I would be really interested to know the answer to this one. My 2012 M6 has just had firstly an update comprising new wishbones, control arms, tension struts(?) and rubber bushes which absolutely transformed the car, and then Carbon Ceramic brakes, further improving the steering. On Wednesday the KW HAS goes on along with the 10mm spacers.... so breath holding time. I too wonder if the CP sway bars would give any further improvement. Any comments? Cheers Brian

I can't speak for the CP sways but I would imagine they at very similar to the DINAN sways which I put on my car. I could definitely feel the difference as the whole car feels stiffer now. I don't think you can go wrong upgrading the non-CP sways to the CP sways especially for the price. It's a low cost mod and worth the money.

I am sorry I don't have the part numbers. I will try and get them. The work was done by my German dealer when I asked if there were any upgrades for the early cars, consequently there was no paperwork. There was an upgrade in March 2013 or thereabouts and then of course the competition package came out later. I imagine the upgrade was made up from parts from one of those two changes. It made a huge difference to the steering and general smooth running of the car. Cheers Brian |

Thanks all, I find that my2012 model seems a little handful on the track, maybe the upgrades will make a difference . Out of curiosity , where are you located in the uk ?.

i had the dinan installed in my m5 f10 and took them off in a weeks time, however im starting to think by the general concensus that it was a wrong install. im wondering i had ac schintzer springs on before i added the dinan sway bars, it was lower than stock, maybe that had something to do with it? are you able to add dinan sway bars with non stock suspension?
