M-Adaptive (EDC) Delete, Bilstein B8 questions
Hello all.
I'm replacing the OEM EDC struts in my 2015 F30 with Bilstein B8s. Should I retain the m-adaptive sway bar links or should I replace them with the non-adaptive? The M-Adaptive cars have a different part number for the right side, 31306792212, in addition to the part on both sides of a non-EDC car, 31306792211. Also, I assume nothing special needs to be done with the one side of the car that has the "backwards" sway bar link mount on the strut? Does the slight angle change of the mount not change anything? I guess since it's just a swaybar, the answer is no. Danke.

If the L/R B8 struts have the same PN then you'll need to change the end link. If you get the xDrive B8 struts (will work for the RWD car), which have different L/R PNs, then your existing end links will work.
