I will pay more attention now but you may be right that it doesn't persist after the system makes those small adjustments once.
I experience it frequently because I leave kneel mode on. The car raises height once per drive, and usually readjusts the first time I come to a complete stop as a result.

If your vehicle is constantly readjusting when you haven't made any height changes, that could be cause for concern. Make sure you're not in auto height mode as that would obviously cause lots of height adjustments.

Where is the adjustment for auto height mode?

The auto button is beneath the height selection control when changing drive modes. Each drive mode has different available options (All-Purpose has low, standard, high; Sport offers only low and lowest, etc.)

Auto is great when roadtripping or if your commute involves plenty of highway miles. The system will automatically alternate back and forth from low to standard depending on vehicle speed. At higher speeds, a lower ride height is more efficient while sacrificing ride quality.
