550i xdrive m sport 2011- do I have DHP?

Or is it only possible on rwd versions? Does the M sport and DHP both have the selectable modes. Comfort, normal, sport, and sport+?

The best way to tell what options you have is to enter the last 7 digits of your VIN at the link below.

On a 2011 car it should show option 223 Dynamic damper control. On the iDrive when you go into sport mode you should show a chassis option to select. The ride firmness should be very apparent between the modes.

I have the option for comfort to sport+ with the button next to the shifter. Sweet I do have it, says Dynamic dampening control and dynamic drive. Codes 223 and 229. Thx for the link.

Here is some marketing stuff from BMW about what DDC is. I'm pretty sure in 2011 DDC was required on a M-Sport making the M-Sport pretty expensive hence somewhat rare.

Have you had your N63 CCP done yet?
