The SKU number is different here but both OE numbers are the same. Would this work?

I'm still waiting to hear from Halim that he wants to change this out based on our tune strategy, but if so, I just want to clarify that I need to change my TMAP with 13627843531, correct?

If so, looks like FCP Euro has a good deal on the VDO: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...or-13627843531

Thanks.

Hi Zack,

Are you running VDO or BMW OEM one? I'm wondering if there is any concern to use VDO's since it's 50% less..

VDO. Haven’t had any issues so far.

1) Why do you need a tmap replacment, is your factory ones broken? If not how much boost are you hitting because the oem sensors can read up to 21 PSI.

2) If you're tuning the car and are surpassing 21PSI you only need to replace the prethrottle TMAP sensor on the chargepipe, the manifold sensor does not need to be replaced or upgraded to 3.5 bar. This is because the manifold sensor measures vacuum and is only capable of a positive reading of ~2.7psi, while the prethrottle charge pipe sensor measures boost and is the one that needs to be upgraded if you surpass 21psi.

3) The sensor you will need to buy is an oem 3.5 bar N20/S55 tmap sensor found in the N20 or S55 powered bmws.

There are many other sources for this part as well, including but not limited to the dealer ship. Just make sure you buy an oem part because aftermarket or ebay knock off sensors are garbage imo, and will cause issues with accurate boost readings.

- Also note you require a tune to calibrate the ecu to support the new sensor as the resolution is different and it can also read higher levels of boost.

- Make sure you do more research before buying this part and installing as this part can cause damage to your car if installed improperly.

- I believe on the F series that this sensor is plug and play (it was for my m235i), but just to be safe make sure you don't require an adapter harness.


Good luck.

Out of curiosity, do you know how I can test the map sensors/sensor?
