Just looking at the UK stats ...

I thought all cars have Performance Control (2VG), but actually only 43% of cars appear to.

Electronic Damper Control, which I thought was called Variable Damper Control (223) as I understand it allows you to change between Normal and Sports Suspension. I am trying to understand if VDC has any dynamic or adaptive qualities compared to the non 223 option, and what effect that actually has on ride quality.

Would you notice you have VDC if you never used the rocker switch to change to Sport or Sport+.

I have read many of the posts on VDC and I still am not 100%!

What's Performance Control?
