Dynamic damper control unavailable on 540i?

phoenixbmwlife · 04-19-2017, 11:21 AM

Can anyone explain why dynamic damper control is not available as an option on the 540i? I see its available on the 540xDrive and also on the 530i as an option but not on the 540i. Am I missing something?

NM I just saw it in the Handling Package.

you can also get as stand alone option in the "Options" screen. Only $700 by itself vs. $3500 package.

EDIT: At least for the x-Drive... did not check "i"

Don't dare order a 5er without it. They float like grandpa's 1970 buick.

Tried a 530e on standard suspension, and it was firmer than the f10, and not floaty.

I wanted to get it but not at the price they were charging for the package for the 540i. I don't understand why it's not available as a stand alone option for $1,000 like it is with the 530i. But I'm sure it will be fine without it.
