And although it is in my list, I couldn't delete M Sport suspension if I have VDC...

..weird but a pity, tried a couple with Sport Suspension before and quite unforgiving over lumps and bumps

The online configuration is all fine now... it was a Beta or something when I first tried or, didn't link all the options properly

Deleting the M sport suspension is only possible if you haven't opted for another suspension than M sport. Since you've got the VDC, there's no M sport suspension to delete.

Yes, they have changed the config site since I ordered (UK), you now have to ADD M Sport suspension if you want it... it is not a default like it used to be on M Sport models.... (and you can have both VDC and M Sport Suspension if you want according to BMW)

Also good is you have to ADD smokers package, not default anymore

20th March, roll on

Technically VDC deletes M Sport Suspension

Is VDC any different on a msport compared to a SE? ie ride height , is that the same regardless whether it's SE or msport?

Right, I know. Poorly worded on my part.

As I understand it, no. Only m-sport suspension will lower the car.

Correct

You can actually see it on the German Configurator
Click "Details" under M Sport Pack and then change between the Suspensions available. It will drop the car height only with the M Sport suspension



Not quite so easy to see below
But if you save both images and then switch between the 2 you will see it go from lower to higher suspension.
Lower is M Sport suspension

Cool, haven't thought about using the configurator to check the ride height.

So I played around a bit to see if the new combo, xDrive and M-sport suspension also get a drop, and it did.

But then I checked to see if 530 and 540 got different sized M-sport brakes, and the configurator shows the same size brakes.
