Active Roll Stabilization on a 528?
I just got a 2010 528i with sports package. Can someone confirm that it has ARS? According to the 2010 brochure, it should be included. However, I don't see it mentioned anywhere on the options list on the original sticker.
I also requested the detailed options list for my VIN and I don't see it. (See below)
Thanks

go take some corners real fast and see how straight she stays. lol
it really is an awesome system, where the car stays flat in the corners.
i'm not sure about the option code, but you could maybe look under the rear, to see if you have the special swaybar. the front is covered by the splash shield.
