You were using EDC for every mile you were driving.

You mean you didn't use the different manual setting levels.


I read that the F30 system is working in a very similar way, so definitely an active, continuously changing, system.

Even the older EDC system is active damping, continuously working from soft settings and adjusting as we drive. Soft where possible and adjusting the damping curve with load, speed, direction of travel, transverse and vertical acceleration, etc.. The manual settings only give us different levels of continuous damping.

So we are not into the predictability of a passive, but manually adjustable damper system.
