K&N might have been worth it in the 80s but totally pointless now.

TBH if you're seeing any smoke I'd be taking it back and asking them to turn it down a bit.
If soot is getting past the DPF when you floor it then there's too much of the stuff all the time, but that is being caught. You're going to shorten the life of the DPF or at the very least be doing an awful lot of regens to clear it.
If they've done it right there should be no smoke as they have set the fuel / air ratio correctly and just optimised everything, smoke indicates they've just turned up the fuel too far.....

Seems most smoke when modified.

Agree, .. there's no visible smoke from my 325bhp 330d, and it registered 0.00 on the MOT emissions test.

When its a hot day like 20 degres c and upwards and i give the car some pain, the big turbo will stop working, however when its below 15 degrees i can give it pain for 45 minutes with no issue at all???
No codes at all
Runs perfect, just big turbo stops working if you give it some hammer in the warm, obvious thing to say is dont give it hammer when its hot but we all do on a nice sunny day dont we.
I have changed fuel filter, put a k an n air filter on recently too and hasnt made a difference

If it is linked to the map, get it sorted. the car with two turbos is designed to have then both working.

No smoke on mine with an aggressive map. I remember when I was watching them set it up on the RR, checking to see if there was any smoke.
However the exhaust tips do blacken over time and need to be cleaned, so what ever there is is not visible.

Just an update to my power loss, seems to do it more in sport mode on a hot day, im getting these codes, used a different diagnostic,
Codes are
481b2b
244a00
258400
Havent a clue 🙈 anyone come across this issue, its usually if i hit more than 120 it does it too, we all do it even though its naughty 🙈

[Bmw435dchester]

E114be fault code, I keep getting the code up and it just says manufacturing code?
Car is 393bhp so its quick! But this is coming up more often now but car drives perfectly fine? I'm a little car ott and I keep my cars in tip top shape, I'm curious what this code means?

[Ajs_435d]

Use ista and get a proper code.

Prob related to pressure or temperature as the car has been pushed too hard it'll flag up a warning.

I get little of smoke when initially booted it.

Sounds like a shit map or an underlying problem. I have a DMS remap and zero smoke

[CuntFace5000]

Must be a lot of smoke if you can actually see it in your mirror.

Do you know if they are better nowadays? Local to me and still considering doing one myself?

I think so now but their attitude stinks - they got high and mighty and refused to accept they had an issue and offered no refund they were destroying dpfs and cats on at least 3 peoples who used to be on here (you can search). The car had never been mapped before and had done 28k.

Long and short, the map was pushed hard and stopped dpf regenerating then it clogged resulting in needing new dpf and sensor which fortunately was covered under warranty. I think their dyno is optimistic too.

Wasted many trips up there and money with them looking at it, just for me to be find the issue myself in 20 mins with ista.

Shame as many years ago I used them and they were good but now in my experience I would not recommended them they'll get maps in and tinkle and a dabble generally with remote sessions, I'd use morebhp in crewe he's done lots too and writes from scratch.
