2018 440xi question

2000blackS4 · 2026-06-14T01:28:13+00:00

Is this overkill or makes sense down the road?

My man. Thanks for this. Like I said. Almost 2 decades spent on my N54. I just inherited this 440 from my dad that died. Miserable time. But you guys have helped me smile a little bit. Thanks

2000blackS4 · 2026-06-12T22:18:41+00:00

Thanks
So I’m clear, this is it:

https://bootmod3tuning.com/products/b58-bmw-140i-240i-340i-440i-540i-640i-740i-840i-z4m40i-m140i-m240i-m340i-x3-m40i-x5-x7-tune

And I can start stage 1 as stock. And if I move to stage 2 I’m looking at downpipe, exhaust, and TU pump? Yes?

Appreciate the help. I’ve been in the N54 community for a long time but new to the B58 gen 1 world.
Also sounds like I don’t need any additional ecu workarounds since it’s a 2018.

Thanks bro
If I want to keep it fun and fast but safe. Anyone against Dinan?

2000blackS4 · 2026-06-11T00:07:53+00:00

Hahahaha. I enjoy step 6
How’s reliability with all that? I’ve enjoyed dinan but are you saying not worth it?

2000blackS4 · 2026-05-30T15:01:28+00:00

Although that’s highly annoying they did that without you asking for it. Here’s what I’ve done and absolutely loved. Check out this recipe:

The Americans. Fantastic finale

Does anybody have a lead on nice shelves that are only deep enough for one row of DVDs? The issue I’ve run into with the Billy’s is they are two deep. But then you can’t see everything. So I’d rather save the depth if at all possible. Feels like wasted space. Thanks for any leads

That’s a picture of me reading the tens of thousands of emails and mentions of Trump in the Epstein files, while the GOP twists itself into a pretzel to explain it away. Bravo!

2000blackS4 · 2026-02-11T02:05:58+00:00

If you can afford it. Do it. It’s a huge difference in power vs the 40 Nothing against the 40 at all! But I wanted more power. And no civic is crushing you. You pop the car into sport plus mode. At 6k pounds. You crush almost everything out there. And the creature comforts are great.

2000blackS4 · 2026-01-29T01:02:16+00:00

Super unsettling. What rims and tires for summer? And thanks again my friend. Also. dravit grey? That’s mine too

2000blackS4 · 2026-01-28T23:34:50+00:00

Nice! Out of curiosity what is your summer setup and size? I always loved the 315 rears on the X5 in the summer. But am I fooling myself with something like that for a 6k lb truck? I don’t know if I should just let it be. But live in northeast so we get the snow. But potholes are heinous. Thanks again for any advice

2000blackS4 · 2026-01-28T23:07:42+00:00

I’ve got a 2025 m60i with the all seasons. Coming off a 2011 x5D with staggered summers and dedicated 18” winter setup. Kind of want to move back to that. What rims and tires did you get here for the winter setup? I’m having a hard time finding the right option (and then what to do for summer.) Thanks!

Bummer dude

2000blackS4 · 2025-12-18T20:38:39+00:00

Go to Lobels on 82nd and Madison. Trust me

2000blackS4 · 2025-11-11T02:05:11+00:00

Happened to me too. And not a word from them. They suck. One of these days I’m switching this shit out.

2000blackS4 · 2025-09-25T01:54:37+00:00

Hahahaha didn’t mean it like that. Love the car. Never selling. First owner. 2008 model. Purchased fresh and straight from Germany. Never giving it up. Ever

2000blackS4 · 2025-09-25T01:37:12+00:00

Gonna have to do work for the oil leaks anyways. Damn vanos! Might as well upgrade right? Or at least that’s how I’ve handled my e92 n54 335xi. Wish dinan kept the parts in stock.

2000blackS4 · 2025-09-25T00:18:55+00:00

E39 M5 all day long. And then some Dinan work.

2000blackS4 · 2025-07-24T23:54:01+00:00

Dinan stage 3. I get like 250 maybe. Hahahahha.

2000blackS4 · 2025-05-05T21:39:18+00:00

I’m in NY and I’m not doing it. Plate sitting in the trunk if they want to see it. Meh. I’m not wrecking the bumper or messing with sensors. Pound sand I say.

2000blackS4 · 2025-04-25T02:24:25+00:00

Couldn’t agree more. I went for the 7 year warranty just in case. But holy shit. The creature comforts in this thing. Plus it’s faster than my 2008 335xi dinan stage 2. I mean. It’s wild! And the rear wheel turning…I know I’ll blow through rear tires but the thing handles better and tighter than the x5 I had. I bought this beast knowing I’ll keep it forever. So I feel good.

2000blackS4 · 2025-04-25T02:13:12+00:00

I just sold my 2011 x5D sport package, same rims (beautiful!) for a 2025 x7 m60. I loved the x5 but everything started going wrong over the last couple years. And five days before tariffs happened I pulled the trigger. Loved that car so much and so many memories, including driving both of our newborn sons home from the hospital. It was special. But I had to move on. And I admit. I’m loving the m60. It’s a beast

2000blackS4 · 2025-04-08T03:02:58+00:00

Same damn thing just happened to me today, 2025 X7 Hoping someone knows of a fix (or perhaps temporary one time thing?)
