    Help! Disabling F55 Ride Controller

    So, consider the fact that at the best discount a set of four F-55 shocks will set you back about $1200, and you can get a brand new set of C6 Z06 shocks for under $300, or lifetime warranty Bilsteins for about the same price, replacing the F55 shocks just doesn't make any sense.

    Help! Disabling F55 Ride Controller

    I was exaggerating with 1k per corner, they are actually something like $850 per corner. There are no aftermarket replacements, and the shocks tend to get leaky right about the time the warranty expires and they are not rebuildable. Add to that the fact that at the stiffest setting, the...

They were the only shop in the state that said that not only did they know what to do, but they had experience in this very job. They ended up removing the ESC, downloading...

    Help! Disabling F55 Ride Controller

    The plugs don't seem to do the trick. With the plugs in, it will go into a "codeless limp mode" where it gives me "Max Speed 80mph" without throwing any DTC codes. This usually happens under brisk acceleration or a sharp turn. I'm thinking some sensor that is expecting input from the F55...

    Help! Disabling F55 Ride Controller

    Can anyone tell me how to disable the F55 ride controller? Removing the RPO from the BCM and unplugging the leftmost connector on the ESC removes the 'Service Ride Control' message, but makes the car go instantly into limp mode 'maximum speed: 80mph' without throwing any DTC's. I need to get...
