launch control question

I have a 2014 535i without DDC. I think this is why there is no sport + mode. Does this mean there is no Launch control in this vehicle? If there is LC, ne1 know how to activate this feature?

Mahaloz!

You need SAT to get launch control. I am unsure if Sport + is also a part of this as mine has DDC and SAT.

Can you please define SAT and DDC and how they relate to launch control?

Just stand on the brake pedal while hitting the gas. Car will rev to about 3k rpm, then release brake.

SAT is sport auto transmission
DDC is dynamic damper control
