I see Sky high is triggered again.

I see that ProjectBoost is triggered. I only say that because there's no reason for this post. Please take it to PM.
I see that there could be long term wear on the xdrive system by using this. Especially when PB is triggered. |

So many people in here complaining about this app and the creators. This isn't their first app. Xdelete already supports dozens of BMW vehicles without issue. There's no long term wear from disengaging the clutch to the front wheels, they just spin freely with the road. It's pretty simple.
Maybe if you guys would do your research rather than unintelligently berate people for modding their cars, then you might be useful. Might. If you don't want the ability to turn off xdrive at will then there is no point for you to be commenting in this thread. You only sound jealous that you can't get the best of both worlds, or just plain asinine.

For all intents and purposes the E53 ATC500 is functionally identical to other x-drives. It can also variably apply and remove torque from the front axle using an electric motor to engage/disengage a multiplate wet clutch. |

I give up.
"The front differential is a fully locked differential..." Not sure how you read that as the car has no differential. It's ok to me if it reads that way to others, but I have read it in many different ways and intonations, and still can't get it to convey out that there isn't a differential. My point is that it is a locked differential on the F30. This would be similar to taking a Ford F350 truck that can lock the front diff to get through tougher terrain. I have extensive experience with the F30 system, transfer case, differentials, and the electronics systems. You're free to contest that if you want. The E53 has a full-time awd system until 10/2003 models (2004). I suppose that point we could have both been more specific on. The systems are different.

I'm just f-ing with you guys. I really hope it works out as you desire. However, like I said, I would not blindly interfere with anything related to the vehicle's traction or stability control until I know for sure how it affect the entire operation of the system. My perspective is different from you guys because I personally witness a 2002 Mini Cooper S, without stability control, attempting to race me around a turn, then lose control and crash into a brick house. The motor flew 100ft away from the vehicle. A week later, I passed by the scene of the accident and saw there where flowers up, against the house. DSC was a $250 option that year, I guess the owner wanted to "feel" the raw car instead or believed traction was for pussies. Long story longer; the XDrive works with in conjunction with the stability control. Disabling one via this patch might inadvertently switch off other aspects of the protection system. This is not a 4X4 vehicle where it's designed to toggle the axle power distribution. Something similar happened when I disabled "rev-matching" on my M2, as a side affect, it also disabled the "clutch position sensor" and every feature which was receiving data from that sensor; including "hill-assist," "anti-stall," "one press start" ect. Which was not explicitly stated, when the option was offered on Bimmercode, which they have since took off their pre-populated menu. If some of you guys want to roll the dice and mess around with potential life-saving technology. More power to you, I'm not hating and I couldn't care less. It just means less people in front of me, on the expressway |

Considering it renders only 2/4 of the wheels working I guess they are doing what's advertised?

My view as well. The reason I couldn't help myself writing in the thread was my shock how easily people accept to be guinea pigs for potentially life threatening experiments! I wonder, if tomorrow another app developer comes up with the idea to disable the front brakes (just because it would be fun to use the pedal as a hand brake) - how many would jump on it straight ahead? I used to think the preventive and control measures in countries like Germany are extreme, as people have at least some common sense. I don't anymore.

Man you naysayers are ridiculous.
Keep your xDrive and stability control turned on if that what makes you comfortable. But don't spew BS that it is unsafe to shut of stability control, use xdelete or drive a RWD car. Maybe you guys need the "driver mod" to handle a car without that stuff. Some of us are perfectly comfortable doing research, understanding actual risks and modifying our cars. I have spent at least few hundred grand modifying, tracking and racing and street driving vehicles over the past 20+ years. Engine swaps, forced induction, custom fabricated suspensions, remapped ECUs, etc, etc. Always someone with an uninformed opinion that something doesn't or won't work or will blow up. Thanks for the "advice". I was an MHD beta tester with my F30. A bunch people jumped in the thread about how stupid the beta testers were as we were risking our cars. I have not seen a report of engine failure on a beta tester for MHD or any ECU tune on an f30 from any of the tuners. Same with xdelete on e chassis cars, no failures or incidents that are related to all the BS in this thread. These tuners are not all a bunch of hacks. They spend time researching and developing their products, figuring how things work. Sure they have some connection issues with app. Can't test it on every single smart phone configuration on the market. I had the "Tazer" OBD 2 tuner for my Jeep SRT. Had a mode to "force rear wheel drive". A bit clunky to use, but no issues in RWD with the nannies shut off. I am trading my f30 in on an f85 next week and will have xdelete as my first mod on the f85, followed by catless DPs and BM3. Naysayers be damned. End Rant. |

1. Front differential is the device that distributes the power to the left and right front wheels. It has one input and two outputs. Picture: 2. Fully locked differential forces both left and right wheels to spin at same rotational speed. 3. Our cars do not have a fully locked front differential because you can rotate right wheel when left wheel is stationary. 4. The front differentials of our cars are not controlled by software in any way. 5. Transfer box cannot participate in the control of rotational speed differences of left and right wheels because it has only one output which then goes to both front wheels via front differential. I thought from an earlier post that you are in fact talking about transfer box when you talk about front diff but now I am not sure anymore. |

Much appreciated, I'm just a little curious to see if anyone has had any issues with the iPhone app.

If it were locked, both tires would always turn at the same speed and they do not. If both wheels always spun at the same speed there would be no need for any differential. It is neither a locked differential, nor an LSD. It is a basic open differential as evidenced by the spider gears, w/o LSD clutch pack, shown in the photo I posted. |
