I've never had that issue with the sprint booster. I also would throw into neutral if that happened.

Pedals these days are electronic and sprint booster just augments the actuation curve so it shouldn't cause any such issues. I have SB V3 and never had an issue.

Even if it did get stuck at wot just shift into neutral in case of emergency. I've only had that happen with a tradition wire cable gas pedal on my integra :P

So I have had the BMS Pedal Tuner in for a week now and man does it make the throttle feel snappy! Getting up to speed is effortless now and it feels like the boost is instant with minimum pedal movement. I tried all 4 levels.

White = stage 1 is stock setting

Green = stage 2 is slightly better than stock

Amber = stage 3 is my current setting and does wonders for daily driving

Red = stage 4 is purely for throttle junkies.

I tried stage 4 setting with the sensitivity set to high for shits and giggles and I almost rear ended someone so please don't try that in traffic. Feels identical to the sprint booster v3 but without the pedal lock and valet settings. For 179.99 it was a no brainer for me.

What specific brand of SB can you recommend for my 2016 535d please.
Thanks.

Just make sure you get the one for your transmission. There's a difference between manual and automatic. Get their latest version

Hey guys,
Came across this thread randomly and wanted to say thanks for all the questions and concerns. Looks like we just released a new firmware update for the new 2023 models! It's amazing to see BMW use the same pedal design throughout the years...crazy
