reset transmission + DS + DTC FTMFW

volks -- so, when we go into DS, does it just change the shift point mapping, or also the drive by wire throttle sensitivity?

Truth. I had never done it before. Actually kind of scared me a bit. lol

ubern00b · 02-24-2008, 12:58 PM

i love it. the person who had the car before me must have maxed the speed out at 45 MPH. i really wondered if i had bought a lemon before I had done this.

Alpine · 02-24-2008, 01:12 PM

Must've been one of those drivers that drives 45 in the middle lane of the interstate and creates rush hour traffic. Gotta love em... wait, no you don't.

pittyinSC · 02-24-2008, 07:35 PM

Boo, anyone ever like notice when E90post is updating they
find themselves not being able to find something to do

GMWNashville · 02-24-2008, 07:48 PM

to my knowledge DS mode just kinda winds the gears out a little longer and gives a firmer shift...i dont think it has anyhting to do with throttle response and stuff in the 3 series...but i do know that using the "sport" button will adjust the timing and throttle response so it may work similar to that...

haha you guys are gonna be sliding these things around all over the place now haha

pittyinSC · 02-24-2008, 08:05 PM

I drift 24/7...nothing like wasting expensive rubber.

Ha jk Open-Diff FTL

GMWNashville · 02-24-2008, 08:32 PM

haha you can still get it to kick out with open diff man! trust me haha

GMWNashville · 02-24-2008, 09:19 PM

i really need to figure out some way to afford an alpine white e46 m3...haha

Alpine · 02-24-2008, 09:21 PM

as soon as the e90/e92 m3's come out, the e46 m3's value will plummet. You should be able to pick up a 02 or 03 for a really reasonable price!

GMWNashville · 02-24-2008, 09:53 PM

yea thats what im hoping...hell i dont even care if it needs some work haha ill do that for free..just have to wait a while and see what happens cause you can get good ones now for like 28ish...with like 45-50k on em

Alpine · 02-24-2008, 10:22 PM

not bad. you've pretty much got the hook up... because you hook yourself up. lol

pittyinSC · 02-24-2008, 10:34 PM

Ah I love M3's, I wish insurance wasn't bad on them, I cant wait until Im 24 or
25 so my insurance drops.

Oh well good grades FTW means lower insurance

Alpine · 02-24-2008, 10:55 PM

911 if you have taken drivers ed it lowers it even more. I did that one summer, and although excruciating, saved a ton of money.

pittyinSC · 02-24-2008, 11:12 PM

Yea I took Drivers training when I was getting the permit, but

Im on Honors roll so I lowered it pretty good from what it would be.

I think I saved over a grand a year for the parents.

Alpine · 02-25-2008, 12:11 AM

Good to hear. They both add up to big discounts over time. Even in college I'm still getting the good student discount. Kind of funny, but as long as they take the transcript its all good!

TN_3 · 02-25-2008, 02:25 PM

Yeah, kinda sucks. Since I graduated college, I don't get the good grade discount anymore....and I am on my own with the insurance payment, too. No more parents to help out. So treasure these days...they end soon.

At least I'll get the discount when I hit 25 in 7 months

GMWNashville · 02-25-2008, 02:50 PM

haha thats good stuff on the discounts
from what i hear being 25 doesnt even lower it THAT much but i guess we will see haha

ubern00b · 02-25-2008, 03:13 PM

well, i guess im the old guy here

i just turned 26. last year, when i tuned 25, i went from paying like 800 every 6 months to 450. that's a decent enough bump for me. :thumbsup

pittyinSC · 02-25-2008, 03:28 PM

I dont know how high mine is, but probably a lot at least
I lowered it by over a grand

But on the side note,

I want the engine to be noisy so I want an intake haha

How in the world are you affording these mods?? You're 16.. you haven't had a job that long...

pittyinSC · 02-25-2008, 04:56 PM

I get money for grades and stuff, I have saved over time to
since I was about 6.

I mean the rims were for bday and exhaust was for christmas.

I have paid for everything else.
Tint, blacklines, H&R sport springs, Euro switch, Lux 4.0,
M-tech steering wheel, and that shift knob.

I mean I have been saving up for a long time

I know exhaust and rims were most expensive thing, but everything else is all me.

So will be the intake and Valentine one
