Finaly, hit the 280Km/ph barrier

[Twinz]

* Its not a "test". It happens whenever i start the car. The same with the dtc light you see in the video; gets disabled 50% on start up.

* Josh its 5/7 on the steering wheel to engage.

All E90s can do this 'test' or something similar although all the warning lights are usually on.

:roflol: Almost caught me, then I did a small calculation. 280 mph is around 440 kmh, one for the record books, and when did BMW start marking speed in mph anyway, unless it's an american import. Only then did I spot the errors! GOOD ONE! :biglol:

HUH? You smoking some good stuff?

:rollsmile: There's another reason to live in the Transkei? :rollsmile: Actually, I was taught that to convert miles to kilometers one multiplies by 8 then divides by 5. To reverse the conversion, reverse the numbers. Therefore 280 x 8 = 2240, divide an 5 = 448. Who's smoking what? :ty:

u did a lot of maths there. the speedo is in km, so why did you start doing all the calculations?

:rollsmile:

It feels like starting up a limited edition sports car. Brings out the child-play in me :inlove:

I originally misread the title, saw 280 m/ph, and thought "wait a bit". American spec cars are still marked in miles, so could be, but then I did my little calculation, and "that's not right! " then I looked better at the pics. :blab:

 

[Twinz]

No need to explain man. The guys poking fun at you. I was thinking about the title alot and obviously needed a title to "deceive" you clever bunch. :=):

I saw that immediately.... you had the handbrake up and your gearbox in "P" :roflol:

yep, same here! he he Twinz!!!

The E36's had the dial feature in if you pressed the trip reset button while turning on the ignition.....
