Unhappy

now I just realized that when I put the car in reverse the passenger door mirror does not tilt down.

...and may it's just me but it seems like the car idles a little different at start up.


Any suggestions, advice, comments?

if the mirror doesnt go down you probably have the mirror adjust switch push to the left (passanger side) move it back to the right....

push the control for the side mirrors to the right (passenger side control), that'll stop the tilt when you put the car into reverse...


for the rough idle...did you try the 25 sec transmission reset after SB intall...

Pure genius! Thanks dudes!

BMW should install SprintBooster from the factory!

No more hesitation!

Is it me or does the car shift at higher RPMs now? Never paid attention to them in the past so maybe it's just me...I was staring at the gauges the entire time, dunno why but I was.

***also, if you use the auto-fold function when parked, when you unfold the mirrors, you may notice the passenger side mirror is not in the same place as before you folded them...to stop this, turn off the last seat position via iDrive
