Completely correct. I also had an 09 335iX and now have a 13 335iX.

Unless you have sport package (the one that allows all 4 driving modes: Eco pro, comfort, sport, and sport +), you are unqualified to answer this.

As carsdoc previously stared, I also think the car in comfort mode is about the same as me e90 was , but once you go to sport it becomes much tighter. It's is by design -- and is the F30 coding holy grail -- how to toggle the sport steering settings to on during comfort mode.
