"Sport mode" button DCT Request
Hello,
I'm the owner of 2007 e92 335i with Alpina flash. Trying to find the way how to plugin and enable the "sport mode" button from DCT and Driving Dynamics Control (DDC) option on the auto gearbox. Found so far followings: • Presents on e92 with DCT • Presents on e60, e70, etc with adaptive suspension • Works for suspension, active steering and throttle response • There is the DIY for pre-LCI e60 by link. That I've been performed on my previous e60 • There is wiring schema from DCT swap by link From all this info I got that the "sport mode" button is capable of the N54 engine, it affects not only suspension but steering and throttle. Wiring and blocks are not the same with pre-LCI e60. Could someone who had more advanced knowledge of this topic or maybe had e92 DCT and this button, explain how and where this one is connected. With a comparison of my e60, I hope that it would be nice, kind of "original" and low-cost sprint booster modification that could give new emotions to many e92 owners. Thanks Last edited by xom1kadze; 05-26-2020 at 04:16 PM.. |

Real quickly, the sport button for a non M dct has no suspension or steering function. The suspension and steering aren't adjustable as it relates to a E9x. The sport button interacts with the DME and the TCU of the DCT car. Long story short, applying any function of the DCT to a steptronic won't work.

Of course no suspension or steering features. Maybe I'm missing something? |

The same case with pre-LCI e6x. Sport mode available on e63, but not on e60. However, it still worked great after plugging |

Here is full instruction of man from Rusia who performed swap to DCT. https://www.n54tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22016 Everything is pretty clear, but it far beyond my comprehension Therefore it just a question of someone versed in wiring, to take a look and describe by simple words |

The DCT has multiple configurable modes for shift point and speed and it's the same for the 6AT and 8AT that come with the Z4.
In the Z4 you have a D/S mode which is purely a gearbox setting that raises shift points and increases shift speeds then you have the three driving modes, Normal/Sport/Sport+ which influence the suspension damping rate, steering weight, alter the traction and stability control, activate the sport DME maps for throttle and burble etc and further increase the shift point and shift speed of the transmission. |

That was only true of early generation cars (E85 Z4). On the newer ones, the DME look and all the other modules for the sport status on the CAN-bus. Which is sent by the GWS module IIRC.
