I have a stock 02 coupe and have the ride button just aft of the gear shift. (6speed) how do I know if I have that option? I bought the car used 5 yrs ago and even though the DIC shows that I'm switching modes, I don't feel the difference.

FE1 Base Suspension

FE3 Sport Suspension (Included With Z51)

F45 Selective Real Time Damping, Electronic (Not Avail w/Z06)

When you open your glove box there is a small white sheet with a bunch of RPO codes on it... one of the above codes is what your suspension is.

You have an AH/TC button to turn off the Active Handling or if you hold that button down for 5 seconds you will get Competitive mode.

If you would like to know what the rest of the codes are write them down or take a pic of them with your phone and compare to this list
