Exactly what is option code FE2, Suspension System Ride, Handling, as opposed to option code F55, which is the Magnetic Selective Ride control.?

None of the references answers my question...I know what the magnetic ride control is (F55), but what the heck is FE2, Suspension system, Ride, handling? What does it do? My car has both. Is it controllable?

I have read all the references given...I was interested to read that many readers said they could not tell if the Magnetic ride control was on..they noticed no difference in ride. I am one of those, however one response I read sort of answered my question. I haven 't found the right road bumps yet to see if what I read is correct.

It references the spring and sway bar setup that goes with the f55 shock.
