So the descriptions are different but vague. The general conversation online seems to be that there are 2 settings for the suspension- comfort and sport.... but maybe there are three?

Any other thoughts/insights?
See post #5 in this thread: https://www.2addicts.com/forums/show....php?t=1522701

I found that chart invaluable as I tried to understand how BMW implemented its different modes - although, I can't say I understand everything in the chart. The manual is, of course, a joke, and not only in this regard.

My take is that there are four principal modes in our cars: ECO, Comfort, Sport, and Sport+. You will notice that the main difference between Sport and Sport+ is that the latter invokes Dynamic Traction Control (DTC).

I don't use either of the Sport modes, so I can't share any experiences of them. The modes I do use are Comfort on the street and DSC OFF on the track.
