  • M850i Cabrio – Sport+ mode / manual flap control / sound

    Hello together, is the flap in the exhaust in the Sport+ mode DUERHAFT open, or does this still adjust to speed etc. and opens only partially? If that were so, so permanently open, then manual flap controls like ASR etc would be completely meaningless. Operating permission goes flute for nothing and they do nothing else than the SPORT+ mode. Does anyone have a m850 (cabrio) and a manual flap control installed? Has the sound improved thereby? If in the Sport+ mode the Kl I have my 850er convertible now since July and I miss my Mustang GT 5.0 more and more. That was a sound, I had to grin every time I drive. In the BMW with 530 hp I always catch myself as I push on Sport+ and switch to something to hear… an absolute shame. As wonderful as the car drives itself and no matter how beautiful the look, without sound the nic ht my (dream) car. Has anyone found a halfway legal way to optimize the sound experience?

  • Panamera Turbo (2017) vs. BMW M850 Gran Coupe

    I’m about to make a decision either for an M850 GC or a Panamera Turbo (2017), both needed, with the M850 being 4 years younger and 30k km less on it. Price is not far apart now, but the Panamera is now older. I have to test both to be able to compare at least the driving feeling, but it’s also about other aspects. It seems to me to buy the M850 GC somehow “reasonable” because it’s actually younger. uch da a direct comparison by experience or general arguments for one of the vehicles? Thank you in advance. [Transferred from engine talk from the topic ‘Purchasing advice: M850 GC vs Panamera Turbo (2017)’.]

  • 6 Series BMW purchase advice

    Servus, I opened a thread here about a week ago about 7 BMW. Unfortunately it didn’t, because the condition of the interior did not agree. Long speech short meaning. I have now stuck on the 6 and would like to fulfill the dream then still before it goes in a few years to go on electric. It should become a 640i convertible (F12). What should I pay attention to? I read in the forum that you should do without xDrive. In addition, I would be interested if the VorFa celift models are worse than Facelift (2015). Are there must-have equipment? Would you like as little electrics as possible, because I just want to enjoy the car and spend less time in the workshop. Maybe a sports exhaust system that comes through the TÜV. As I said, a pure “good weather car” should be and a dream will be fulfilled without paying attention to the loss of value etc.

  • BMW G15 – Drive disrupted & no longer starts

    Hey dear community, On today’s day, I set my car, a BMW G15 850i xDrive, at around 4:00 p.m. When I opened the driver’s door at about 7:00 p.m., an error message appeared immediately with the message “Drive disturbed” on the display. In addition, an image of a BMW X5 in the tacho area was displayed. Subsequently, several other error messages occurred, including: – Retention system disturbed – Driving assistant restricted – Emergency call system failed I put myself in the vehicle and tried to start the engine, but the vehicle did not ignite. The starter also did not work. When trying to read out possible errors via the on-board computer, I was not shown an error message. In order to fix the problem, I first tried to delete the error messages, which however did not succeed. I then disconnected the vehicle battery, some Z I am currently at a loss as the vehicle does not start or display a specific error message in the system. I ask for support or advice on how to solve this problem. I would like to ask you to do this.

  • Oil lid is slightly absorbent. Is that normal? Oil nose at the filling nozzle.

    Hello, how does a defective crankcase ventilation express itself? I noticed a few drops of oil under the vehicle today. Around the oil filler lid are some oil noses, which could explain the drops. When I opened the lid (in idle mode) carefully, it opened very slightly absorbent. Should this light vacuum be like that? The vehicle is a gasoline, 740Li, FL. Valve cover seal and lid was changed about 6 months ago, so it’s not that. Thank you and greeting.

  • BMW M850i Discussion ECO mode, comfort mode, startstop

    Hello together I drive a lot of short distance with my G15 and have configured it so that it starts in Eco Individual mode. I usually switch off the start-stop by hand, because it makes sense to switch on SS at long expected hold times. I wanted to encourage a small discussion about the extent to which it makes sense and what advantages and disadvantages it has to start especially in Eco mode. Since also with Mercedes it is noticeable that as a user the start mode does not I suspect that the Ecomode, apart from the performance, brings with it other disadvantages. I have had the experience of starting the E90 to take it out best because of the steering chain problem with the car. A frequent start leads to the fact that every time the oil pressure for the chain tensioner has to be rebuilt and thus the control chain and guides overly obscured.

  • The 3Plus tours thesis

    Good day, I have a thesis about exits. That should all have about the same performance, the same driving style and so on. Here’s my thesis: With exits with more than three moppeds, what happens much faster than with three or less drivers. I also have two examples. I was with you on 2 tours this year. At the first we were so about 27 moppeds and at the second it was about eleven. At both times someone has been injured. It was a total damage without personal injury and the other time a driver was carried out in the curve. Unfortunately, he did not get so happy. He had broken two vertebrae during the fall or started. He wore hardly any protective clothing, but that should be a separate topic. What do you have for experiences with larger groups? I think that three riders is the limit because the group does not pull and catch up (if there is a flame) not so bad. In addition, the differences between three are not as different as when traveling with more. What do you think about it?

  • I went under the bikers now… but use another oven

    Hey guys! I passed my motorcycle test this morning. (Luckily otherwise the 270 ? forn A**** would have been … they don’t have mercy on the fees) Anyway, I need a rideable kit now. I’d like to have a Chopper/Cruiser, maybe a Naked Bike. I’ve seen a Honda CM 250 C here at a dealer in the area for 1,100 EUR. I’m aware that the ones I drove to the Kawasaki ER-5 in the driving school didn’t come from the passageway. But I just want something cheap to drive and especially fast you also have to be ned absolutely, as long as she sleeps at the speed up to 100 nd. Otherwise I have seen the Kawasaki Z 440 on the used market on the internet again and again, without having seen them now real. Therefore I wanted to ask if who has already had experiences with one of the two machines and can tell me something about it, or someone can give me any hint about a machine nte. MfG, Stefan

  • A18 passed and now?

    Hi, I’m a new driver and happy to finally hold my own rag in my hand. Now, of course, I play with the thought of getting a used motorcycle. Why used: I think it happens at the beginning that you have a little slipper or easily get off the road. You never know. So, since my driving instructor has praised me very much and I thought a natural talent has discovered the love of cycling. Since now the season unfortunately soon This year it will be nothing more, but n few infos would not be bad. So: I would like to get n motorcycle for 2000-3000 €. Preferably a athlete like the Kawa ZX 6R So in the 600 capacity range and with enough power behind it, 2 years driving is not wild anymore if it can go after it. Is the machine suitable for me? Or is it also not so expensive in maintenance? Now I come to the 2nd point. I need complete equipment (clothing) for 800€ but without boots (I already have them) Is this possible if you place value on high safety standards as well as comfort? And what is cheaper, leather combi or yet textile? And with the helmet is very important to me, it must be safe, good fit and low noise. Is there a good brand, or good models to be recommended? So, then I hope that I did not scare you all off with dme long text and here will come some answers Mfg: Daniel
