335i Alpina gearbox flash

Hi, is there anyone on the forums that offer coding services and can flash the Alpina gearbox software onto my 335i? I've looked around but most are in the states! Thanks

James

Standard answer = Makkan. He did mine and comes highly recommended from this forum. He's in Dartford. But I drove down from Hull. Worth it.

Is it worth doing the Alpina flash on a standard 335i?

The Alpina software was design for a tuned N54 right?

Works better with the JB4 but it will still offer a great improvement even on a standard car.

I did mine about a month ago and I think it's great. The gearchanges are almost DSG quick and it's nice to see the actual gear come up on the dash.
I would say though if you have a more spirited driving style, then D might not be for you as it does change up quite early. However I prefer it that way as there is S or manual for those moments were you need to get it out of your system!
Overall I would say it's a no brainer
