Default Mapped BMW 330d

Anyone have one? Having mine done on Friday by Simon Coe (uPsolute) He's done all my previous cars and have been transformed by mapping. It's a Manual box.

Thats going to shock a few people off the lights, if you can get traction.

Me and the missus have a 57 reg 330d msport and i have to admit they are really impressive with great low down torque and coupled with the 6speed auto box.

Just been for a spin and the car is transformed. Was great before but superb now Had him map the throttle response higher up so you only have to touch the throttle rather than having to push it down to the floor which makes for nicer driving.
Do have an annoying vibration from the Panoramic Sunroof though which is slowly doing my head in.

Glad to hear you're pleased with the results, and not surprised either!

Got my E90 330d a Bluefin map 2 years or so ago, and I still look forward to driving it every day! Traction is a bit of an issue in 1st and 2nd, and you won't ever not get the traction control light on under full acceleration in those gears, even in the dry - but I find if you switch off DTC it feels like you can get even harder acceleration. I think the traction control is a bit too instrusive sometimes.
