I see... did you try to cycling the power on the car before doing the other modules VO coding?

sometimes you get some driveline malfunction untill you restart the car after coding some modules

yeah, the error stayed with after just the dsc, not sure if you need all of them, I know some relate to the m button in the f80 cars, but I was running out of patience.

seemed easier, I guess if you really want to figure it out there are 6 combos to try. I just chose all 3 at once.

it's all good.... do you remember what was the error by any chance?

I can see the ICM might be needed... but not sure why Kombi or NBT would...

This allows you to dial in what you need for proper corner balancing, shock travel. Welds are clean, build quality was as good as many others. Damping is good. Very Very pleased

Maybe the shocks wont last as long, but the kit and parts are so cheap I can replace the whole show 5 times before getting close to expensive hardware.

Wow, thanks for sharing this! I may have to look into the megans down the line if my shocks go out. I believe there are 3 versions for our cars, which do you have?

[Pparana]

ez street, other versions are linear springs. too rough for dual use car, (mostly track, but I have to drive it to and from track).

These ones right? Only $700 shipped, might have to check them out in person!

[Pparana]

that is them,

I just threw the kitchen sink at them up at sebring. If your not familiar it is considered one of the roughest tracks in the world on suspension. Everything worked great. Could not be happier.

Pparana - any pics of the drop? How much did this lower it from stock? Since I move around a lot, I can't take too much of a drop.

I'll try and snag some next time I am at shop, ride height is 24.75 front, 24.5 rear, easily another inch of height could be added all around.

Meghan has a higher end site with more adjustability too. Euro II Street kit.. These look extremely cheap for what your getting.

This is called the bleeding edge.

Pays to first read someone else DIY, but if not existing you are on your own.

I would have thought speed sensor's data coming out of the ABS/ASC control unit supplied a ps control unit with its needed data.

Possibly though throwing a code in the active suspension backs into abs/ASC.

We need some technical factory flow sheets and bulletin Etc. Wire diagrams may not cut it with CAN data flow etc....

Uhhh... this is all so confusing!

So I bought the KW V1 with EDC - Part #1022000G. I will be installing this very soon, but I keep reading that even this kit will not solve the EDC problem? Please correct me if I am wrong...

I do not want to be in a worse situation just for installing the KW V1 with EDC coilovers... Please help!

My goal is not caring about the change in stiffness when switching modes (stiffness will be at whatever setting the KW V1 sets me at), but I definitely will need to be able to switch from Eco/Comfort/Sport/Sport+.

So is it safe for me to install these coilovers or WTF am I screwed?!

Please someone help! Because if this coilover isn't going to work then I'd rather not install it and look into purchasing something else.

Did you get the KW ones with the brackets for the acceleration sensors? They have versions with and without the brackets.

If so you should be fine. Still need to code out the actual EDC module though.

to remove:

remove 2VF from FA, and VO Code but you have to hit a few more modules:

DSC, KOMBI (to update the instrument panel), ICM, and HU_NBT.

To replace:

add 2VF from FA, and VO Code and code modules below:

DSC, KOMBI, ICM, and HU_NBT.

I just did this today. Everything seems ok but I noticed the front parking sensors may no longer work. Did you experience this Pparana? Also, did you have to unplug anything? I saw reference to needing to unplug an EDC unit on the f8x forums. We'll see if I did it right this weekend at the Glen.

Parking sensors should still work.

You still have to unplug the EDC module in the trunk. Located behind the trunk liner in the right rear of the trunk where the little storage bin is.

[m3cmm]

Parking sensors were working again. And I ended up not having to unplug the EDC module. Most likely because I still had the KW cancellation kit installed.

This seemed to work though...no chassis malfunction error anymore.

I made the mistake of purchasing the version of KW v2's without the EDC kit and was shocked to find (no pun intended) two passenger side pieces identical in part number even for the front. I modified one of the alignment pins as to properly position and all was fine until a seasoned coder and myself attempted to go the coding route as to avoid the purchase of the EDC Delete kit. Long story short, days later and after many attempts and headaches driving with those codes, I just bought the EDC delete Kit on Sale. My question is will installing the edc kit and not having stock placement where the bracket would have been even on the KW V2's with EDC, cause issues. Only one way to find out I know. I've already pulled the EDC unit from the trunk and just want to make sure I don't install these only to find out that specific position on the strut will need to be replicated to get rid of these codes and issues.
