[@moesogood3584]

I can’t afford the car, that’s my current issue. Can you cover that?

[@geekyryanguy]

I have the exact same year, car and transmission. no apple carplay issues or phone charger rattle. only minor issues i have is a rare collision warning blip when no cars are in front (clean windshield near sensor fixes this) and auto blip downshifting, which should have been a toggle separated from the drive modes, like an idrive option.

[@SiRSteel69]

2018 AW 6speed. Stock except for clutch stop. Here are some issues I’ve found: 1. Can’t get rid of the beeping after going into neutral or any gear from reverse unless I start to move forward. 2. The stock shift knob twists left or right ever so slightly (like, one notch) if you move it. Try it. It doesn’t make the shift knob “centered” 3. The instrument cluster plastic screen scratches way too easily. I thought piano black was already bad... 4. Squeaky brakes and excessive brake dust.

[@Unamatrix01]

Great video as usual. Regarding the interior noise/rattles caused when your exhaust valves are open, as a mechanical engineer I can tell you that what you are experiencing is called resonance. The frequency of your exhaust note once the valves are open is causing the plastics and or metal in your car to vibrate. That is not something that is unique to BMW's, any modified car with an exhaust system will have some level of interior resonance caused by the exhaust note. You can try fixing the rattle of the centre console phone charger by using 3M double-sided tape to act as a dampener between the pieces of plastic. Exhausts interior noise is measured in a unit-less range from 0-7, which is called NVH, Noise, Vibration, and Harshness. Noise is self-explanatory it is how loud the exhaust is, Vibration would also encapsulate resonance and Harshness would encompass Drone. One suggestion I think would be beneficial to your channel would be to shoot your special cinematic videos in 4K since your new camera is capable of that. Fantastic videos as always.

[@ThicWhips]

Yeah I’ve got some Adhesive foam that I’m going to try out and I think that that will solve the issue. I had another rattle underneath the rear window tail light and I used some of the foam adhesive and it’s solved the rattling. I would be shooting in 4K but it’s such a pain in the butt to edit 4K footage it takes forever on my computer. So until I upgrade my computer set up I probably won’t be shooting in 4K anytime soon

[@ericm8368]

I honestly didn’t notice much of a difference between the M2 comp and base M2 seats. In fact what I did notice is that the M2 comp seats were actually harder on the bottom and were less comfortable than the base M2 seats. I adjusted lumbar support but it didn’t help with the bottom cushion. Has anyone else noticed this? Is this the case for the m4 seats also? The M2 comp seats look better, but they don’t have adjustable leg support which is very helpful for long road trips. Seems like BMW is cost cutting. Also the leather isn’t any better, but the m4 seats will have better leather. I guess there is a little better side bolstering, but its not enough to actually make any difference on track. If you want to seriously track you’ll need to get a set of recaros regardless. IMO, the only major improvement of the M2 comp seats is the aesthetic.

[@kaiichinose9590]

My only complaint was the seats. That was an easy fix. Got a set of m4 seats in decent condition, took them to an auto upholstery shop and they matched them to my interior with slight tweaks. I did a part of the middle portion in alcantara and color matched the stitching with damn near perfect leather match and it’s so much nicer. I also have an LCI with the executive pack, m performance pack and sunroof. It’s been a blast. I make. 550whp on 93 and for me it is plenty for my road and track car. Now my thrills straight line car c7 z06 with 800whp is when I want to really go fast without turning lol.

[@Mineralneko]

Nice comment man! I also agree about the seats, after driving for 2-3hours my back is on fire😂 btw what kind of upgrades do you have for your m2? Thanks

[@kaiichinose9590]

@Rickr1ck99 Thanks man, I know it was lengthy. For performance upgrades I've done, stage 2 hpfp, lpfp, vrsf 7" fmic, vrsf catless downpipe, turner motorsports carbon intake, ngk sparks gapped, chargepipe, inlet and out let pipe, pure 750 turbo upgrade, bmw m performance exhaust, flex fuel kit. On 93 making 550whp and on e50 blend around 640whp dialed in. As far as cosmetics I went with CT forged carbon fiber kit which includes, psm style spoiler, rear diffuser, sides skirts and front lip, suveneer gts hood, m4 seats with custom upholstery, m2 performance shift knob, bmw performance steering wheel no light with flat bottom, m performance alcantara interior trim and dry carbon pieces. Suspension is still stock until I change my wheel set up but I did do the m2c carbon fiber and aluminum strut braces and m2c steering flash. Sorry I know that's quite the list.

[@Mineralneko]

@@kaiichinose9590 wow that is lenghty😆 thanks for listing all the upgrades bro, sounds like you really love your car! I just got mine few months ago, and Ive only put in M performance coil-overs. As of now I just need bit more power, so i’m thinking of just doing a stage 1 tune. Do you think it’s worth it or should I install Intercooler, etc and go for stage 2? Much appreciated :)

[@kaiichinose9590]

@Rickr1ck99 I think doing an intercooler, dp and intake( optional) with a nice flash tune will really wake up the car and give you good results. Also upgrade the charge pipe as it's plastic(prone to failure) on almost every bmw.

[@mohamadborghol8692]

You inspired me into getting a bmw especially an f30 and it’s also been 9month that I’ve owned my bmw f30 335i and it’s also my first car i even started a small instagram page much love man ❤️

[@CaptainChemtrails]

Totally feel ya on the bogging sometimes. Thought maybe the tune would’ve fixed that but apparently not.

[@switlikbob1]

It's nearly impossible to keep boost up in between shifts on the manual. I you can manage to do it, you're chirping the tires and causing traction control to kick on and bog again.

[@seanpoore500]

Hold traction control button for 5 seconds to completely disable dtc and dsc while in sport plus. This enables you to have complete control all the while remaining in sport plus setting.

[@BaconSandwich72]

Personally I don't like sport-plus throttle as it feels like an on/off switch on my manual M2. Buddy of mine has a custom BM3 tune that applies the sport throttle in all modes and it's great. Feels way more linear (like a throttle cable). The lag between changes is an odd one. There's a big thread on Bimmerpost with real testing done. The only way to defeat it is to code out clutch options....which disables rev-matching and hill start. I've mentioned this before but you should really look at Autosolutions SSK. Just ordered mine with a 20% reduction in throw and the gear shift is like a rifle bolt

[@turbosilversurfer9010]

No comments on the M2 as I do not have one. John, I really like your M2 man and you are a local so, I watch to support but, throughly enjoy the content. I have questions for others in the group. I at heart am an Audi fan boy. I have owned BMW's 08 and 10. I currently have 2020 RS3 and 19 S3 "fun/weekend cars", my daily is a Volkswagen. I am ready to switch out my daily. I obviously am looking at A4, A6, A7, S4 "maybe S6" but, really, really considering BMW 4 series 4 door hatch as the design would be incredibly useful as a daily for my needs. The 4 series seems to offer the convince of the A5, A7 hatch approach in a size of A4/A5 . The 4 series is seemingly a better car , options, equipment, practicality for daily use than the A5 for certain. I am looking at getting low milage CPO 17-19 , 4 series, likely 440. Any advice from owners of 4 series in this group. Should I avoid certain years or motors ect.... Anyone have a 4 series coming out of an Audi A4, A5, A6 ect... that can offer their thoughts on preferences. Thanks John for the great content as always, thank you to the followers who may make suggestions 👊🤙👍

I own a 2018 LCI 6mt M2. Can entirely confirm the lag/bog between shifts is not ideal, nor is the clutch grab. The comment about turning traction/stability control entirely off - is this not able to be done when holding the traction control button while in sport +? I just wished the auto rev-match during downshift was still enabled when traction/stability control is turned off entirely.

[@strongerandwiser2023]

I honestly think the analoge clocks are well better than the half ass attempted digital clocks with the LCI. They look cool AF.

[@Daveyboy_RS3]

I'm new to the channel, So bear with me. The steering wheel with the digital RPM lights, has the entire wheel been replaced with an aftermarket wheel, or is it some type of alcantara that includes the electronic RPM indicator that needs to be installed and wrapped around the stock wheel? I'm thinking of an OG M2 now that my MK7 Golf R was stolen and totaled. And I absolutely love the tasteful mods that you have added to yours. Especially your steering wheel setup.

[@krys_syfres]

The creaking drives me crazy! As I’m sure you experienced in your f30, the doors tend to creak a lot. My mom has an f23 and her airbag cover on the passenger side creaks like crazy (I’m thinking it’s from not being properly installed after the cabin air filter was replaced?) Also, my screen has turned black before on my f30. It freaked me out haha but it’s only done that to me twice in 3 years.

[@coreywagganer]

Totally agree with you bro on the sport plus and the need for a almost MDM mode like setting. I wouldn't want the traction fully off because "mustang" mode just isn't cool 90% of the time. it would be ideal to have the some kind of setup as the M2 competition where you can configure your modes to your liking. Definitely no issues with the I drive though I wonder if you have a loose connection somewhere back there?

[@ThicWhips]

Absolutely man!

[@alexdacosta458]

Hey man, My M2 has some of the same issues. When in sport+ the car seems to pull HARDER but in traction control fully off mode, it allows slippage, but seems to allow maybe 20hp less than sport+. I also feel the short delay in between fast shifts. I just thought it was turbo lag since I have stock DP... hearing you have that problem makes me sad lmao My brother’s 435i had the shut down issue with idrive, but my 2017 m2 has not seen this happen not once (had mine as long as you) but I am also not coded at all with bimmercode.

I've had my iDrive turn off a few times but in 2 years maybe 3 times. I agree 100% with the MDM mode, it's so annoying you can't get the throttle response like in sport plus

[@ThicWhips]

Probably an update needed

[@bmwdriven]

From my understanding you can have your pro tuner set you up with DSC off in Sport/Sport+ mode on a custom tune. With the dsc off the throttle response kicks back to comfort mode.

[@TheLoomit]

Did you know you can fit the back seats of the M4 plug 'n play as well? They sell super cheap, at least here in Europe/Germany. Maybe you consider this to complete the interior look. :)

[@kaiichinose9590]

Another great video. I def agree with the rattles throughout most of BMW's line up. It s even in my F30 340i xdrive. It happens more during start up in the morning and initial first 15 mins or so esp on rough roads. Def wouldnt expect it from these types of cars. Everyone says oh its the sun roof but ive owned all my cars with sunroofs and only has my bmw F30 rattled like this. My e92 335i and 335is never rattled but who knows. Btw your wheel set up is sick, perfect stance with a meaty tire.

[@tmvnm]

The car is perfect except for some minor issues which I in countered while tracking the car: 1- when u deflate the tiers before entering the track, the car goes in nanny mode by which the car will only drives in comfort mode. 2- if u turn the traction control completely off it will disable auto rev match.

[@ThicWhips]

Yeah, the nanny mode with the tires, I realized that like a month ago when I had a leak. Car went limp. Super dumb. My rev match works with traction completely off. But I have my tune set to have rev match enabled in every driving mode. Are you tuned?

[@tmvnm]

Thic F30 Yeah I used bm3 to enable rev match in all mods. However, the thing with the nanny mode is very frustrating since I track my car regularly. The only solution I found is to contact a tuner to completely disable the TMPS sensors but this will require me to check pressures and temperatures manually.

[@ericm8368]

Not even close to the same system but about 7-8 years ago my brother in law and I both had E60 550. Both our idrive would cutoff and reset just like how yours. Sometimes it wouldn’t even turn back on for a day or two. Super annoying cause those unit controlled everything. The idrive in those model are known to stop working and the dealer wanted 2.5k for a new unit. Hopefully it’s not the same as yours.

That iDrive thing is not new. That happens on the F30 as well. I suspect it has something to do with the bluetooth connection and some error it can't handle. Its crappy software and they could probably fix, but you know that how that goes.

[@andrewthompson6893]

I'm not going to address the clutch take-up because for 99% of the guys out there the BMW clutch stop cures it. Same with the seats, BMW had a budget, just be glad the M4 seat is a drop in, as well as the Comp seat. If all you have is a phone charger rattle, and you're concerned about that, you bought the wrong car. My iDrive has never randomly shut down, ever, although I do wish the intro was an M2... Lag between shifts, yes, it exists, but again, BMW has big brother to protect, and there are things you can do to mitigate the lag. As far as Sport+, few use it compared to Sport because it's too sensitive, and both should have some nanny intervention. I was quite happy to find that BM3 gave me back my rev-matching with everything off, so that's the only way I drive the car. I'm quite thankful for the relatively easy things we can do to the OG M2 to make it truly brilliant. The sport cat for the sound, inlet, M4 seats, cdv delete, MPS, the list goes on. What I would have liked to see is the M2 car on start up, and increased cooling in Sport. Beyond those things, everything else to be changed is just fun.

My mount came with magnets as well, but when I stuck it inside my case (relatively thin carbon fiber), it didn't want to stay on the mount, so I've resorted to sticking it on the outside of my case with some vinyl wrap underneath which works really well, but doesn't look the best lol

[@ThicWhips]

You can probably order a larger and thicker adhesive magnet on amazon too

[@2eZfOru]

Thic F30 might do just that

[@Ty.f82]

is the n55 engine reliable ?

[@ThicWhips]

Yup. Very. N55 came after the n54 (unreliable) bmw focused on making the next model (n55) more reliable. The N55b is even more reliable, using parts from the s55 that are forged and can handle more power..etc

For issue #4: I have seen the active sound system gone bad and not letting the idrive work correctly, maybe yours is going bad too. I don’t know if you turned that off with bimmer code or if turning it off with bimmer code is the correct solution... because at the end the feature is still there, unless you change your stereo system. Issue #5 on the shifting side: I think thats because of the revmatch feature the car has on all the modes, except when you turn off everything (TC, DSC). Try shifting fast with everything off to see if that lag on response stops. Idk, just throwing some thoughts.

I have a 2014 bmw f30 and my idrive does randomly shut off it’s really weird

Can you not turn traction off on an M2?

[@ThicWhips]

Of course you can

@@ThicWhips Good. I'm still back in 2009 with my E90 335i and haven't been in an F Series. You really were reaching for dislikes weren't you 😂

[@remack28]

My F 30 does that on the iDrive it keeps turning off after I don’t drive it maybe for 12 hours

[@ThicWhips]

So weird!

[@rogertan6553]

I couldn’t agree with you more on the seats in the M2. For an M-car, the original seats seems like in any normal BMW car. Whereas all the other M models, the seats are way much sportier than the M2 seats.
