Active Damper System Adjustments?

07 MDX Sport. Can the ADS be adjusted? For me I feel something in between Sport and Comfort would be just about right. Sport is too stiff and Comfort is too bouncy. Can it be adjusted? Thanks.

You can always replace the shocks with non adjustable kind.
But dont think you can adjusted the Acura product.
Remember its Dynamic and self adjusts no matter what mode its in.
On my '11 MDX Advance ... I can't really tell what the difference is with the two modes and leave it in Comfort.

One thing that is critical with the ADS is tire pressure. Make sure you're at 32-34# cold all around. More air and you'll be chipping teeth even in the comfort setting. EL_PIC is right on - it's going to adjust no matter what. Comfort seems to give you a little more travel and less stiffness but it can't make up for rock hard, or mushy, tires.

There is no adjustment. Replacing them with base struts will throw codes all over the place. Not a good idea.
