2012 M Performance Power Kit.
Hello folks.
I recently purchased a 2012 CPO 335i. The car was built in 2011 and the M Performance Power Kit is no longer available (At least one cannot order it). Does anyone around these parts know what is going on with this particular kit? I have also read that our automatic was not designed for more than roughly 330 ft-lbs, is that a correct statement? |

Have you asked your dealer? I don't see any problem on http://www.etk.cc/bmw/EN/search/sele...CE/11/11_5180/.
Mine is a MY2012 build in 2011 as well. I got the MPPK last fall without any issues at all.

Tried to order it last week and they could not even get an ETA through their system. They guy called me back the following day trying to offer me a DINAN deal. I am not sure what the deal on the DINAN would be as I have not called them back, but I am curious if they offer me some good deal on the DINAN should I go with that instead. I do not want to loose my CPO Warranty.

How come the dealer cannot get it. They showed me and they had 0 on their system showing availability. They are also giving me like 20% off so it comes to a cheaper price than ECS.

The 0 just means they don't have it in stock in the regional or national warehouse. They can order it from BMW in Germany.

Just get the bms stage 1 for $379 or the jb4 and just cut to the chase. If you go the Mppk route, then your next post will be asking if they installed it correctly because you're not sure you feel and difference.

30 HP is a noticeable difference. I would now, I have tuned cars in the past. And I would rather keep my warranty and not worry about having to remove the BMS or JB4. Also the M-Performance is highly underrated. |

Also OP, not sure if this would work for your car because it was technically produced in 2011, but if you can get the Cobb AP for N55 2011's to work with your car, jump all over that shit. It's like best thing since sliced bread because it can be portuned. |

OP, is your body style the F30?
If so, this will work, I'm an early 2012 build and PPK has been working on my car.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZF_8HP_transmission Many cars however handle well over double their design tolerances. I have yet to hear about anyone blowing their ZF 8A due to excess power below 400 ft lbs. The good news if the transmission does go, it looks like there are any more tangible alternatives that you could throw in for dirt cheap. |
