Self leveling suspension & WDH?
I tried searching this first, as I'm sure it's been covered many times. But I must be doing something wrong with the search function, I keep getting zero results on all my searches. Anyway... N...

"Self leveling..." I don't think I've ever seen it referred to using that term before. I've seen "ride height adjustment" or "auto ride" before. Maybe that's why you can't find any information?
Ultimately I don't think it matters. The WDH is mostly for the front end, while the "self leveling" suspension is for the rear.
If you adjust the WDH with the suspension off, it will pump a little air in to level the rear when you turn it back on. This may reduce the WDH spring bar tension and cause the front to lift a little, but you were close enough in the first place.
If you adjust the WDH with the suspension on, it may let a little air out to level the rear. This may increase the WDH spring bar tension to increase slightly, pushing the front end down a little. Again, still close enough for horseshoes, hand grenades, and government work.
This is for the initial adjustment only. There is nothing stopping you from making adjustments based on how it feels to you after you drive it around a little.
