Can any one with 2005 545i with sport package confirm whether our car comes with ARS? I want to install the H&R sway bars but was told they cannot be used with car that equipped with ARS.

Thank you.

I have an 05 545i with sport package and yes it includes dynamic suspension/active roll. I can see no reason why you would want to tamper with this suspension as it is vastly superior to any aftermarket stuff you will tack on.

+1. I have the active suspension on my 545 and today drove a new 535 w/o it, and I can say it is amazing how much more buttoned down my car is. Truly amazing. There is so little body roll, and yet such a great ride. The best of both worlds.
