f 55 question
I have a person i know with F55 suspenion, on his 50th who says there is little difference in the settings.
I hear that some cars still had the shipping blocks left in for years without them knowing.
Could this be possible on this car?
I am getting an 03 50th tomorrow.

Anything is possible, even after all these years. You should now know just what to look for when you go see the car.

I have an 04, which I recently bought. I found the shipping blocks in the rear shocks only; the fronts had been removed. I have read reports of others who only had them in the rear, also.
With shipping blocks installed, the car felt like the suspension was bottoming out often, even over relatively small bumps.
The differences in switch settings (with shipping blocks removed) are very large, and very noticeable.

I kinda like the F55. 
Gives me options at the flick of a dial and it was an expensive option when new.
