These valves are controlled by input from accelerometers, steering wheel position sensors, vehicle speed and sensors showing compression/extension of the suspension (and rate of change of suspension movement, vehicle velocity) and anticipating change by monitoring throttle position and brake position and rate of change of those. <br /> <br /> The performance of the GM/Delphi "MagnaRide" was (is?) incredible - it uses a viscosity controllable oil (magnetorheological fluid) and a small magnetic field at the orifice to dynamically control damping with response time of 5mSec. The device was developed in months but software and sensor integration took a long time to perfect. <br /> <br /> The newer (and more robust) systems like yours use one or more electronically activated valves to change the orifice size instead of changing the fluid's viscosity give a progressive damping effect. <br /> <br /> A simple on/off will result in a stiffer sport ride but may not be matched to the spring compression. You may experience a "hard tail"-like hard bounce if it is "over-damped". The whole goal is to keep tires on the road to maintain/re-establish traction quickly after a perturbation. It is not just about firm or soft.</div> </div> <div class="js-selectToQuoteEnd"> </div> </article> </div> <div class="message-lastEdit"> Last edited: <time class="u-dt" dir="auto" datetime="2024-11-23T07:30:58-0800" data-time="1732375858" data-date-string="Nov 23, 2024" data-time-string="7:30 AM" title="Nov 23, 2024 at 7:30 AM" itemprop="dateModified">Today at 7:30 AM</time> </div> <aside class="message-signature"> <div class="bbWrapper">"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.
