I plan to repair my leaking dynamic drive sways. But have thoughts of completely removing this system. I feel like having solid sways will eliminate one more thing that can go wrong as it currently did.
I plan to remove them, clean them, reapply new sealant to the boots and re-install. Not sure if this will work, but it beats paying $1800 for a new sway bar. For that price tag it has to be less expensive to remove the system.

Got my Bimmer Geeks cable and BMW Standard tools installed. Plus scanned my car with MHD and came up with this.
This fault was fixed with a low-pressure fuel sensor located under the intake manifold.
