E92 335 coupe DCT advice

Stunning - congrats...

Are my eyes deceiving me, or is that a business iDrive screen?

I thought all local E92 335i's came with Pro Nav as per standard? :thinking:

Thanks, yup business

First time I've seen that on a local E92 335i. Colour me shocked.

I trust you at least managed to get a discount out of ACS?

I got the best deal, threw in two new pirellis and a handshake

Thanks guys, what a car, totally worth it. Got a quote from Sherwin at Xcede for a DP, hoping to fit it during October

Congrats!

Congrats on the car its beautiful.


Things to check:

Make sure all re-calls on the car have been done.

Most e9X cars have water pump issues around 100k

The only other thing that you should look out for are the rims.

A lot of guys complained about the 19’s buckling easily and in some cases cracking.

The combination of the stiff suspension and run flats take a toll on the rims

Thanks bro, I checked with Clubmotors Randburg and there's no re-calls outstanding, I checked the history and there was nothing major replaced except for the radiator including module carrier and electrical coolant pump

Its great that they replaced the water pump already, it means you have the newer version pump which will last alot longer.

Guys, how much does JB4 cost and what's the difference between JB4 vs installing software?

Off the top of my head I think JB4 is about 8k, JB4 has pre-programmed maps for the engine, a whole bunch of diagnostics tools and other cool features.

Many tuners, will do a back end flash, install a JB4 and then do their own custom map on map 6.

JB4 allows on the fly map switching which is awesome, for example, your "race map" might be designed for Octane booster or Ethanol, in order to maximize performance. If you're doing a road trip you most probably wont have access to ethanol for the entire trip, at which point you can switch to map 5, which is an autotuner map and gives you boost and timing advances based on the conditions, and fuel at that point in time.

Software is simply a single map that is programmed onto the cars DME, no multi-map, no diagnostic features. just a once off. if you change your hardware (downpipes, cooler, intake etc) and want to maximize the performance gain, you'll have to do software again. If you're mapped to run 40% ethanol, you better make sure you ALWAYS have 40% ethanol mix fuel at your disposal or at best your car will be pulling timing like crazy, at worst you'll be damaging your engine (engine knock).

Long story short, you want the JB4 (first step), a back end flash and custom tune for map 6 (if you plan on racing). Just getting the JB4 already gives you access to multiple maps, with more power and other cool features. You can do the backend flash at later stage as well as a custom map 6 at any point in time.

I would be very careful with Motorite. Promise the world but that's about it.

Love the car though.
