Hi all,

I jumped on board the N54 train 3 months ago, getting myself a 2007 335i AT M-Sport, it's been fantastic and certainly puts a smile on my face!

However I had one criticism of the car which was a slight delay when applying throttle. I'd put my foot down and there would seem to be 1/2 second delay before the engine responded, not massive I know but definitely noticeable.

I had my car in at BMW to sort out the hydro pump this week and at the same time they've given it the latest updates, it feels completely different now, incredibly responsive and the power is there instantly when I need it!

So for anyone else feeling that hesitation it's well worth a punt taking it to your local BMW garage and asking for the latest updates.

Next stop JB4 + DCI...

Potentially, I read that the delay/hesitation from the 'learning' is due to the gearbox starting to go, the gearbox in mine is a year old so wouldn't have thought there would be an issue there!

Enjoy. The JB4 is superb. Make sure you get the USB cable and route it in to your glovebox so you can cock about with the JB4 phone app etc.
I am very excited about it, I've resisted fast cars and modifications for a long time now so my inner teenager is rather happy!

Did you import yours from America?
