Dynamic Damper Control Reliability?

fueledbymetal · 12-04-2014, 05:48 AM

I have an order in for a 2015 M3 (but still have time to make changes) and plan to keep it beyond the warranty period. I'm interested in the Adaptive M Suspension, but I don't want to worry about having to fix it down the road. How has the reliability been for e90/92/93 Dynamic Damper Control? I figure that would be a good indicator of the reliability for the 2015 system.

Very reliable, no known issues

Haven't read about any reliability issues. Dampers are technically a wear item that you'll want to replace around 50-75K depending on your usage in order to maintain proper handling, though, and of course the active dampers are a lot more expensive, but that's the price you pay for having a trick suspension.
