So I assume Dynamic drive and Active steering use the same pump. Is this incorrect?

Another Q....see charts for my VIN

No Dynamic

Dynamic
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...72&hg=33&fg=45

So the Question.... on the no dynamic drive diagram the bar appears to be split in two.. is there a linkage box this is plugged into? I'm not sure if car has dynamic drive, dealer couldn't tell me as the VIN did not list it. However it appears that it just may have it because my bar looks like the one with the dynamic setup...has the round thing in the middle. Not sure what its called. Also what is #10 on that chart? it's not listed. Too many electronics in these vehicles.

Isn't dynamic drive hydraulic stabilizers under the car? I know under my car is is pretty obvious that its there... the dealer couldnt tell? Or just by the VIN# it wasnt listed? I would think if its not listed you dont have it.

Here is a comparison of what it looks like with and without: http://www.bmw.com/com/en/newvehicle...amicdrive.html

I do believe they use the same pump: http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E6..._active_steer/

Then I guess i have it....dealer runs the VIN and does show buyer chosen 'options'..... i got the cylinder on my bar. Sigh...i'll have to figure this system out too.

lol look at the rear sway bar, mine is pretty easily visible. Sometimes i notice the rear just getting stiffer in the corner.
