Startup in Sport?
I have an M3 competition.
I know to do this on the F30 you would have to code it, but with this car, is it possible to set it so it starts up in Sport automatically? Or will it always start in comfort? Thanks! |

Nope, always comfort. I’ve trained myself to just hit M1 as part of my start up routine

Yeah, me too. I hit the M1 immediately. I'm just greedy and want the flaps to be open straight away lol |

Normally I backed the car onto a set of race ramps for the install. But even that's not completely required one time I didn't have access to my race ramps, so I just backed the car on to a curb at the opening of my folks driveway. Worked like a charm.

If you want flaps open all the time just unplug the sensors on the exhaust. Easy and free and reversible. I don't get why anyone would buy a valve controller unless they actually just want to be able to open/close it frequently outside of using eco/sporrt/s+.

And by the way, you cannot "code" the F30 to start in Sport mode, either - nor any other BMW, for that matter.

I have my F48 X1 coded to start in sport mode. Did it via Bimmercode.

Your X1 is based on a MINI (UKL) platform with a different electronic system. Not the same as a genuine BMW.
