M Sport.. Dynamic.. Adaptive.. what do I have?!?!

DaWhole9 · 08-26-2022, 04:46 PM

I have a 2016 535i. Its got M Sport package and M Sport Suspension. It also has luxury, drivers assist, divers assist plus, and premium packages if that matters. Does this car have electronic dampers or not? I don't have the comfort+ setting for DDC, I have Sport +, Sport, Comfort and ECO. Is there Adaptive suspension AND M Sport or does the M Sport package remove Adaptive dampers? Just trying to understand this suspension. Thanks!!

If you have M Sport suspension, you do not have adaptive suspension. To confirm, pull any wheel off the car and see if there is a wire connected to the damper. You can probably turn the wheel to one side and check as well. If you do, you have EDC.

Awesome. Thats what i was thinking. I have M Sport and not Adaptive. So i could go with coilovers if I wanted without losing any functionality. Thx!
