a chirp or even an actual burn out is no problem out of first gear with all system turned off, its the second and third gear snatches that i dont understand why it wont do it.? I may be the clutch delay valve or even the longer throws of the gear spaceing.? This is not a really big deal but even in my fiat 131 super brava i could snatch second gear and it probably had 115 hp at the most.

Well keep in mind... your fiat is a Front wheel drive? so when you are accelerating all the weight goes to the rear of the car which makes the front a lot lighter and hence no weight up there... Much easier to spin the wheels.
On the other hand... the E60 is a rear wheel drive with those nice wide 19" wheels (I assume they are wide since they are 19"s) and grippy Michilins its harder to chirp them. The weight during acceleration is all thrown to the rear all pushing down on those 19"s... makes it stick to the ground more.

You can't compare Italian cars to German cars
. Italian cars are much more fun to drive? ![Laughing](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/laughing.gif)
, which always results in a shorter lifetime of the vehicle and all its components.

Well, the DSC is designed to prevent a certain amount of wheelspin so this isn't a big surprise. Mine will chirp in certain situations with all the electronics engaged, but will do it more when disengaged. Mine is the N52 engine though.

are you sure you switched of both systems, becasue you have to hold on to the dsc button for more then 3 secs to turn everything off. But you probably know this
