My Ride: 525d LCI - xenon, tv function,grey dakota leather,titanium silver,244 radial spokes.
The Indian LCI 530i is mid 7's :thumbsdown:
The Petrol BMW's here have to be detuned to lesser power to deal with the fuel quality. Diesels on the other hand can handle the impurties by farting out a small cloud of black smoke when needed, hence no detuning required.
The 525d and 530i performance test figures by indian magazines prove both deliver identical figures !

its been recommended to brake-torque if with steptronic
I thought just mashing the pedal and maybe putting it in sport.
Steptronic starts in second gear in d-mode normally, correct?
