Hello, I have a Specialized Turbo Tero 4.0 EQ and I’m starting to go more and more off road so I would like to have less air in my fork to make the suspension smoother, does anyone know how to do that?
How to release air from fork on Specialized Tero 4.0 EQ ?

It is a Schrader valve under the cover at the left leg of the fork. Just press a pin inside the valve.

It should look like that:
Perhaps your fork is a steel coil, not air fork?!

What does the other side look like? It should say Air on the cap. You really need a suspension pump to do it correctly. These also have a pressure release button. Normally you would pump it check the sag with the O-ring on the stanchion, then pump it about 1/2 bar extra before removing the pump. This is because some pressure is lost when removing the pump. Under the fork should be a nob for adjusting how fast the fork reacts.

yes I checked and my fork is a steel coil, is it worth upgrading to an air one ?

If you are happy with what you have today, probably not. The big difference between the steel and air coil fork is the latter would be more light weight.
