Boost, Water and Oil Temp gauges -?

WagonMaverick · 09-28-2022, 10:47 AM

I've searched, but if I missed it please direct me to the correct link. Is there a set up that I'm missing or a decent aftermarket configuration that would show me all three of these readings? The Torque/HP gauges are laughable and I know I can't be the only one who wants to see the data while driving.

This can be achieved with a wireless OBD2 adapter and the BimmerLink mobile app. I just got around to doing this and wish I had sooner.

I use the Veepeak BLE+ and it works flawlessly.

^^ the gauge pod linked above only works on pre-LCI due to the changes BMW made to the center stack with the LCI refresh, just to save people the click.

Another option is the P3Gauge, it's a digital gauge that goes into your driver's side vent (but still leaves it partially operational as a vent). They're great, I had one on a TTRS in the past, only reason I don't have one on my F87 is because I got an AWRON gauge before they went poof.

I really like this option as it's plug and play and can be easily removed - very cool and thanks for sharing. Will be ordering one soon.

They're even made in USA, HQ is in Ohio somewhere.

When/if my AWRON craps enough pixels (they are OLED screens and tend to fail over time), I'll probably move to a p3 gauge myself again.
