Can I lower f10 with adaptive suspension ?

MiguelAlvarez · 09-04-2011, 04:02 AM

Hello,
i'm new on this forum, I live in Paris.
I've actually an e60 530xd Mpacket and I'll buy a f10 535i (or 535d) I hesitate between those two engines.

But I've one question.

Can we lower the suspension (with AC Schnitzer kit or H&R or Billsetein) a f10 which has the adaptive suspension ? We can recognize a f10 which has adaptive suspension with the buton near the gearbox right ?

I'm afraid of the suspension changing can trigger problem on the adaptive suspension.

Someone has a idea ?

Thank a lot.

No problems whatsoever with lowering springs --- go with ACS .

I have an F10, with adaptive drive, with ACS springs. Love it.

Sorry but i may confuse between adaptive suspension and EDC...

I've already checked that i can set ACS springs on a normal suspension or a M-suspension (in this case there is not diference because the M-suspension is already droped...)

But with the EDC no problem ??

They are the same, and the M-sport is not already lowered. It's just as high as the standard suspension.

are you sure ? because on the online configurator when you select the M-suspension you can see that the high of the car changes

You can't go by the configurator. My M-sport 550i was very high until I had it lowered.

I have noticed that all 550i are a bit higher than the other models... why ? like if you have the xdrive

The m-sport suspension lowers the car by 10mm, and that's not much.
