Right so update here
Huge thank you to Andrew at SpaceyTech Support, he took the time to dive into this matter despite it being pretty niche in the greater SPA scheme of things haha.
It took a couple of attempts but we got it in the end.
So you need to code 58, 59 and 60 to 01. Andrew had to update Orbit to remove the SUM module ECU when these options were selected.
This removes the air suspension, adaptive shocks and height sensors from the car by removing the SUM module from the config. If you code it back you will need to recalibrate the air suspension as the SUM reverts to factory settings. I wasn't able to attempt recalibration so just moved onto disabling the SUM completely. I'm sure if I revert to stock i will have to attempt to refill the system and recalibrate etc. But for now I can now look at aftermarket rear shocks for the car and remove the adaptive stock rears.
However the SUM module will throw suspension failure errors if it remains plugged in. So removing CF51 fuse from the passenger footwell fuse box removes that problem. I had removed the fuse for the compressor already as i didn't want it over cycling whilst i was messing with the SUM module stuff
I have the indirect TPMS setup in my car, and funny enough removing the height sensors as well as the adaptive shocks will throw a TPMS service required error, it seems the car may use the height sensors as part of the indirect TPMS monitoring system. I changes the TPMS system config to 01 - without TPMS and it removed the TPMS from the menu and all errors associated with that. I found the indirect TPMS rather useless at detecting a flat tyre or low pressure so don't miss it. I may look for the sensors to get the proper reading etc and reactivate TPMS if needed.
No height sensors means the headlights won't self level, and are at a default height but all the bending etc options still function perfectly. I will just set the headlights to the exact height i prefer/need manually if it appears they are too low etc.
You cannot change the height sensors to a normal VDDM option, there appears to be no wiring connecting the height sensors to VDDM module if you have the SUM module, i got various no sensor connected/found on the VDDM errors when attempting this. If you are adamant to have height sensors for headlight leveling then you will likely have to wire in the sensors to the VDDM physically, i don't care so won't attempt this lol
But for now, i have and error free dash board and i can use my aftermarket air suspension system as I wish without headlight errors etc and i can easily revert back to stock suspension and config via Orbit. This was the ultimate goal to be able to disable the factory air in a manner that was reversible.
