Main reason I took it was to show the DHP strut difference. I'm pretty sure it's that cylinder coming out of the side of the struts. There were a lot of threads in the past wondering if M Sport came with electronic damper control (DHP) if you didn't order DHP specifically on top of it.

Gave the X3 it's first clay and coat of sealant today, including wheels face and back side. Tomorrow is the interior with leather treatment.
