*SOLD* Intrax Control Module (Ride Height Override)
 

Hi all,

For sale here is my Intrax Module for the 4.4i or 4.8is. I paid 900 from summitracing. I would be willing to let it go for 600. It is in perfect working condition.
Also here is the manual. http://www.dvs-one.com/4sale/ICM-20.6.103.pdf

"Control your ride with Intrax.

These Intrax electronic ICM ride control modules are a good way to lower your air suspension equipped vehicle. These ICM modules will hold your lowered desired height at any level or up to 45 mph before returning to the factory ride height. These kits include the module, a wiring harness, a scotch lock, and instructions."

Using this module gave me this ride height

Maybe your price is a little high for some people.

hi i am interested
can i pay you via pay pal and can u send it to me via usps

Ok then no problem can you perhaps tell me where can i buy it online
Except for summit racing cause getting thing there is complicated

thanks in advance:thumbup:

so it holds it only up to 45mp/h? whats the point of having it then?

Sorry if i didnt clarify but the unit gives you 3 settings
1.OEM settings
2.Raise speed limit to 45mph instead of OEM 25mph
3.Allow ride height to stay at any speed

Thank You!
Makes sense...:)
How difficult is the install and how do you control it?via laptop or some kinda gadget inside of the car?

was pretty easy just remove the glovebox and wire it in to the harness. took me about 30 minutes. to control it there is a switch on the unit for the setting you want, then you just choose your ride height if your x has the ride height option.

does it work for pre-facelift as well?

Wait so when you install this you have the opition of raising and lowering your X5?

Where is the button to raise and lower?

Does it work on 01 X5 4.4i??

Intrax Suspension Electronic ICM Ride Control Modules - SummitRacing.com - it in fact only works up to 45mph.

Also, I thought my 4.4 only has rear air, so how do I confirm if it has front air also? You've never mentioned if you still have the button to control the ride height, all you've shown is the module itself.

If you have the ride height adjustment option, you will see a 3 position switch just to the left of the steering column on the dash. Also take a look in your front wheel well and see if you have coil springs. If you do, you don't have the adjustable ride height option. The air suspension has no springs, front or rear, just the air bag strut assemblies.

Not sure about the 45 mph threshold.

Only 4.8is has all air suspension.

So if the 4.8 is the only X w/ full air suspension, what's the point of this Intrax controller...make the ass sag like it has a full load, or jack it up like a muscle car?

:rofl:
Text from BMW docs:
Self-leveling rear air suspension(optional 3.0i, standard 4.4i &
4.8is)Air springs replace conventional coil springs in the rear suspension.
To keep the X5 level even when heavy loads are carried
(cargo area or trailer tongue load), ride-height sensors recognize
changes in the vehicle’s attitude and signal an electrically powered
air compressor to increase or decrease the pressure in the
air springs.

Adjustable ride height (optional 3.0i & 4.4i, requires
Sport Package; standard 4.8is)
The 3.0i option includes the self-leveling rear suspension and
adjustable ride height; as selfleveling rear air suspension is
standard on the 4.4i, the option for that model is for adjustable
ride height only and is therefore priced lower. The full system
with adjustable ride height is standard on the 4.8is.
With this system, air springs are the springing medium at all four
wheels. Their self-leveling effect at the rear is as described under
self-leveling rear air suspension, above.
Adjustable ride height allows the driver to select any of three
ride heights for the entire vehicle. Via a dash switch to the left of
the steering column, the height can be set to –
• Normal
• Offroad (25 mm/1.0 in. higher
than normal) for increased
ground clearance
• Access (35 mm/1.4 in. lower
than normal) for greater ease
of entry and exit.

The offroad setting can be used at speeds up to approximately
31 mph, at which speed the vehicle automatically returns to
the normal setting if offroad has been selected. The access
setting remains effective until the vehicle reaches approximately
22 mph, or can be engaged if the vehicle is traveling approximately
16 mph or less. All adjustments occur steplessly, and the pneumatics are controlled to effect an essentially even raising or lowering at all
four wheels – although under some conditions of loading one
end of the vehicle may move slightly more quickly than the
other. If the front or rear moves more quickly, the control system
will stop motion there until the other end catches up. Three LEDs indicate the system’s current state:
A steadily illuminating LED indicates that a particular level has been reached; a blinking LED indicates that a level has
been selected and the system is adjusting.
If height adjustment is attempted while a trailer is attached to the
vehicle, the following occurs:
• If already at normal height, the vehicle cannot be raised or lowered.
• If at one of the other settings and the vehicle is at a standstill,
the driver can return the vehicle to normal height, after which it cannot be raised or lowered.
• If the vehicle begins moving at one of the other settings, it will
automatically return to the normal height at 22 mph (if in access) or 31 mph (if in offroad).

X5 4.8is features
4.8-liter Valvetronic V-8 engine
Whereas the 4.4i’s engine is the new 4.4-liter Valvetronic V-8, the
new 4.8is model gets an even larger, more powerful version of
this advanced engine concept.

Specially calibrated 6-speed automatic transmission
Like the 4.4i model, the 4.8is comes standard with a 6-speed
automatic transmission; its calibration, however, is sportier
and specific to this model.

Standard adjustable ride height and self-leveling
This is the only X5 model on which both the adjustable ride
height and self-leveling rear suspension (via air springs front
and rear) are standard. The 4.8is’ spring and shock-absorber
calibration is also firmer, thus sportier, than that of even a
Sport Package-equipped 4.4i model.

Incorrect, get your facts straight :stickpoke There are 3 settings on the Intax module: factory, reset to normal ride height @ 50 kph, and total override. You raise and lower the X at any speed, any time. Installation manual (see pg 3): http://www.dvs-one.com/4sale/ICM-20.6.103.pdf

The Intrax only works on X5 with full suspension, including 4.4i's that were produced with that option. It raises the car (front and rear) evenly. Check out my thread about my install of the Intrax module on a 2002 4.4i: http://www.Xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...2002-4-4i.html

Full air was an option on the 4.4i

"Option", not standard(required sports package). ;)

I said option

Thanks Zerochief for clarifying. Yes for 4.4i you would need to have the "Optioned" Adjustable ride height.

That's just how I interpreted it from Summit's wording. Sorry.

Ok fair enough... Summits description for this product has been in erroneous in the past. I actually emailed their tech team some time back when they had the description as a spring kit. They can't seem to get it right.

DVS - your welcome. Thats a great price reduction. Members, you won't find it anywhere even close to what DVS is asking. It's just south of $900 usd from Summit, their only distributor. If you have the suspension rocker switch, then you can install this product on your X5:

So, dumb question then...what defines a Sport? My X is pretty stripped down since it has no sunroof, DSP or changer. It does have different wheels than what I've seen on most X's, has the cold weather package and sliding cargo shelf. It has load leveling, but I'm assuming it's only in the rear. Are the red and blue lines visible in the engine bay to tell me that the front is load leveling?

is this still for sale?

:thumbup: wishful thinking.

Yes Rastafari its still for sale. Interested?

Did this sell yet?

FYI Ebay failed me, i still can't believe no one wants this.

I don't think the problem is people wanting it, it's spending $650 to lower their car using this controller. I know what you paid for it, so you just gotta find the right buyer.

$450 for xoutpost buyers

Someone should buy this and take it apart just to see what makes it work. I wouldn't be surprised if it was made w/ like $20 worth of parts.

Seen you think this is worth $20 parts why not just buy it and crack it open to see it for your self.:stickpoke

OP contact Rastafarai he might want it.;)

All my money is going to what I preach...redoing my entire cooling system in the X5 before I hit 100k this spring. Spending $450 on something my X can't even use wouldn't help anyone but the members here cause I don't have 4 wheel self-leveling as is. If I did, that'd be another story.

I'm not trying to distract from the sale, I hope someone buys it that can actually use it...then cracks it open for us ;)

Thanks mrbmw i will contact rastafari

I said I was interested in it, along w/ 3 other people, 1 of which you won't sell it to because he's out of the country. 2 people have said that maybe it's too much, I said that I know what you paid for it, so even $650 or $450 is a good price, yet you single me out. Unfortunately I don't have the correct suspension and I wished you good luck in your sale. I don't see what's silly about that. Once again, good luck.

I want this soO bad. Too bad tax season hit me hard this year.
If its still for sale in a few months i will definitely be PMing you.

Will buy it for $300. Let me know when/if you get there.

///Bruce

I offered that a while back.

I think if a vendor made these and sold them in the $300 range they would do pretty well.
