Anyone get the Soft Sport mode to work on the latest version? I've tried it on stage 2 and 3 but Sport mode shifts are still very aggressive. I actually would like Sport Mode shifts to just be equal to Comfort.

Can you moneyshift? Wondering if there's a chance to blow the trans by accidentally downshifting one gear too many.

Stage 3 shifts with sticky tires would be a concern I think. I am on stage 3 and so far so good, but the shifts are impressive.

Xhp is still my favorite mod. Even running it in comfort stage 2 is a game changer.

Well I am glad it is taking that kind of beating lol... I plan on going Helix OD and straight E85 so this is good news. 700WTQ is amazing what setup are you running?

That's my plan if the trans go out lol... eBay got plenty of them for less than 1k with low mileage.

Hello tuners! I want to know if the "start in second gear" option is available for the 8 speed. My car shifts into first gear way too often in stop and go traffic, and i want to avoid it completely. Can someone confirm this option works on F10 535i 2012 Type FR73. Thanks!!!!!!

it should work, you just have to enable it inside the settings before loading the tune up. i tested on my car and it works perfectly.

What year is your Vehicle that works fine on? Also, what is your method of connecting your vehicle to a tablet/device? Sorry, I am new to this and I am desperate to make my car drive "decent".

Thanks

It work so well... I have my D and S mode set to this. Second gear full throttle on my 535i gets me to 52/53mph... I think it is best for 0 to 60 time specially with launch control for red light race lol.
