As a new 340i owner, I would be interested in knowing this as well. Would be awesome if it's true.

Mine is feeling pretty fast, I bet it is going to feel faster next couple weeks when i add the Dinantronics and BMS intake lol... But on a real note, It has been feeling a little faster ever since I got it a couple months ago, I'm beginning to lose traction, which i couldn't do before.

No not really. But then I haven't driven your car so it's really hard to tell from the forum. . .

I'm sure everyone's feelings here are simply just that. Over analyzing is easy to do .

I'm sure once you get into high mileage there may be a perceivable difference as things wear. Even then you'd probably have to be a good driver to notice though.

I have 10k miles on mine. It felt much faster before my dealer updated the software to v58.3. But from that point even, it feels relatively slower than it did before. I'm going in for my first service tomorrow. Maybe after some new oil, it will feel quicker.

the techs all say the same thing. take it out on s spirited ride for 10 minutes and Voila. Problem solved. Adaptations will reset automatically. I think there is a way to do it manually though sitting in your garage. (At least i've done it for my Z4)

I tried resetting mine a while back and it didnt seem to do anything. Is there a way to confirm that it has been reset?

I tried the following based on a member's suggestions:
* Press the start button once to turn on power (Don't start the engine)
* Press the accelerator down to the floor for at least 5 sec.
* Hit start button once to turn off power
* Remove foot from accelerator
* Wait for min. 2 minutes
* Start the engine and drive

Got my oil changed and I'm pretty sure the techs already did that for me. They put almost 10 miles on the car and my trip computer mpg went from 30 to 16 (had driven 10 miles all highway that morning to get to the dealer). Not sure why they had to drive it for a 10k service . As usual, they turned off my dash cam beforehand (second time they did this out of the two time's i've been there and drove my car).

Anyway, it drives the same. I'll reset the adaptation again and see how it goes.
