Confusion reigns. Just stop calling 'adaptive' anything 'sport' and that may clarify?

Blame BMW for that one. When you order adaptive drive guess what's imprinted on the adaptive drive button behind the shifter on the console: "sport." Go figure.

I have adaptive drive and it has a sport setting.

But it is not "the" sport suspension.

The confusion stems from the old "sport package" which included AD. As such I beleive it had to include sport suspension delete. Now they've made AD a separate option. I personally beleive they just left in 'sport delete' language in the descriptor.

Love to find out what springs and struts are REALLY in all the packages...

In order to find out which springs, you need to list which options you have from these:

Self-leveling suspension

S226A

Sports suspension settings

S2VAA

Chassis & suspens. setup"Adaptive Drive"

S300A

Emergency spare wheel
