    Does anyone know if the S-Line Sports suspension actually utilises different components from the standard?

    i have chosen to go with the standard but was wondering if once I get the car if I don't think it is stiff enough can the dealer retro fit?

    It's subjective of course, but I wouldn't want mine any stiffer. I'll just leave that there.

    I'm guessing different dampers and springs.

    You should've ordered the air suspension?

    Thing is, it's a no cost upgrade which makes me think its the same suspension adjusted.

    There are about 5 options I would get before the air suspension.

    hud, Quattro sports diff, sun roof, led lights, dynamic steering. If I had a spare £10k then maybe I would have got the air suspension to.

    I understood it to be a different spring with, probably, a revised spring rate. It would effect geometry too so that would need to be adjusted to compensate.

    If I find time, I'll find out if it can be retrofitted as I'd like it on my car.

    Different springs and dampers, I think.

    I have air suspension, its great as i get the best of both worlds. However, when i put it in dynamic suspension mode, i often think it should be firmer than it is. Comfort is about right, wouldn't want it any softer, but when i have the comfort option, the dynamic could be harder than in a normal SLIne as you dont have to live with it all the time.
