    what shocks do u think are the best for lowered springs

    Sorry, yes it is the GT Gas. So I take it the Monroe Sports GT Gas are much better than the KYB and Boge shocks. How much for the GT Gas shocks front and rear? Cheers.

    Reverse Sensors

    Have you checked if the sensors are actually enabled/on as you can turn them off. To check you will need to go to the settings by using the scroll button on your steering wheel. Might be useful to read the owners manual for more info on this.
