I don't have the air bag suspension so I can't tell you what can be done. But, there is an EHC (electronic height control) module in the menu (I can't access the module since I don't have it to see). I know several people have disabled the inactive warning message in the dash through the IKE module in BMW Scanner 1.4.

Hello buddy,
yes i have entered this EHC module and there are no problems with it i have no errors and any inactive warning messages but my question is how to calibrate it because one side is higher than the other... and is it possible to calibrate with BMW Scanner 1.4???

I just don't know coolpapabel, I don't have the air suspension so I can't access the menus on my X5. Sorry.

Anyone know how to activate the "panic" alarm on an X5? On my 1998 M3 you hold down the lock button on the key/remote for a few seconds and the alarm sounds.

Sit on the remote when you least expect it.

Lean up against something while working on something (always gets you).

Sit the remote under something heavy while moving stuff around.



That said basically holding down a button does it. I haven't actually done it on purpose so I don't know WHICH button or buttons do it but holding down buttons definitely sets it off
