What happens if I don't use a cancellation kit when upgrading my BMW's suspension?

If you replace your factory electronic dampers without using a cancellation kit, your BMW's computer will detect the missing components. This typically results in a persistent "suspension service required" warning light on your dashboard and can sometimes affect other vehicle systems.

Does this kit disable all electronic suspension features?

No, this kit is designed to prevent error messages by cancelling the factory electronic damping signal. It allows you to retain the functionality of your in-cabin drive modes, such as Comfort, Sport, or Sport+, so you can still select your preferred driving feel.

What is included with the KW Electronic Damping Cancellation Kit?

The KW ESC Cancellation Kit (part number 68510213) includes the necessary modules to cancel the electronic suspension control signals. It is designed for a plug-and-play installation to integrate with your vehicle's wiring harness.

Product Details

If you're upgrading the suspension on your BMW 5 Series, 6 Series, or 7 Series and want to keep your factory electronic damping system functional or simply avoid persistent error messages, this KW Electronic Damping Cancellation Kit is what you need. When you swap out the factory adaptive dampers for aftermarket coilovers or struts, the car's computer often throws a fit, triggering a "suspension service required" warning light. This kit is designed to prevent that.

KW has developed these ESC modules to effectively shut down the factory damper regulation without causing trouble codes. The system essentially tells the car that the electronic dampers are still in place and functioning correctly, even though they've been replaced. This means you can enjoy the benefits of your new suspension setup without the dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree. The functionality of your car's control unit remains completely intact, so you don't lose any other vehicle features.

This kit is made in Germany and is designed to integrate seamlessly with your vehicle's existing electronics. It's a crucial component for a clean and professional suspension upgrade on many BMW models from around 2009 to 2018, including popular cars like the F10 5 Series, F12/F13 6 Series, and F01 7 Series. It ensures that your in-cabin drive mode selections continue to work as intended after the swap.
