I already spoke to my parts person at my dealership to start sorting out part #'s with germany so I can purchase in Q1 '13. With a 6 year/100k warranty, I'll be keeping it under warranty for as long as possible given all the little hiccups I've experienced in owning this car for 5k miles

SO just got an email from my SA, the parts department says PPK is ONLY available for M Sport lines, and they are still "working out kinks" with the kit, here's what they wrote:"Performance Power Kit that I see says 335i models with M Sports Package. When reviewing options I don't see M sports Package on such said vehicle options." (ie My no-line car).
Sigh...

My new 335i xDrive will be delivered next Friday (in exchange with my 550i xDrive) and the PPK is on the target list for my 335. |

So just got off the phone again, I guess BMW Germany is sending bulletins to BMWNA updating on the status of it, and availability.
What they are saying is that it requires a "new ecu" which already comes with the M Sport line, and I believe, once it's all sorted out, it'll be available for all lines...so we sit and we wait.

Maybe it's some conspiracy that the MY2013 cars with the new ECU have less power and they want the 2012s to get the new ECU so the ppk actually increases power! /end crazy conspiracy talk |

I think it will be part of the ppk and no additional cost (at least that was my impression from the first release).

http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=750360 I am pretty certain the new ECU for pre-11/12 vehicles is not an additional purchase on top of the PPK as the installation instructions (someone posted a week or two ago) include the ECU on the "Parts list for retrofit kit." See attached PDF, page 4. |

What wasn't clear was that it was associated with a line of the car, not the necessarily the MY.

I also see that there is no price listed in the new update, while there was a price in October or whenever. Additionally, it says something about Msport in the new info but the old one doesn't make mention any limitation. The information seems to just be confusing and or contradictory, not to mention the date keeps moving back. Wasn't it November? Then January? Now is it March? Most of the new information posted seems to be geared toward new cars not delivered, maybe that is accounting for some of the difference? Lots of questions, I'd just like to know some specifics instead of the ambiguity for those of us who already have our cars. |

Can't imagine why it would be M sport only. Is it possible its just because the M sport aero allows for better cooling? I don't think the M sport has an upgraded oil cooler does it?
