XBimmers | BMW X3 Forum - View Single Post - PSA: Those with a 2020 on older software get a update

sviswan · 03-31-2021, 03:43 PM

Just got the update today and drove the car for an hour. Also switched from the 20 inch winters to the 21 inch summers with PS4S.

The cars suspension feels better, not as jittery or skiddish on uneven pavement. Even going to the 21 inch summers in mid 40's weather the car was composed with the summer tires.

Coming from the e90 M3 with DCT, the ZF8 in the X3M just isn't as fast or visceral as my DCT. I am hoping I can provide feedback after some spirited driving with the updated software. I like the zf8, but it just didn't feel as responsive as I would have expected.

The cruise control auto steer function does feel smoother, but don't have enough time behind the wheel to confirm the improvement.

Thank you for heads up and creating this thread to benefit fellow members!
