Deleting air suspension error message after installing coilovers

Who has done this and what did you use? I have INPA and carsoft and would love to code the X5 so that it stops looking for air suspension and therefore throws an inactive code. Any help at all would be appreciated, I’m not at all a newb but am inexperienced in this particular area.

So I was able to delete the code based on this. You simply use P.A.Soft / BMW Coder 1.4 and code the LCM, light control module, to ignore the CEL on the gauge cluster for air suspension innactive. This makes the vehicle recognize the EHC, electronic height control, module and it's errors but it won't throw a code to the driver. It did take all of 10 seconds as it's nothing more than a list of check boxes for each and every error that the gauge cluster will throw.

This isn't quite recoding the vehicle for coil springs but it does eliminate the annoying error code

DO NOT TURN OFF your antivirus if you install the software off that disc.
I've bought 2 lately (one just to see if the first was a random issue) and both discs have a trojan that sets you up as part of a botnet.
