So on a more performance oriented note, I have a question regarding my Cobb Tune...
I'm running the Stage 1 Aggressive /ST Map and I'm noticing a bit of a flat spot at around 3800RPM... Now I understand that an OTS Map will never be perfect and I was ready to put it down to needing a ProTune but the other day I noticed something interesting: When I change the traction control mode to MDM the flat spot goes away...BUT I'm not getting any traction control lights in standard mode... Thoughts? |

In regards to flat spot, haven't noticed it with my stage 1 aggressive FMIC+ map but I get more of a jerky hesitation power output when I WOT. I'm not bother about it yet as I haven't yet done a track day to see how bad it is.

Sorry... Wasn't really clear... Scenario 1: All traction control aids on. ///M button on. 3rd gear pull. No traction control light coming on. Flat spot at about 3800RPM. Scenario 2: MDM Mode active. ///M button on. 3rd gear pull. No traction control light coming on. NO flat spot at about 3800RPM. My point was that I initially thought that in full "nanny mode" it was a lack of traction that was causing the flatspot in the power but its not triggering the TC light on the dash. And yet it doesn't happen when I am in MDM mode... (the flatspot, that is. I'm not expecting TC light in MDM mode unless I'm about to kill myself...) |

M button still works fine with the Stock Throttle Map for me... That's why I'm not using the LT map... I know I need to do some logging and take a look at the curves... It's just hard to do in this Police State called Queensland... |

This is what you get for owning 1M's. But I don't use the ST map anyway because no ///M button |

Will be very interested to see what new rubber does for you mate. Might be the nudge I need to shell out for some SuperSports...

Other thing that comes to my mind is your clutch could be starting to slip. Don't forget the clutch is not rated for STOCK HP level. The trans too. lol But BMW just took a calculated risk - with warranty claims. So far so good. But time will tell. Also there were some 1M's which had bad rear crankshaft seal. They leak oil(or somethings just make a fluttering type noise on decell). Just FYI.

Yeah... I'm thinking that maybe it's pulling the timing or something. Only way to know is Logs. Just got no time at the moment... |

So, big thanks to Quang for pointing me in the right direction. Couple of weeks ago I managed to pick up one of the last of these limited edition Stencil Prints originally commissioned for 1Addicts Members...
Managed to get it on sale.. There's still a few left if anyone's interested. Only VO and AW available now... Can't insert a link because for some reason the site is blocked on here but do a search for Manual Designs if you want one... Found the perfect frame for it too... |
