I notice the Bluefin remap on the 335d gives an extra 69bhp pushing the overall to 355bhp making it quite a powerful beast. Does it cope with this power increase ok? Any other issues?

Power is not really the issue torque is but yes it will be fine. look around Bluefin is too expensive. Plenty more flash tools out there at a better cost and better performance. + 69 but look at their graph car only made 339bhp that is not +69bhp

You could try the excellent JBD. I have had one for 6 months running at 100%, no codes no issues, much faster than stock.....still getting 500miles on a tank.

Very good value, and you can sell it after you are done with it....just my 2p

While we have 335 owners' attention... Is anyone NOT doing mega miles in theirs? I have considered a used one but all the ones on sale seem to have big mileage for the age. I know the car can 'take it' as such (see my recent thread about our 230k golf) but for reasons of condition and previous cars owned, I want to treat myself to sensible mileage.

Oh sorry for the hijack wink. 335d rocketship m3 Ferrari dxb etc. there you go back on topic.

Just pinging this back to the top with a couple of q's if anyone can help?

MPG
I'm getting c35mpg on my 09 plate 335d in the life of the car. This includes a couple of very spirited b road drives per week but mainly the car is doing the motorway slog to work. What should i expect from an emap, Bluefin type remap? Some people say mpg improves, some say other.....?

DIAGNOSTICS
Some remappers are offering maps which hide themselves to BMW diagnostics. Is this true?

Tx...

Like for like driving will usually see an increase in MPGs if measured tank to tank, but the economter bit can over read, especially so with a plug in box.


Hiding remaps is all well and good, but all they need to do is drive it and they'll notice it straight away.

Hi there, I got my 2006 535d remapped by dms and it transformed the car. Would highly recommend them. I sold the car with 160k to friend last nov and he has not had any trouble.
