I'm not seeing how to do the 30 days free on the connected drive website- if that's true, definitely the best way to see if it's worth it to me. I sent a message to the connected drive email to see if there is a free trial available.

Bumping this thread - has anyone bought the adaptive m suspension through connected drive for $500? I am considering but want to see if it is worth it for a 2020 x5 x line (no m sport package).

I’ve paid for it on both X5s I’ve owned sequentially. It’s that good in my opinion - on the second car ai literally ordered it from the dealership parking lot on pickup day. I drive most of the time in Sport Individual with steering and dampers set to Sport, and the power train in Comfort.

I prefer the bounce once and done when going over road imperfections, and the added performance in curves.

In my case, this purchase was for a new 2024 X5 40i. When I went into the Connected Drive app on my phone, the 30-day free trial purchase was listed as an option, along with the option for purchasing it for one year ($200) or lifetime ($500, I recall). Perhaps the 30-day free trial is tied to it being a 2024 X5?

Correction on pricing:
$580.00 for 3 years
$950 One-time purchase (lifetime, presumably).

Based on my ownership track record and other factors (CEL issues, anyone?), I doubt I will own this 2024 X5 longer than 4 years (3 years is much closer to my average length of BMW ownership), so I'm purchasing 3 years now and will add another year at that point if I'm still in this vehicle.

I'm understanding this as something people can get if they didn't order the full blown M Sport line, right? They can separately have the M Sport suspension tuning/coding applied?

If you have the package, you already paid for it?

That is correct. It is for those that don't have air suspension and have the xLine/Sport suspension.

I haven't heard back yet but I am assuming they only offer 30 day free trial with new purchases. I doubt that they will be able to offer anything other than what is in the connected drive store.

I finally heard back. They don't offer a 30 free trial but you can cancel within the first 30 days.

Hope someone can clarify this for me. I just added the trial for the Adaptive M Suspension.

Does that impact Comfort mode at all, or does it only change the suspension when the dampers are set to Sport?

I drove the car after adding it and was tryng to determine if comfort mode is impacted at all.

Thanks

It should have no impact on Comfort mode, just tightening up Sport.

The adaptive m suspension is Floaty to me I can’t imagine the air ride on this car that would be like riding in a boat I’m at the point of trying hr sport springs to stiff it up a bit and lower it a inch
