I've been reading threads about different driving modes and they mentioned modes I didn't remember seeing in my car so I took a look at my owners manual and it showed the same.

Eco Pro, Comfort+, Comfort, Sport and Sport+.

My car (2012 535xi M-Sport) has Eco Pro, Comfort, Sport and Sport+. My Sport mode isn't adjustable either!

Why am I missing Comfort+ and the option to adjust Sport?

Is this an option I'm missing?

As far as I know, you only get comfort+ if you opt for adjustable damper option. If you have sport+ I'd assume you have sport AT which lets you adjust either chassis or drivetrain settings to sport mode..

"Comfort +" will only come with the adjustable dampers.

The topic with the opportunity to adjust the sport mode I have also. During my test-drives I tested all variants of dampers/suspension etc. I tested a 2010 F10 with M-suspension (w/o adjustable dampers) and if I am not completely wrong, it has the option to change steering response etc. But in my 2011 F11, I have no opportunity to adjust in the same way. Simply there is no menu for that...

Did BMW changed something in the software, or am I wrong?

Maybe its one of the M-sport component? because I have it.

Up to August 2011 if you didn't specify VDC or Adaptive Drive you had to have the Sports Auto to get the DDC (Dynamic Drive Control) switch alongside the gear selector. Post August all F10s and F11s have this switch as standard.

Only if you have VDC or Adaptive Drive to you get the additional DDC option of a Comfort setting - pre September 2011 or Comfort + post September 2011.

For me, only one mode.

Sport

Does not fit:
My F11 is 12/2011. I have M-Package, M-Suspension, Sport-Auto but I am not able to adjust the modes.

Guys be mindful of what country OP is from. Every country has different configurations and packaging requirements. Only people in Canada may be able to answer your questions.
