You lose the EDC functionality, when you go with any suspension kit that includes aftermarket shocks & struts.
It's interesting that BMW chose that route with Sachs when there is something already available off the shelf like the Porsche PASM compatible coilover system. Had they adopted that system, life would have been a lot easier, coz you see all the options for Porsche PASM out there, some even with the nose lift function to prevent scrapes.
