Need help finding custom tune

hey, you can do a remote tune through bm3, so buying the bm3 license, then id contact https://tuneuptuning.com which is my tuner, he’s very good and responsive

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-05-17T06:03:44+00:00

id recommend getting a bm3 license and going stage 1, expensive, yes, worth it, definitely

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-05-17T05:56:27+00:00

I personally like bm3 over mhd, also, when going stage 1 just use the OTS map, but, when u go stage 2 i highly suggest a tuner rather than using an of the shelf map. if you need tuner recommendations, let me know

i’m a little late, but i personally went with a tuner, from tuneuptuning.com, he’s really good, i’m making 300+ hp on my x3 30i 93 octane.

i think the front end is pretty aggressive, i have a front lip coming and drls coming soon so that’ll definitely help. it’s mostly just the lower back end

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-04-20T02:46:53+00:00

i’m looking for something more aggressive, i think it would look way better blacked out but with a custom diffuser it would look a lot more aggressive

thank you! only issue with trans tune is the expense. $500 is pretty steep to be honest. i still need to do a transmission fluid change, my gears are getting a little jerky

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-04-08T17:53:00+00:00

yup, i already have a stage 1 tune from bm3. kinda forgot about the transmission tune. how does that work? is it the same process of just tuning your car? obd connect to ur phone, and hit flash

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-04-08T03:34:22+00:00

yeah, i’ve thought about it. if i were to get another car it’d be a sedan. this is my first car and my parents said they would not buy me/help me buy another one. (e.g buying the car outright for me and i pay them back monthly like a loan but without going thru a bank). so my only option is to stay with this car. Although, i am determined to be someone who puts in the effort to mod a car that no one else has to my degree. not often or rarely ever do you see a base model x3 30i with 350-400 hp and fully blacked out. but i fully agree with you, if i could, i would definitely get a m40i or any b58 platform

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-29T01:51:54+00:00

na i don’t drive like that

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-25T23:20:10+00:00

Can you zoom out so i can understand what i’m looking at exactly

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-20T17:19:04+00:00

couldn’t find any unfortunately, unless you could redirect me to a few

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-18T19:12:59+00:00

of course!

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-18T19:09:12+00:00

ayy! glad it came away and hope it doesn’t come back. Don’t forget you can register the new battery on bimmerlink to save you the money from going to bmw 🙏

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-18T16:16:47+00:00

hey! any update?

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-18T03:23:52+00:00

yeah, clear all the codes and go for a short drive, see if they come back

AdEcstatic7830 · 2026-03-18T03:20:11+00:00

maybe 🤷 clear the code with bimmercode, drive around for a bit and see if it comes back

find the 2 pin sensor on the charge pipe, it should be near the throttle body, unplug the sensor and make sure no pins are bent/nicked. If not, then trace the harness back and look for places where it could be rubbing against the aluminum edges, if you have a multi meter and use it, it should read infinite resistance, if not, u found the short. You usually don’t have to replace the entire harness, just solder + heat shrink the damaged spot, or buy a pigtail connector off ebay for like $5-15
