So I have a 2013 335i xDrive Sportline with Adaptive suspension, but when I put the car into sport or sport+ there is no "Configure Drivetrain or Chassis" options like I see in some cars. All I get is "Show Sport Display" which is just a HP/TQ gauge. Is this a feature that was added later and my iDrive is out of date or am I just not seeing it. I've looked through all the settings menus.

*edit* I'm an idiot and I don't actually have adaptive suspension according to the VIN checker.

You can code it to be able to configure Sport mode in iDrive. Just need a coding interface. I used Bimmercode with a VGate adapter.

I don't have adaptive suspension either. The configurations work as such:

Drivetrain & Chassis: factory Sport mode setting for both throttle response and steering stiffness.

Drivetrain Only: Sport mode throttle response with lighter steering feel (as in Comfort mode).

Chassis Only: Heavier Sport mode steering feel with Comfort mode level throttle response.

I tend to keep it in Chassis Only because I prefer the stiffer steering feel but might not necessarily want/need Sport mode throttle response when I'm commuting or just putting around.
