| So, this seems to be a case of some cars affected an some not. It would be interesting to know if the open wastegate is the real problem.

| I see lag writtin than i mean going off and on the throttle midbend how fast does the engine respond. A turbo engine mostly is to late to balance the car. If that lag can be solved by new software i buy me a 135i again. But i doubt it. I think lag is never gonna be solved on turbo engines. I haven t driven one yet. |

Another interesting engine might be the V10 TT of the RS6. I didn't drive any of these yet, though. Best regards, south | ||

| Well, this is nice to hear. I guess this lag issue is quite isolated and by no means representative. It is just very strange that people have been told by BMW Sweden that the change in software revision was made to change the character of the engine. Oh well, there is always tuning
