How do I know if my car has adaptive suspension?
Could someone share with me how can I know if I have adaptive suspension?
Getting to realoem.com doesn't help much, because its catalog doesn't list specific parts that fit my VIN number, but all parts that fits that series with a lot of considerations/disclaimers that to be honest, I don't understand. Getting to my local dealer is not very useful either, their answers are ambiguous... Here's the main details of the car that my VIN number displays in realoem Any pointers? Thanks!!! |

All m235i's have adaptive as standard I believe. Do you have it based on that list.
Put your vin into an online tool it should show up as a feature. |

Don't trust the codes ;-) In some parts of the World the adaptive suspensions is a standard in some other countries you must "mark" the adaptive suspension if you order your M235i or 228i.
If your suspensions looks like this: http://blog-int.kwautomotive.net/ada...lay-coilovers/ bybase valve at your damper strut or damper housing you have an adaptive suspension. |

I think that "sensation" is not a proof that we do or don't have adaptive suspension. |
