It definitely sounds like the case, as the verbage does suggest it is just merely a function of time, nothing more.

I will give this a try soon as I get hold of a tool that support it. |

Anyone know if the Carly App is capable of the EDC damper reset?

In this case it seems as though the EDC would revert to "thinking" the shocks were new when in fact they are old and worn. So if the EDC is reset and the shocks are still old then the ride would (comfort) theoretically improve but the handling would be degraded. I know this sounds like an odd scenario, but suppose an owner wanted a softer ride then one could reset the EDC mileage to zero and if desired still stiffen the ride back up from the newly improved comfort mode with the other two remaining EDC normal and sport settings. Sorry for my miscellaneous ramblings.

Come to think of it, it is a few years not since I measured the (individual) EDC chock current but when I did it measured according to spec (IIRC 0.8/1.6/2.0Amps in the diff settings). Still have the wire "tool", maybe I'll make another measurement now after some years have passed to see if its possible to confirm (assumingly should be tad lower current). |

In theory, a system that adjusts for wear would be neat and I wouldn't want to "trick" the system into treating old dampers like a new set, but (1) we aren't sure what factors contribute to the EDC adaptations (if it's just mileage, that seems somewhat primitive since not all miles/use are equal on damper wear), and (2) given that mine were all feeling the same, I figured it would be a worthwhile experiment before considering swapping out the dampers. In my case, it bought me time since I like the distinct EDC modes and the dampers are not otherwise failing. Davisca455 had different results with his reset, where it made all of his modes feel like sport... so YMMV. |

Brandoch provided a BMW document (https://www.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=21370133) that confirms... "Tolerance Adaptation The damper force is diminished as part of the operating time function. Diminishing damper forces are compensated by current (amperage) reductions which are calculated by the tolerance control. This also individually compensates for mechanical damper wear on each axle." ...as well as reset/clearing adaptations: "Notes on Service Mechanical wear causes the dampers to weaken over the service life, therefore a running time memory adapts the damper curves towards a harder setting (over time). Faulty dampers must be replaced together (in pairs) on a single axle. After a replacement, the running time memory for the front or rear axle must be reset with the BMW diagnostic equipment" FYI we've continue the discussion here: https://www.m3post.com/forums/showth...2006874&page=3 Last edited by Helmsman; 03-02-2024 at 02:20 AM.. |
