KW ESC Electronic Shock Control Module - BMW X5 F15 / X3 M F97 / X4 M F98 (2014-2023)
You know exactly when to use Comfort mode and when to switch to Sport on these X-chassis BMWs. The EDC adaptive dampers are part of how this car changes character, and you rely on that, not just in theory but every drive.
The KW ESC module is not a cancellation kit. A cancellation kit silences the fault codes but leaves your EDC modes nonfunctional. The KW ESC module intercepts the EDC adaptive damper signals from your BMW's control system and translates them directly into adjustment commands on the KW coilover dampers. Switch to Sport in iDrive and the KW coilovers firm up. Switch to Comfort and they settle. You get proper KW stance and quality, with every factory EDC mode fully working.
