Most say the power is noticeable but to be honest I didn't notice a huge difference. The few dyno's we have don't lie and they say about 35 HP, 40 torque increase and time slips show two tenths of a second faster 0-60 times. I consider adding MPPSK the best thing I've ever done to a car.

I had the same problem with exhaust valves staying open
I have a 2017 340i with the MPPSK installed. I am assuming that you have the MPPSK installed as well, if not, then all bets are off!
I experienced the very thing you are describing in your original post. Here are the circumstances around my experience. What you are seeing is not normal for the car (once again, assuming MPPSK). On my car, the normal operation for the exhaust valves is they remain closed during the first couple of minutes after a cold start and when I am operating the car in Comfort or Eco-Pro mode (HA, I never use Eco mode!). Anyway once the car is "warm" if the mode is Sport or Sport+ the exhaust valves are open. During my 20,000 mile service the dealer updated the "firmware" in the car and when I picked the car up I had the symptoms you described. When I would start the car, the valves would be closed, but after it was warm (60 seconds or so) the exhaust valves would open no matter what driving mode I selected. They were always open as you describe if I am understanding you correctly. The Shop Forman knew of a bulletin for this behavior, but the recommended procedures in the bulletin did not correct the problem. They immediately opened a PUMA case and got Germany involved. It took them a couple of days, but the engineers in Germany accessed the car remotely and found the problem. They wound up writing new code for my car to get things operating normally. So, what you are seeing is not normal, and like you, while many people would love to have the valves open all the time, that is not the way it is supposed to work. And like you, I wanted it fixed! And it can be fixed. Hope this helps. |

I thought of pulling fuses 146 and 147 in the boot when the flap is open so it would then stay open permanently ... but this would also disable Parking Assistant, so I have stuck with Carly so far. If, like me, you use an Android device to connect to the Carly Adapter and want to ensure no connectivity issues (particularly with Android 9 Pie), go to Settings >> System >> Advanced >> Developer options >> Bluetooth AVRCP version >> change from 1.4 to 1.6. If you cannot see Developer options, Google how to open this feature for your device. __________________________________________________ ___________
