M Sport Pkg option conflicting info?
Looking the at 2011 brochure for the M Sport Pkg, it shows it includes:
Variable Sport Steering (VSS) Electronic Damping Control (EDC) Performance Control (PC) Does the M Sport Pkg include VSS, EDC and PC. By decoding the VIN of a vehicle with the M Sport Pkg, it doesn't appear have these options. Am I missing something here. Is the brochure wrong? Is the decoder wrong? So confusing... Decoding the VIN for a vehicle with the M Sport Pkg, it does not show VSS or EDC only PC. Decoding the VIN for a vehicle with Sport Activity Pkg and Dynamic Handling Pkg it shows VSS, EDC and PC |

This is interesting to say the least. In the past 15 minutes I have been trying to formulate an answer for you to no avail.
Just to tickle brains a bit more, on my 2016 I have the M sport pack but I dont have DHP, only EDC and VSS.

BMW options are a pain, I'm also trying to figuring out what I have.
Also, every country wont have the same option list. This is probably the reason why 95% of bmw sellers are saying ''fully equipped bmw'' when its not. |

The real question I had though, is the brochure wrong by showing that EDC & VSS are included with the M Sport Pkg? Since several VINs I decoded that had the M Sport Pkg but did not list EDC or VSS. |

My guess is the brochure is wrong...is it a US version or EUR version brochure? Maybe the EUR versions got the VSS and EDC with M-Sport and they left it off the US versions (I wouldnt be surprised)?
My 2011 X3 35i with M-Sport and no DHP does not have VSS nor EDC.

Yes, the brochure is the US version, it only list xDrive28i and xDrive 35i. |
