Drive dynamics control switch

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The driving dynamic control switch and the gear selector switch are used to operate Dynamic Driving Control. The new Dynamic Driving Control has the following features:

  1. All of the drive and driving stability control systems installed in the vehicle are activated. The central control unit for this is the Integrated Chassis Management (ICM).
  2. A choice of 3 programs is available:
    • ECO PRO
    • NORMAL
    • SPORT

Dynamic Driving Control influences, as well as other systems, Electronic Damper Control (EDC).

The drive dynamic control switch is connected to the control unit for Integrated Chassis Management (ICM). The ICM control unit places the signals on the FlexRay.
