OVERVIEW
KW V3 Leveling is the current name for KW's Street Comfort platform — a comfort-biased, height-adjustable suspension line built around a KW V3 strut and spring, tuned to raise or lower ride height by up to roughly 0.8 in front and rear rather than delivering an aggressive drop. It levels a factory-loaded stance, improves fitment for aftermarket wheels, and keeps ride quality the priority.
This application is for the all-wheel-drive (xDrive) BMW 4 Series G22 coupe only, in the base (non-EDC) configuration — KW does not offer this kit with an EDC deactivation module for this chassis, and no rear-wheel-drive version of this specific kit is currently published by KW for the G22.
SPECS
- Comfort-biased KW V3 spring and damper pairing with KW pre-set damping
- Continuously height-adjustable, front and rear
- Front adjustment range: 0–0.8 in
- Rear adjustment range: 0–0.8 in
- Threaded strut/shock bodies for ride-height adjustment on both axles
- All-wheel-drive (xDrive/4WD) applications only
- Without EDC — fixed KW valving; not for cars where factory adaptive (EDC) dampers must be retained
PARTS INCLUDED
- Complete KW V3 Leveling (Street Comfort) strut and spring kit as supplied by KW; see the installation instructions for the full bill of materials.
TECH RESOURCES
Additional Parts Required
- Four-wheel alignment after installation is mandatory — KW requires the suspension geometry to be reset to BMW's specification once the final ride height is set.
- Professional installation required — KW states that suspension components must only be fitted by a trained workshop; impact wrenches must not be used on piston-rod fasteners.
- This kit does not include an EDC deactivation module. If your G22 has factory Electronic Damper Control (EDC), confirm compatibility with KW before ordering — no "with EDC" version of this kit is currently published for the G22.
- Driver-assistance systems (radar and camera based) must be re-verified and recalibrated after ride height is changed.
- Check wheel and tire clearance to the strut body after installation; spacers may be required where clearance is marginal.
Installation

- xDrive (4WD) G22 coupe only, without EDC — this is the only KW V3 Leveling / Street Comfort configuration currently confirmed for the G22 4 Series. KW's own fitment data lists this part for the 430i xDrive specifically; fitment for M440i xDrive was not confirmed and is not listed here.
