Can anyone explain what they use the different suspension settings for on the premium model. I don't seem to notice any differences when I switch you would think something would light up on the dash when a different setting is engaged.

I don't notice any difference either. In my LS going from Sport to Comfort is noticeably different but I don't notice it with the GX. The LS lights up on the dash when you put it on either setting but on the GX nothing lights up.

I can tell you there is a difference in the dampening rate of the shocks. You can really notice the difference when towing or pushing the vehicle at high speeds. From what I understand the system is also computer controlled to actively make adjustments on the fly. That may be why under normal driving it is hard to tell the difference. The funny part is you would think the sport mode would work better when towing, not. The comfort setting gives a smoother ride when towing on the highway, yet the sport mode is better at high speed (not towing). I think the comfort setting allows the suspension to absorb the forces of the trailer.

Its noticible in my GX. If I put it in comfort and go over the parkade bumps etc it bounces quite a bit more, its definately more plush in comfort.

That is how I notice the difference in my LS, I live in a development with speed humps and I notice the rebound when going over those in the LS is very different depending on the mode. When I go over those in the GX I don't notice that much of a difference. I just switched to sport mode and although not much of a difference to me, I think I like it better.
