1. No, what I meant is f85(X5m) rotors are used with stock e70 x5m calipers and pads, not e70 4.8 ones.
2. Unfortunatly I was not there during the install, but when I was doing my research, at first I saw wires/tubes myself, but in reality it is just a regular shock, just a bit shorter, so if you use the shock mount from a 3 liter X5, means you can use any shock that fit on e70 with or without adaptive suspension. Shock mount is the key. So far I had no code, but I am prepared)
This is how the rear shocks on adaptive suspension look like after being taken out of assembly:

1.You said you used f85 (X5m) rotors with e70 front pads? So e70 non m and X5m rotors are interchangeable?
2.X5 comes with adaptive suspension, at least mine. The struts and shocks have cables attached, so the only option to replace them is going OEM. You said you used "Bilstein 4600 struts (24-143967.)" Didn't the car throw a code for the adaptive suspension?
3.You switch to regular suspension on the rear. Can you post the part numbers you used to delete the airbags? I have always wanted to do that on mine. Pictures would be awesome!
Thanks!
