Appreciate you having me Hampshire and letting us be part of the build, we look forward to working some more magic into your M140! Stay tuned for more to come.
Hi, I'm wrighting from Mexico. HAve a m240i and installed the xhp on my own. I understand you can program the best settings but it would be impossible to send my car to UK. Is there an option where you can share (with charge), the best settings for my car? Thanks !
Kenan Durmisi no I know , I have seen back to back dyno readings using this and the standard filter the charge cooler works better if it’s already cooling cold air not hot , sucking hot air into a turbo charged engine is not ideal
Volume of air is more important than slightly higher intake temps. A bigger intercooler will easily make up the difference. The factory air box is too restrictive
Loving the engine cover ! Air/foam filter is terrible, and detrimental to gains. I'm seriously considering the xHP map on mine, but a little niggle in the back of my mind, is : how the hell can increasing the torque limits, and pressures in the box, extend the life of the gearbox (as this tuner said). Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't understand that at the moment, and would love to be enlightened.
Looking forward to going XHP Stage 3 with my e91 330d wagon. The relative improvement is meant to be even better for the 6speed box over the 8speed (which is already very good!)
I’m sure this does make a difference but did he really say this will improve the life of the gearbox. No way, complete BS. Luke i hope you get the gearbox serviced, I know they say sealed for like but they mean the life of the gearbox. Get it done at 40k
I'm sure on standard setup there is slight slipping on clutch components however using the xhp flash allows no slip due to higher clamping force. To my understanding this is what they mean by kind to the gearbox. My biggest concern was removing torque limit.
Dear sir, great vehicle. Could I please ask a really dumb question, but what happens with MOT? I would think that many of us would wonder when that day would come and how you would pass it? Especially with the exhaust etc?
Loving the video bro, I'm about to do this on my 335i running stage 1 with bolt ones, charge piper intercooler has dump valve, 2008 e93 335i, what setting shall I go for, shall I implement drag mode, how far done wanna go on the rev matching? Cheers
Lovely car Luke. Quick question regarding this video, I've recently installed the XHP Stage 3 map on my 340i (no engine tune), and have noticed that on manual up-shifs in Comfort mode, the gearbox actually takes longer to respond than on the stock map. Have you experienced anything similar? Keep up the good work 👍 Jack
In case you happen to see this, the manual shift in comfort is slower, on the stock maps it shifts as fast as say s shift in sport+, but with XHP in comfort it shifts at the same speed as the regular “drive” mode shifts. Sport is a bit quicker, but sport+ is quickest. There’s an infographic that shows what changes with the stages if you search around a bit
Hello, I just installed a mhd stage 2 on my m240i, but the sport dosplay showes only cca 410hp but not 470hp what it should. I dont have the xhp. Is the xhp the problem?
@@Addselwyn perk of being a ZF, most cars use them. Can pick a 8HP50 which these use for £300😂 or you can go for the more powerful 8hp70 which will hold 1000nm easy.
Do you get the wheel click from the big brake kit that you've installed. Apparently it's a common issue because of the dimpled slotted rotors making the noise. Have you any fix for this.. Got them on my f30 380 mm front and 340 rear. Its sort of a clicking noise especially next to some road barriers or parked traffick.. You help or ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks
I have that front lip spoiler on my 440i and EVRY SINGLE TIME i have to slow right down to almost 0 when going over speed bumps!! Otherwise gets caught!! I have speed bumps everywhere i live IS THERE ANY SOLUTION FOR THIS ??????
Well sorted car Luke,love all the mods done that improve the car,now having the gearbox flash unleashing more driving pleasure can you please do a proper evaluation on those ebc brakes you have added, are the really up to stopping 450 plus bhp ?motech talk them up but there is no evidence of their own work,so can I ask you take the lead and really give us the hard honest truth from the road as opposed to sales talk,your honesty has kept me watching, love the car mate....

The gear shifts seem really quick now. I'm not so sure i would want a shunt everytime i change up a gear. I would want seamless gear shifts. Have i missed it or have you forgot to post the guys details who mapped the box? He sounds like he really knows his stuff which I'm sure he does. 👍 Btw, your car does sound good. Maybe not to the over 35's though 😂😂

It won’t give you more torque, but it increases the torque limit on the ZF box meaning that you can utilise the stage 2 tune. Otherwise it caps the torque in 3rd and 6th to 500NM
This is precisely why this pandemic will run and run. Young, seemingly intelligent people completely disregarding the guidelines. If either one of these have the virus a completely different group of people are now at risk.
There are plenty of these cars running 600+ bhp on the standard box. The box is rated at 500nm the car produces that as standard! Do you really think bmw are going to put a box in a car and run it to its absolute maximum limits? 🤔🤔

Get rid of the heat sucking motech filter , back to standard for more power
Aren't these intercooled turbo?
U think ?

Can we get a pov once you’ve done 50 miles 🔥
Good thinking!
Yes, a spirited driving POV would be great!
U have changed my mind on theses cars love them now 😇
Glad to hear it!
Any benefits on the 135i?
ZF8 is great gearbox standard, should make it seriously rapid after XHP stage 3 flash.

In exactly the same boat as you mate.... Have you had it done yet? Presumably if you don't like the map you can unflash it.
ONE OF THEEE BEST M140i,s👌👌👍
Thank you!
The interior trim needs wrapping in gloss black!👍🏼
Naaaah it needs alcantara
les30istes anything other than what it’s got lol
Just done mine. Wouldn't say its transformed but the gearbox feels a huge chunk better with a stage 1 map.
Drove behind you earlier today getting on the M3 @ Junction 6... Have to say the gear changes sounded great! 😄
Hahah awesome! Yeah you get some great noises on the up shift 😍
Looking forward to going XHP Stage 3 with my e91 330d wagon. The relative improvement is meant to be even better for the 6speed box over the 8speed (which is already very good!)

Can you please do an update video on how its going !
What exactly went wrong last time with the gearbox??
Torque limiter caused it to happen. Same happened to me in the past it’s to do with the torque limiting on the ecu
Is the XHP stage 3 safe ? I've heard 2 is safe but not 3 ..
Awesome video Luke, love watching your channel keep it coming! Car is looking great!

Could you please share the guy that installed it to you? Tks
I wonder would this make a significant difference to a standard cars gear changes and if yes I assume it would also effect warranty?
It’s made a huge difference now I’ve completed the 50 mile bedding in process
Mark Rhoden The warranty on the gearbox was gone the second the engine was mapped
Mark Rhoden don’t think there is much warranty left to be honest! 😂
I wouldn’t worry about warranty too much , there are plenty of low mileage m140 cars sat in salvage yards parts are cheap now

glad all is sorted cheers steve 👍 😀
Stage 3 is dangerous especially in sport+
Hi Luke, what stage did you go with the xhp or is defined coding preferred settings different?
Stage 3 with minor adjustments from customised settings i would imagine

very nice!, is this with a MHD Tune combined?
Does this affect the warranty on the gearbox?
I'd appreciate an answer to this as well.Would also like to know if the gearbox deteriorates over time
Presumably yes, gearbox warranty would be void
Mr T The gearbox warranty was void when the engine was mapped
Is ur car ceramic coated Luke? Think it needs it ASAP!
Not yet!

Was this filmed before or after Chloe’s drive and episode with the gear box? What was the result of that issue?
This was filmed afterwards. The issue was basically due to the gearbox not being mapped
Are those bangs by up shifting coming from the xhp stage 3 or was it there before?
Befor to but now just louder
No, they were not there before. This is due to the xHP
@@hampshirephoto thanks! Do u know if they get added with stage 1 or 2 as well?
So what was the issue that your girlfriend has when driving it last video?
It was down to the gearbox not being mapped and the car getting confused. This has, obviously, now been sorted :)

Do the TCR review please!
Great cars these! Looking at one myself as a next project to film!

Told you😁
The ZF in those are only built up to 500nm of torque. With a map on the engine and gearbox I doubt it’s got many miles left before it blows up!

8HP50s run 700nm reliably, even if it does go wrong he can pick on up for £300 or even change to a 8HP70 which can hold 1000nm reliably.
