Very interesting, to be honest this seems worst when its cold. I've used it today but still this very definite lack of response. I will attempt to update the software on it soon and see how it does.

Had the same issue on my 2004 e46, had it remapped 4yrs ago and all is good...instant response on the throttle and full power through the rev range.....had a mobile remap chap come to the house and did it...£250. Very interesting! Was that a 330ci? I had a 2001 330ci a couple of years ago as a ...

Yes I did look on the MOT website for recalls but I've not checked directly with BMW yet. I will try giving them a call, problem is if it goes in there no doubt they will come back with an enormous list! I have found some better step by step instructions for updating it using winfkp so I might have ...

Evening guys, I joined a few years ago now when looking at E70's - back then I ended up buying a Supercharged L322 but several cars later I have acquired an E53 - not a car I ever really considered owning but I'm actually quite enjoying it. I swapped this one for another Range Rover I had and what I ...

[/quote] I have the same engine in my 650i and it is a wonderful engine, smooth and endlessly powerful. I've ...

Yeah I've knocked the cayenne idea on the head.... a moment of cold induced madness I think :) The problem I have is the E70 is same generation as my E63 which is not a bad thing but I can't help feel I'm missing a trick by not moving to an F series (or at least something fitted with CIC). I've ...

Thanks for the information and replies guys. I have to say I was at a restaurant today in the P38, when we left an 09 plate E70 was next to us and I was surprised that it didn't appear to be any bigger than the old rangie! It appeared to be a scruffy heap as well, it drives me had how people can let ...

Evening chaps, new to the site and looking for information on the E70. I've had a good read through various topics and posts and its been very useful however I still have a few questions! I have an E63 650i and a P38 range rover at the moment, both V8 petrols and I love them dearly however I have to ...
