You can also look directly at the shocks. They all look the same, except for the yellow label on them. The color of the stripe on the outer edge of the yellow sticker tells all. Light green is Luxury (FE1), Bright blue is FE3 (sport). The V's have pinkish purple (FE4), and the V sport shocks (FG2) have pinkish purple with a black dashed line. I don't know what the non-load leveling sport shock (FE2) stripe color is.



Top is FE4, bottom is FE3 (look close at the yellow sticker edge).

Re: Sport Suspension? how do i know?

My front shocks have a green band on the sticker but my code on my spare tire cover says FE3, so what ones do I have than? I was told it has the sport but does it really?

Re: Sport Suspension? how do i know?

I think FE2 and FE3 are the same except for the load levelling.
I was looking for a sport. found one I liked too. I just couldnt come to terms with the spoiler and 18" wheels though.
