So, You are saying The Rpm is way off? Then the rpm indicator will go up to 9000 rpm? \
How about the onboard computer? Any problem with it?
Does the Steptronic indicator M1,2,3,4,5,6 still works?

Thanks

The problem is the needle was programmed in mph, and the rest of the world has km/h.

Even so don't fool yourself into thinking you can reach the magical 8250rpm point of the M5
Who has spoken of 8250 rpm ?

Anyway, you remain under 5k .

If I can buy an US version of M5 instrument cluster, I'd do it. Change some electronic parts.
Any one has one for sale?

Get it from your dealer and do the mod!!
You are the best fred, come on!

It's 62117837868 $689.13
Off 30% => $482. Nah.
I'll do some other mod first, and wait on eBay for good deal.
