Maybe it is extra in the USA.Without this extra the suspension settings cannot be changed but you can change the sensitivity of the steering and accelerator response using the standard buttons near the iDrive controller.
I paid for the option, so I have everything necessary. I was only commenting that I cannot really feel much (if any) difference when the setting is changed using the console rocker switch (except for throttle response, which is quite apparent).
