Yes, and note that the driver was thrashing the nu*s off it with only 300 kms on the clock. Either it wasn't his car, he's got loads of caaaaash or he's very stupid!

I thought this was the recommended way of clearing the DPF  >:D :))

At that many kms on the clock the dpf should be clean already :)

Impressive.....shame the 'actual' fuel consumption wasn't selected on the OBC.... ;)

BMW give the engines a 1 hour 'high rpm' test anyway so it's probably fine, but I hope they let the turbos cool down for a while. :o

Just waiting for snipez999 to let us see his new toy when it arrives.....it's not that many years since a 3 litre diesel would be around 130bhp, not nearly 400bhp!!

I had nearly 300bhp in my E46 330d back in 2007.

I must have been a BMW engineer in a previous life; but stuck in a groundhog day experience ;-)
