See my comment on the previous page about this. I have the same setup in a 550.
One quick mod, coming right up! :) |

Disagree if you want but I'm telling you what I'm telling you that pertains to my car 2004, which is fully loaded and has every option besides the cold climate options. Honestly I don't have time to figure out the differences on different models etc, but putting it in "sport" mode only changes the steering stiffness on my E60. If i put in D/S mode then it changes shifting band. Never had a problem with throttle lag so I couldn't tell you. Perhaps it's different because I upgraded all my software in 2011 to v46. Who knows..... who cares.

I know the switch and trim is expensive but i have a special deal available, 1/2 off double the price. Anyone interested? :lol:
|
best I can do is triple of a third of the price! :P

All i can say is when i hit that button the car drives and feels like i got out of one car and got in another on every level. Very impressed for a cheap mod. I damn near spun the car all the way around in sport mode with DSC on going around a corner with a mildly wet road. |
re-re-installed, correctly this time

As you can see my plate and iDrive knob could use refreshing, but i'm going the cheap route for now. While installing the button I found that the cover plate has shifter related electronics built into it that probably also come on the new piece. That may help explain the high price.

Is there a how to on removing the radio faceplate to get behind there easier, I want to try this but I think theres to much to remove to have access to the back of the dsc control module!

AFAIK, cars with a DTC button have only DTC functionality. Cars with a DSC button have both DSC and DTC, and a short press disables DSC but keeps DTC on, whereas a long press disables both.
Apparently the button will control DTC & DSC regardless of what's on written on it. There was a thread about it: https://5series.net/forums/e60-discu...ged-name-6363/ |
