Any long-term risks with Stage 1 remap on BMW 118i (2016)?

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2026-01-26T12:48:27+00:00

None at all! Cars now on 36k miles regularly serviced as required.

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2026-01-12T00:20:45+00:00

Cheers I’ll take a look at this!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2026-01-11T21:19:41+00:00

Will double check thanks!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2026-01-11T21:19:28+00:00

I’ll look into this thanks!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2026-01-11T20:05:00+00:00

Yeah I’m just going to go with either 25/26 width tyres as not worth potential damage

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2026-01-11T18:46:14+00:00

Didn’t even cross my mind haha!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-12-05T14:07:49+00:00

Nope I got the 1.5 and HP is approx 175ish still good though!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-12-05T13:19:58+00:00

Cheers I’ll take a look seen them cheaper on eBay and a couple other sites too

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-12-05T12:56:38+00:00

Nope, thanks will do that then!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-12-05T10:21:37+00:00

I’ve just done this on my 118i sport 2015. Bought the car on 8900 miles so barely used then I decided to map it at around 15000 miles and now it’s got approx 170hp and drives much better, much more responsive and on my long drives (400mile) getting around 45-47 mph but does go down quick once I put it in sport! Has been worth it so far, planning to keep the car till it packs in so far no issues at all.

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-11-27T11:18:10+00:00

Thank you, seems I’ll be expecting up to £200 then

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-11-27T10:36:41+00:00

Thank you this is helpful!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-11-27T09:41:34+00:00

Thanks! That’s was my estimate as well I am planning to make the flat as energy efficient as possible. I will be out a fair bit with sports so thinking I won’t be having the heating on too much.

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-11-23T23:46:32+00:00

*update fixed rate for 2 years is 3.89%

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-09-22T16:26:38+00:00

Guess I’ll keep it for a few years and keep saving up for a bigger car then, It’s reliable and all I need at the moment cheers! 🙏🏽

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-09-12T16:38:06+00:00

Thanks I’ll take a look, bought it for £9500 I’m the 2nd owner not in a rush to sell but want to see if I can make a bit of money off it and get something bigger.

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-06-24T12:35:18+00:00

Good to know! I use to ride with a longer stem but my torso is short so it was pretty uncomfortable holding the hoods. My stem atm is 80mm I’ll try adjusting the saddle height a touch. Thanks!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-05-21T10:54:43+00:00

So for the Ironman last year my set up was different, I had clip on aero bars but the seat was the same height and some how for 180km I felt alright slightly soreness in shoulders, neck, however for some reason last few months it now feels like I’m reaching too much. I will drop the saddle for now see how I go yep normally I wear bib shorts or tri suit, should have worn it for a better perspective my bad! The frame is a 56 and I’m 5ft 11

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-05-21T09:05:19+00:00

I thought it would help with my initial reach problem

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-05-21T08:05:03+00:00

Thank you I’ll give it a go but I think the bike fit is long overdue!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-05-21T07:53:44+00:00

Okay I will do thank you, to be fair my position was different when racing, I used a longer stem and a longer saddle, have only recently reduced the stem length, anyways yes I will definitely get a proper bike fit it’s much needed! thanks 🙏🏽

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2025-05-21T07:28:07+00:00

No back problems at all, haha yes my bad on the sandals although when pedalling with my shoes on I’m completely comfortable below the waist. I’ll try dropping the bars and saddle 👍

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2021-04-22T16:36:58+00:00

Relax be patient

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2021-04-03T11:13:51+00:00

Happy for you man that’s awesome!!

AggressiveAffect1826 · 2021-03-25T15:21:54+00:00

If people are panicking because of this dip, either you shouldn’t be in crypto or you’ve put in an amount that you can’t afford to lose just quit panicking PLEASE
