Oem edc shocks to non edc car

Hey,

Im fitting complete m3 suspension with subframe etc to my 335i, and even when the seller told me that the shocks are from non edc, i found out that the rears are on m14 thread wich points for edc, m12 for non edc's i think.

Well after making modified mounts to fit them, im just wondering that in wich state shocks are when they are not connected? Like on full sport or comfort?

Thanks already for the help.

They are in comfort when not connected or disabled from EDC

I thought when EDC had a fault it would default to the firmest setting? In the case of the OP his/her wouldn't this apply versus being at soft?

It's the opposite. EDC shocks are set at the softest setting when not connected to the EDC module or when there's an error.

According to this bmw aftersales training document it says this:

The driver can choose between three settings,
the controlled programs "Comfort" and
"Normal", or the uncontrolled fixed setting
"Sport".
