Sport Individual won’t configure...

Have a ‘19 540ixMsport without the adaptive suspension. When I try to configure Sport Individual it only allows me to change engine and transmission settings, it will not allow me to change the steering. Is this normal?

Out of interest have you recently imported a profile? (From USB/online etc)

I’m the only driver. There should just be my own profile. Nothing was imported. Are you implying that in your car steering is configurable?

You need the adaptive package to configure the setting. It is a waste of money. The car is fine with the normal setting for everyday driving

Correct. Adaptive drive and adaptive suspension are two totally different things.

I have a 2017 540i X Drive without adaptive suspension just like the OP (except mine is a UK car obviously).

I can configure steering in Sport+ Individual - either comfort or sport.

So I can have comfort steering with sport+ engine and sport transmission.

Again - I have standard passive M Sport suspension, no special steering options either. Totally standard in those respects.

Typically with bmw if an option isn't configurable, it doesn't show in iDrive. Did you do any FDL coding?

Thanks for the replies. Looks like I have to bring it in! No, I’ve not done any coding (yet).
