XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — BMW 2 SERIES F45/F46 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2014-2026

The F45 and F46 are the BMW oddities – front-wheel-drive (or xDrive) MPVs riding on the UKL2 platform shared with the MINI Countryman, with a tall body, a high centre of gravity, and the factory’s Dynamic Damper Control system trying to paper over the physics. Strip the electronic dampers out and the chassis suddenly needs a coilover that can cope with stage surfaces while keeping a 1.5-tonne MPV planted under load.

The XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally coilover for the 2 Series F45/F46 is the sealed-stage answer. Built around the cancellation kit that removes the OE electronic damping circuit, this is the spec for owners running an Active Tourer or Gran Tourer on closed-road tarmac events – where ride compliance over broken surfaces matters more than circuit-flat body control.

What this coilover does for your 2014-2026 Bmw 2 Series F45/f46 (cancellation Kit For Electronic Damping)

Tarmac rally damping is a different brief from circuit work. The valving here is set to soak up the mid-corner ridges, expansion joints and patched repairs that define a UK closed-road stage, without letting the F45/F46’s tall body pitch or roll into trouble. Tyre contact stays consistent over surfaces that would unload a stiffer track damper, and that translates directly into traction on power and confidence under braking. The cancellation kit removes the factory electronic damper signal cleanly, so the car’s dash stays quiet and the new dampers run on their own valving rather than fighting the OE control unit. Ride height adjustment lets you set the car for the stage at hand – fast-road compliance one weekend, lower stance for tighter events the next.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally is engineered specifically to absorb the impact of uneven pavement and the larger compressions that come with rally surfaces. The damping is tuned to suppress body shock when the car crosses bigger bumps, keeping the chassis settled rather than skipping across the surface. That body control feeds straight into tyre traction – the contact patch stays loaded instead of going light over crests and dips. The valving settings come directly from XYZ Racing’s tarmac rally programme, so this isn’t a circuit damper with a softer spring rate bolted on; it’s a different baseline tune. The result is a coilover that delivers genuine stage-pace handling on the sort of surfaces that punish track-spec kit. Build quality and adjustability follow the wider XYZ Racing coilover range, with ride-height and damper settings that let you tune the car to the event.

Fitment for the Bmw 2 Series F45/f46 (cancellation Kit For Electronic Damping) (2014-2026)

This kit fits the F45 Active Tourer and F46 Gran Tourer (chassis code BM119-C) from 2014 through to 2026. The cancellation kit element is the important detail – it is specified for cars originally equipped with Dynamic Damper Control / electronic damping, replacing that system entirely with passive coilovers and the harness work needed to keep the car’s electronics happy.
