Quick question. Why would you still want the m3 hw? Are there other advantages?

really excited this is finally coming for the DCT. I am still patiently waiting for the disable auto shift at redline feature to be added. Which it should be at some point from what I e heard.

Well the shifter looks cooler. I prefer the physical motion of it concerning reverse position and neutral and such.
Aaannddd.. I would have to buy new pieces to put it all back together after all I've done to make it nice.
Also with the M3 that I don't see in the xHP options is lack of creep when you let off the brake. With the GTS software I have to actually push the gas to go.

yeah I would totally feel the same way if I were in your shoes. Was also trying to decide if I still needed to find the m3 hw. Sounds like I should wait and see how xhp is for now. Thanks for your response.

What he said^ The M3 hardware also enables drivelogic. The ability to change shift behaviour on the fly. Another M3 feature is M dynamic mode.

I'm going to hang onto my M3 stuff for now. If I keep having timing correction issues, I'm going to suspect my torque converter or something like that and that may force my hand to install all the DCT stuff at that time. Imaging 335is DCT with 3.46 FD :)

Who will be offering custom trans tunes or will we be just using the OTS ones available.

Do New Zealand get it first as we see Monday before anyone on here 😂

I’ve now seen that but there isn’t any option through the actual app?
I go to support check and it’s still on 6 or 8 speed options
You need to update the app from the playstore. I think the iOS is still not updated however
