Mag Ride Adjustments

[tlsmikey]

New Yukon Denali owner here. I have a 2017 that we just picked up with 50k miles on it. I've noticed that it has the magride shocks on the vehicle as I see the cables to the shocks as well as the height rod and actuator. However, I'm not seeing any way to adjust the stiffness of the shocks through the settings menu inside the car.

Are these magride shocks adjustable at all or are we stuck with the stock computer settings?

The GM Magneride is NOT adjustable on the 2015-20 model years.
The new 2021 has the adjustable ride height knob, but only on select trims.

There are certainly ways to get rid of it. Take a look at Xineering's new OBDSS product! This link is to a video produced by Xineering, featuring an ACTUAL employee of this Orlando company -> Will.

It's not something you can adjust but you can re-calibrate it with a bi-directional scan tool or a laptop with GDS2 software and the MDI2 adapter

So for people using AFM delete modules that connect to the OBD port I guess you would have to choose which mod to use at a single given time

You can purchase an OBDII splitter.
I got mine from Xineering out of Orlando.
I don't think it's listed on their website yet

Take a look at:

Okay, that is good to know adds this as an option then.

Can you adjust the rod at the top of the strut where the wire plugs in to correct the stiffness or the opposite?
