I'm just echoing what E90 xDelete users have said. Theoretically there should be some degree of torque steer anytime the transfer clutch is engaged, even if it's RWD-biased. It's subtle enough on my car that I don't notice it though.
In my experience, torque steer on a powerful fwd car (250 hp and above) can be very noticeable. If it does occur on xdrive cars, it must be so subtle as to be not worth worrying about.

It might be that any small amount of torque steer in the f3* xdrive cars is hidden by the electric power steering column....
I didnt notice much torque steer with my car. when I went stage 1 BM3 on very hard launches especially on uneven pavement or over bumps you feel alittle bit of torque steer but nothing that's not easily controlled or wild
