And the battery, the lifespan when coded/registered correctly is usually 5+ years. Assuming it's being driven. Unless it's super cold, like 0 degrees, I don't think it should cause issues. Especially since our batteries are enclosed and not open. |

Edit:both times that this has happened, I quickly braked to a stop. Both times for a yellow turning to a red quicker than anticipated. |

Correct, since the lights are in an area by casinos, it's best to stop since people like to jaywalk instead of wait their turn. Both times, I was already at a stop. As soon as the car fully stopped, I caught the rpm dropping. May have happened more times than two, but those are the ones that I saw. I may go and burn some gas in a bit, see if I can get it to replicate on video.
Update: burned some gas last night. Shifting from 5th to 6th, I'll see the rpm bounce around a little, about 200rpm. Very minor. I couldn't replicate the other issue. Slippage? http://youtu.be/GvzAEMz2Sfo http://youtu.be/pyWeBcRtJlo Last edited by Christian87n; 01-26-2016 at 04:54 PM.. |

So I joined the IS Club....Traded in my 08 335i for a 2012 335is!!!
Space Gray over Oyster, DCT loved the ride home!!! Car has 45k miles on it, one owner, every option, taking it to BMW Monday have them go through it before the 50k is up. Car definitely handles better than my sedan. I'm Still figuring out the DCT but it has been raining the last day so no real time to play. Anyway, had it less than 24 hours and already a fan |

On another note, I got all my stuff for my first MHD tune Actually still need a battery charger. Will a 15 amp one be ok? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER Last edited by JunkyardDogg; 01-28-2016 at 06:48 PM.. |

I just did the backend flash tonight on mine with the jb4 and its WELL worth it. Since tuning the 335is I've always felt that the DCT couldn't keep up with the tune. The backend flash totally brought the DCT back to life. The power is amazing and the shifts are incredible! Currently running ina0s pump backend flash with jb4 on map 6 and 5 gallons of E85. You will not be dissapointed. |

^ You have the special IS rear spoiler? You want to replace that one?

MHD has backend flashes that are supported by the JB4. Same concept as the flash only MHD but leaves the JB4 as a boost controller. You still use a android device and the flashing module, etc. to accomplish this.

My current plan for mods is as follows:
VRSF FMIC 7" VRSF charge pipe with Tial BOV But i'm torn about which DP to go with. I know some IS guys have complained about rasp and drone which I do not want. I already love the sound of the IS exhaust but definitely do not want to make my car sound like a rice rocket. Is everyone with a catless disappointed in the sound? Is it that bad? Which should I go with? Catless Catted Catless with resonator |

So I finally said screw it and installed my vrsf cat less downpipes. Instsll was a pita...
Anyways, I have absolutely no idea where the rasp is some of you guys complained about. It sounds like any other turbo car with downpipes. With the stock exhaust valves closed, its very quiet too. I was really expecting the worst with the way some of you made it sound. I guess it's all relative, but coming from someone whose driven modified cars for 12+ years, there is no rasp and it sounds fine. Turbos seem to spool more violently now. Good mod. |

It's worked for the last 4 years for me. Albeit, not ideal, but never had slippage. A few years back guys were talking about upgrading clutch packs as the only solution. We've come a long way.

No back end flash? Are you running E85 at all or just 91/93?

My DCT started to slip when I got to the point I was running the E85 backend flash on Map 7. I've heard the new backend flashes have been reworked to correct that. My custom MHD maps have my car shifting harder than it every did on a JB4. I'm at 460/530 with zero slip and about to bump it close to 490-500 shortly so we'll see what happens.

I have the usual bolt ons, no inlets or outlets yet. I run E60 on a custom tune by BuraQ. The car is strong.
