  • How To Setup & Use Launch Control On Your BMW F Series
    Now, This Car is a 2012 Model With The (PWG) Waste gate, If You Go into BMW They will make you believe you (CANNOT) Have Launch control coded and programmed to ANY Models before 2014, Which Is Simply not the case at all !!
    They will have you believe this can only be done if you have the (EWG) Waste gate, Which Is Total Crap. I can activate this regardless of year or model, And Most will not even be aware of this. BMW Didn't turn this feature active prior to 2014 Because it was still under testing.

    I have a 2014 550i Msport, so I'm guessing this works on mine since I have both Sport and Sport+ modes. I remember watching Matt Watson from CarWow saying he was able to pull quicker times in Bimmers by either not using LC, or not using the paddle shifters because if you miss time shifts, the car will bog.

    Great video... while engaging the break... launch control. Is it a case of simply releasing the break to launch? With you foot still on the accelerator?

    • @Astonvman007
      @Astonvman007 5 місяців тому

      Yes. These days, many cars with electronic LC rely on the brake. Cars with forced induction benefit hugely from it. Personally, even though some setups can be a bit complicated, they do make it a fun and fairly easy way to launch how you would on a drag strip. Cars on the strip are usually setup with a line lock or a trans brake and a reverse lockout. All of these setups are designed to boost engine production and engage the drive train seamlessly when the car launches. Easiest way to do this is to "brake boost" which is what modern-day launch control actually is.

    I’ve used Launch control on my 335d f31 about 4 times on different occasions, 0-60 in 4.8seconds is thrilling 😎 but the last time I launched there was a real chemical type burning smell from the engine bay, I don’t think it was rubber / tyres and so possibly clutch, I’ve never bothered with it since, not sure I want a clutch replacement service bill from bmw!
