The LSD will definitely NOT interfere with any of the BMW nannies. I wish I found this thread before they all backordered. REALoem shows its compatibility with xdrive cars.
The maximum slip is not enough to trigger xdrive or DSC/ediffs.

Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered one and said it would be here this week. I guess Saturday is going to be another car day.

I will say on mk5/mk6 volkswagens, people used to swap transmissions and change the final drive ratios on manual cars to get stronger/longer gearing for big turbo setups. It bolted up fine, MPG improved, but it did mess with some things. Cruise control being completely disabled due to mismatching engine/wheel speeds was one of the more noticeable ones. No one could figure out how to code it. You also lose torque/passing power on the highway since it effectively lengthens your 6th gear.
For a track car I'd jump on it because I'm sure it'll bolt up and function without a problem, but for a daily driver I won't risk it. I enjoy rowing through the gears but I like my cruise control and other things too |

I don't think this was ever mentioned on the post but for the folks who are not as knowledgeable as others, can someone explain in detail what this LSD is and more importantly, how would the driver feel the gain through this mod? Is it really worth it? I drive a 2014 RWD 335i so assuming this will fit my car.

As the 3.23 Manuals are still used in the F32 series, add 2 years for that to end and then 3 years after that, for a total of 5+ years. It's also a fair assumption that these did NOT sale as expected, thus the $1000 discount 18 Months ago on Black Friday and the Inventory reduction now. With that in mind, you have no idea that there is an excess of inventory of the 3.23 for manual transmissions as 1) So few manuals are sold why would they make that many and 2) They might have seen sales for last several years and not ordered as many upfront. I guess you'll find out in the 2024-2025 timeframe. FWIW, all BMW stock in the USA is now sold out on the 3.15 and the remaining stock is in Germany as of this post. |

ECS (wasn’t the cheapest of the sales) but mine shipped today expected delivery is Wednesday. Still on the fence about doing it myself. Local shop quoted me $300-350 for the install. Might take them up on it.
Would be all in for under $1k. Amazing deal.

For those of us with a 340i 6MT, there's a guy on eBay selling one brand new for $1700+$150 shipping (#33108659988). I asked the seller if BMW would honor the warranty if they installed it and he said no. If someone wants to pick one up without the warranty, then it's still available. You can search eBay.com for the part #33108659988 and you'll see it. I know...it's 3x the 335i sale price, but relatively speaking it's the cheapest new one I've seen on the open market.

I seen this on Monday morning from my email, thought it was a misprint, I called and it was correctly listed for $560! So I bought it on the spot from Bimmerworld. Said it was back ordered and will be here first of June. Going to have local dealer install. I'm geeked about this deal, I would have never guessed I could get an LSD and have it installed for under a grand! Question is what else is needed for installation? Oil, any gasket, c-clip, or?? Is there any break in required?
Finally, my RWD 335i will have the missing piece!
