I don't care because the other tune doesn't warranty the vehicle and from what I have heard is not responsive to any issues you might encounter.

That is wheel horsepower. Dinan does things differently. Ordered mine today, hopefully installed Jan 2. Also have ER catted DP and charge pipes on the way.

I'm ok with the HP and torque of my 2.8 X1, I'm more interested in the reliability, warrenty, and fuel economy. I'm into sport bikes, so there's no way to make the proformance I get out of my Ducati, in a car that I could ever afford. But what I would really like is to get rid of the horrible hesitation the X1 has from a standing stop, it's downright dangerous if your not expecting it. Has this been fixed with this unit? And is your warenty good in Canada as well?

Lastly, if the end-user is not happy with the DINANTRONICS Performance tuner we offer a satisfaction guarantee so they are free to contact us within 3 business days and we will refund them the cost of the unit (labor charges are not covered). We are sure they will be satisfied with the performance and ultimately the support from the factory matching new car warranty which is why we offer this guarantee. If you or anyone has any specific technical questions I would encourage you to reach out and call us, as the sales department is much better equipped to answer the technical questions than I, the random internet/online marketing guy. |

I have never noticed a hesitation on the throttle response on any of our test N20 vehicles (pre or post tune) so I really can't say that it got fixed or not. However, we do not alter any of the throttle settings so I would doubt it would resolve your issue unless it just happens to be a by-product of something we do alter. Is this happening in all comfort settings or just in sport +? May want to get the car checked out since that is not something I have heard before. |

I have only driven two BWMs, my X1, and the one I test drove. But from what I have read on this forum, it isn't just mine. The next time you drive one wait till the last second to pull into traffic from a complete stop, then stomp on the gas. Make sure you have a extra pair of underwear. There is at least 2 full seconds before anything happens.

Thanks for your response.

You have stated that you cannot edit fueling maps and that you do not rely on the ECU to autocorrect for various sensor input. To the best of my knowledge that is incompatible with modifying lambda target in a closed loop fueling system. Regardless of any sensor data you manipulate, in a closed loop system the ECU will always autocorrect back to lamda. If you managed to pull this off somehow, that is really cool. Quote:
I am not an expert here and could be totally wrong. I think it would be tremendously helpful for Dinan to show some graphs or logs or other data that illustrate the level of sophistication of their engineering. It is one thing to say "we interface with more sensors, trust us" and it is quite another to say, "We are more sophisticated than other piggybacks because connect to three additional sensors (xxx, xxx, and xxx) and have the capability to modify target lambda via spoofing o2 data. Attached is a log where you can see we have changed lambda to 13.2 for demonstration purposes." Last edited by paradoxical3; 12-25-2014 at 12:55 AM.. |

Mine was supposed to be in on the second of Jan, thanks to regular ass mail, I guess it won't happen til late this week or next week. Still waiting for ER to tell me when my DP and charge pipes are going to be shipped.

What numbers are real?
Looking at the graph I'd like to know why there is such a discrepency between BMW stated numbers and Dinans measured numbers prior to the tune. What are the real numbers? Is BMW under reporting, if so why?

Our charts are shown the way they are just so its clear that we are not taking credit for power we do not make. As to the reason why they are being underrated... your guess is as good as ours. |

Unfortunately, we do not have any dealers in Germany.
If you are still interested Since their is no dealer close by we could ship a unit directly to you. If you are interested in this possibility give our office a call (1-800-341-5480) and we can explain that process in more detail. |

The product description mentions that you can change your mappings via bluetooth. Is this via a specific application?
Are there ways to set preset buttons in idrive to program specific mappings? Do you have any measured fuel economy results using the new mapping compared to stock? |

The maps/bluetooth functionality is strictly a dealer ability at this point. In the X1's case there are no other stages or maps available as of yet anyway so at present there is no feature to speak of. An iOS/Android app is in development that will ultimately be able to do the map/stage changing through bluetooth for the end user. So it would be a specific Dinan app and not anything integrated into iDrive. I have not heard of any definitive release date on it but they have been working on it for quite some time so hopefully sooner rather then later... |

Had this installed on Thursday, really disappointed. I think my car actually lost power. Falls on it's face at 5k RPM. Took it back to the dealer yesterday and they confirmed something isn't right. Test drove a 328Xi with the tune and it definitely had a lot more go. Anything we should be looking for? Maybe a faulty box?

Are you in the Dinan tune 328 as a loaner in the meantime out of curiosity? |
