One more caution I would add - please do not abuse WOT starts from the dig - it wears transmission (our ZF8 is rated at 660lbft - so with a tune we are already at 600lbft level) and transfer case and I even saw a photo of a X5 50i tuned that broke driveshaft due to huge torque at the start and he apparently forgot to turn DSC off. Other than that - we should be good. Just my opinion.

So the flash tune will wear plugs and coils faster? What about the injectors? If I only WOT occasionally, do you think it’s still safe to follow bmw’s recommend maintenance schedule?
Those pictures look awful, I thought our 50i has the same driveshaft and transmission as M.
