BTW I had it in auto Sport mode, don't think I could match those changes myself, not until I've had more time in the car. Didn't want to risk Sport+ either as that turns off traction control!

I think the F30 is also more comfortable in its M Sport guise than the E60, it certainly rides smoother on our crappy British roads.

It sounds like the F30 330d has addressed all those issues. Mix in the higher quality interior, on the money front end looks and it sounds like the perfect car.

Hi Newby here on this site
Just ordered my wife a 330d M Sport in EB11 still got time to change the spec but was wondering if you guys could help as i don't know much about the car but have noticed that some F30's have a LCD display in both the speedo and rev counter, when I asked the dealer why that was he said mine will have that as standard as it has the performance control. Just looking at Adman Mike's great videos his doesn't have them so could someone on here help me out and tell me what they are and what they come with? The car we have ordered is only a low spec as the wife reeled me in when ordering it extra's are privacy glass and Xenons it was either this or a fully loaded 320d M Sport ad i wanted to go back to the 6cyl deisel. |

The BPD comes with loads of other options so you ight already have it but in a nutshell, it turns most of the dash into an LCD type screen so that lots of interesting graphics can be shown and stuff.
It's actually a pretty crapo iomplementation on the 3 series. If you see the true black panel display on the higher models, the entire dash is jet black apart from the silver outlines to the bexels. There's no dials or anything and it looks super sexy Everything is then digital. The 3 series is kinda half way and the area where the mpg counter usually is now becomes the screen to display all the funky ECO Pro stuff. I'll try to find a vid of the "proper" black panel displays

I honestly don't know because I've never seen an F30 without it

Yes that was my understanding - that sport+ allows some slip but does not have TC completely off.
Does anyone know what cable I need to plug my iPhone into the car system? I tried plugging the standard iPhone sync cable into the USB port in the front armrest but the car does not recognise it. I have an iPhone 4 and the HK system. |
