Hi Radudel There are a couple of lifts I also have the 2.5 Diesel not chipped though...check out the PRG lift, the Radflo with Eibach springs (ones I'm buying) and also Calmini. Do a search and you should find a couple threads with those keywords. Apparently only above 2" are the upper arms nee...

I tested with on all of them with VDC (equiv for them) on and off. I not a fan of the RAV4, the CRV was better but I'd compare them both handling wise to the older Xtrail. I've a soft spot for the CRV. We had the vehicles for around 2 weeks each and for the company bought the Xtrail 2.0 Diesel 6sp a...
