Do you realize your car could have thrown an error code for any number of reasons, from a bad spark plug to a bad tank of gas? You took that one situation, from which zero conclusions could be drawn because there were too many variables at play, and you've turned it into a multi-year indictment of the N55. If I had a dollar for every time you've posted the phrase "not up to the task" about the N55, I'd buy the Netherlands and proclaim a new law against going on the Internet and posting the phrase "not up to the task".

We get it - your car threw an error code on the autobahn. And yes, we all know there's the other member whose car threw an error code somewhere in Italy and he acknowledged it happened one time and was never repeated. If you want to be upset that your car threw an error code, nobody will take that away from you. My almost-new Mustang 5.0 once stranded me about 10 miles out of Tampa, fuel pump died prematurely. Not a fun day. But I didn't then spend literally years posting about how the Mustang V8 wasn't "up to the task". You got an error code, they happen, can we please move on?
I had it also twice at trackdays as well.

My ex 2012 335i consumed way too much oil(N55) but hey, doesn't matter does it?


Thanks for your positive feedback, greatly appreciated.

I just want to mention N55 was not up to the task how I was driving it.

Sorry, won't happen again sir!


(What do I know about N55 anyway , had only three of them, and being just a new member I should STFU)



Cheers
Robin
