Nope...no errors.

It's only when you go and put in coilovers does it throw errors. Even then...the errors caused by putting in coilovers can be coded out.

Do you buy chance remember where you got them from? I also have a 535i xdrive. And were you able to install at home or via shop?
I bought mine from a member here that never installed them. I got them installed by a shop.

I think I read that you have adaptive drive?
I've been debating on upgrading spring with H&R. I know it may expedite the life my OEM shocks. How has it been for you? I also have EDC functions.

I'm interested in the ACS springs found here:
https://www.vividracing.com/schnitze...150778527.html

What shocks are recommended with these? ACS home page doesn't list an alternative set.

If you plan to install springs on your own then I'd say its more worth it since the springs are cheap and even cheaper if you buy them used. If you plan to buy them new and have a shop install them, at that point you'd likely be in the cheaper coilover range. Something like Megan's or Godspeed. A tiny bit more and you'd be better of with BC Coilovers.
