On my non-LCI
Before (NBTevo H16303I) and After (NBTevo L17193I) 1) Oh yeah - the startup roar! It took me by surprise when I picked up my car. I was like WTF 2) Steering - seems a tad better. Can't explain. A fraction lighter - maybe? 3) When driving in comfort - the accelerator feels more like sport. Much more sensitive than before. 4) Mystery Boost? - It was and still is raining, so any hard driving was out.

Downsides? Out of pocket and no real changes I notice? Worst case scenario there is some bugs in the new flash that I don't currently have. It's probably not risky though. |

My 2016 does not have apple play and might be a different I-drive version.
I already have some coding because I changed the seats out. Are these updates just for 2017+ cars? |

*I also have to check my software version EDIT: found it - it is Under the Navigation menu settings on iDrive for those wondering. My version is K17052I - so it looks like I'm fairly current Last edited by geogerf; 10-12-2017 at 12:10 AM.. |

I don't buy it. That would be another 50wtq/wtq. Give it a week of driving and what those boost numbers are. I think a lot of you guys are feeling the effects of a hard reset, nothing more.

Who knows. My dealer checked and they had the latest. Maybe yours is different since it looks like you are in Canada?

Crazy thing is, it feels like there is more boost. I have experienced the ECU reset after a flash before, and this feels different.

As others have said, it is possible that BMW has chosen to up the power output of the engine. I agree this is unusual and possibly unprecedented, but the logic that I can see is:

Interested in hearing how this one plays out.
But I'm not sure I buy any argument of them increasing boost by that much. If it was to compete with m240/rs3 etc they would advertise the increase and market the LCI as a higher hp car. Otherwise it seems like there is nothing to gain from BMW from a business standpoint and decreased reliability as the potential outcome which could cost them more. |

Driving adaptation settings is one thing, but it could be we are on really early firmware and that is why we are feeling a difference. I don't have a way of determining boost.

If you can't determine your boost, then you are selling us placebos. Want us to believe this, then get your car on some rollers and prove it on the dyno then. I read and searched the release notes at BMW while my friend who works there did my running in service and there are no changes for the f20 series, which the F87 falls under in the notes.
