Being picky, sport + is not changing anything more than sport. Sport+ (in addition to current configured sport settings) is only knocking out part of the DSC programme.

For the car to have any variation in the strut damping settings you must buy (at minumum) the Adjustable Damping package and have the additional 'comfort' setting on the toggle switch.

No technical evidence whatsoever to believe that options like 2TB alter the damping. The car will feel different with setting to sport, but it isn't the damping that is changed. Confirmed by BMW UK.
