    Then again you would want electronic dampening, most new cars have them now, is such a nice feature.

      It is indeed a nice feature, like a lot of things on cars nowadays. Well, until they go wrong

        I don’t agree on that to be honest, you don’t need a feature because it is on most new cars now. And also, if you (like me) never ever use it, then you would not need it.

        I drive on 40 mm springs (yes I now 30mm is the max, but I have 40) and when I hit sport mode I need to go to the nearest Dentist because the feauture is based on stock springs, In other words: if you lowered the car then the electronic demping is less comfortable then a KW suspension which has the springs and shocks balanced again.

        And the last thing: Vauxhall removed the difference between normal and tour with last ECU update, I noticed it and contacted the stealers and comfirmed. Why? I do not know? It is useless to me.

        It is just my opinion guys....

            I replaced all 4 a year ago because I could not live without. With 20" flexride its needed full time. On tour on motorways its a dream, on sport on country roads its cracking. In normal mode on the 20s it can be a bit harsh so I normally use tour. You have to remember the flexride is working in any mode and to drive an Insignia without it after 4 years - it feels like its broken.

                    Did the kit work in terms of errors?

                        The kit works great. The cancellation kit which is included works good, no errors on the display. I can even go lower then this of I want, it’s really nice.
