There's a big difference in power between a non-turbo and turbo. So you're saying you were able to keep up with the non-turbo version

• The base Porsche Panamera comes with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that makes 310 horsepower.
• The Panamera S has a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 that produces 420 horsepower.

It has been bugging me, I may have mistaken a panamera 4 for a panemera S. Maybe it was a Diesel

Maybe he would have wooped your ass

made a DIY

[Roger.SWE]

I added black vinyl under the spoiler and some pieces on the bumper

and white vinyl on my carbon wheels

[pokerface]

Washed the X3 and hit the road to do something new. All is right in the world

[bmwPower99]

Replaced rear disc and pads with Brembos. Used ista to reract the piston however it still needs pushed in with a g-clamp.

Afterwards Auto-Hold stopped working. There was a DSC error code which I cleared and then it started working.

[evilchargerfan]

flashed an mhd ots map. stg2, full e85 map


went into the options:


enabled/disabled the following:
-canbus eca preset
-no anti lag
-stock dp
-no burbles


successful flash, very speedy using the official wifi adapter



no codes, and misc info about build #s and versions, for those who care

[evilchargerfan]

went for a fill up afterwards


$2.59, what a bargain




actual ethanol content = e80





will begin to data log, soon

Let me know how it goes! I've always been curious regarding MHD and their stage 1 tune. Never really looked into price, gear needed, etc...

I am basically looking for a tune that would be better over stock; efficiency wise. Something that would make the engine run at its most optimal while not being a gas hog.

If you have any experience with the stage 1 tune, I'd be happy to hear about it. Curious to see how your car does with the E85 tune as well.

[evilchargerfan]

I ran Stg1 for a year (ish)

Then I ran Stg1 e30 from Feb 2nd to mid May

Mid may until a few days ago, I ran Stg1 full e85

All logs look great. No corrections, Rail Pressure holding up just fine.




Too early to call it on the Stg2 map, will report back later.

I just re read your post Bdavi011

Let me try my best to answer you

Do check their website for pricing, its changed recently.

I did it slowly, I first purchased the License, and a Stg1 Map. Later on, I purchased the Ethanol map pack, and the Monitor License. In hindsight, would have been cheaper to just buy the "super license pack" up front

Gear needed = nothing. Thats the beauty of Stg1

As many others will tell ya, Stg1 anything (mhd, bm3, heck ... jb4) is going to feel nicer than stock.

As far as efficiency goes, I was able to achieve 24 mpg highway, on Stg1.

On the full e85 map, I am now experiencing 18 mpg highway (YMMV).

Per this handy dandy online calculator, it does appear I pay less per mile driven:

(YMMV on this one, big time)

Thanks for the feedback! Ill definitely look into it. Might just purchase it soon. Not to concerned over peak hp/tq since I live in LA and there are very few times I ever need to use the high rpm range.

I'll post any info regarding fuel economy if I decide to do stg1.

TIP:

they do a yearly sale, I forget if it was during black friday or cyber monday, but if you're willing to wait 3 months, its usually 15% less expensive

GL!

35d, Did an oil and filter change and then covered bout 700 miles and averaged 29mpg. Plenty of high speed overtaking mixed with steady 80mph.

[SF07e70]

Attempted to drain and fill atf and ended up changing the whole pan/filter assembly because the plastic drain bolt rounded out. Ended up filling with 4.5qt with transmission at 105f.

[fastxl]

Replaced Front Brake pads and disc.

[pokerface]

Drove the family from Toronto to Mont Tremblant, Quebec and back, averaging about 9L/100km at speed on each 660km trip. X3 holding up well.

[NTD619]

Transfer case bushing/mount. Might do the TPMS delete/FTM activate next!

[DenverSteve]

I just drive it - that's all it needs.

[Cariboospeed]

Bought it. 2011 X3 35i pretty happy with it so far, tomorrow, its gonna see a 700 km workout. Sure appreciate all the info on this forum!

That's because, by your car list, you have a brand new G01 vehicle

Many of us here in this F25 forum have vehicles ranging from 4-10 years old, most out of warranty, so we not only drive them, we actually service them too

[F25_X3 _Tim]

Today I had a wheel off and scrubbed the discs and hubs to see if I can try and cure the return of my annoying brake judder!
