Hi,

I am new here and wanted to get your opinion too.

So I am considering 530d (with new engine 2007 170kw) which is upgradable to 206kw (Hamann remap). As the 530 is 170kg lighter I thing I am makeing the right choise?

thanks
Rainer

welcome. in my opinion, an e60 is an e60. you'll enjoy it nonetheless. what makes it the right choice is if youre happy with it. as for the remap, another popular option with the diesels would be DMS or chippedUK. enjoy the forums.

Take the 535d and then remap it. You will get around 240kw
