For now, I am trying to identify which 5 series platform mates have the stiffest steering. Then, I will figure out how to apply those settings from that stiffer car.
I wonder if all F10 EPS calibrations are the same for a given build period. I found even at the beginning of production, all F10 steering didn't appear equal. I sensed that cars with the Sport Auto (SAT) were heavier weighted.

Whether that is to do with the comfort/sport calibrations being different from cars without the DDC switchable option/toggle I don't know. It was one reason I would only have a car with SAT, as the steering appeared better calibrated.


If so, may be worth getting to view the data for different builds.
