Adaptive drive

Post by exon16m » Wed Jun 01, 2016 8:14 pm

Little confused.

I have a 2013 E70 with adaptive drive, but the module in the boot (4) is not there. The sensors and adaptive dampers are but no control module or wires.

Did the module become integrated elsewhere ?

would be intrested to know if anyone else with adaptive drive does not have the module in the boot right side

I had Adaptive Drive in my E60 550i and the thing you could tell it aside from was a big hydraulic pump in between the rear anti-roll bars.  It was this which controlled the reaction to the forces acting on the vehicle during cornering.  IIRC it had a big sign on it not to use it as a jacking point.

Also, I presume you have the Sport Button behind the gearshifter?
