Product details
On the 2011 to 2017 F10 M5 (rear-wheel drive), automatic leveling is a sensible thing to want, and the Executive tier supplies it through four ride-height sensors. A full-color OLED remote shows pressure for the tank and all four corners, and a separate backup remote is included.
Everything for the air side is in the box: a lightweight 5-gallon tank on a carpeted board with four ports, one VIAIR 444C, a 165 to 200 psi switch, two 30 A relays and a four-corner control unit, along with 25 m of 1/4 in line, 1 m of 10 mm line and power wire. The struts bring 36 damping steps, vehicle-matched bags and adjustable lower mounts.
Because the F10 has electronically regulated dampers, there is a relevant option: a KSport Electronic Damping Cancellation Kit, EDCBM240, is available for this application, and such kits eliminate the trouble codes triggered by swapping suspension. Raise time varies with plumbing and pressure. Professional installation is recommended, followed by a recheck at 500 miles or one month. The F10 5 Series sedan RWD, excluding xDrive, is also listed. Confirm fitment with the year, make and model checker or KSport before ordering.
Supported features
The OLED color-screen remote displays tank and bag pressure at all four corners and charges from the included vehicle charger. A standard 4-button backup remote is included.
36 levels of damping adjustment on every strut using the included damping knob.
Sleeve-type and double-bellow bags engineered to match the vehicle and its OEM suspension design.
Fine-tune ride height at any pressure through the adjustable lower mount.
One VIAIR 444C compressor, a 165–200 psi pressure switch and two 30 A relays are included. Raise time depends on the vehicle, plumbing, pressure and installation.
Available on certain MacPherson-strut applications.
