Is that with the RS as well? Also, I didn't get app control. I'm at level 5 right now and it's running like normal, gonna bump up to 6 and see how that goes. I still need to change plugs though

I’m not sure about that, it sounds like it’s similar to the older version, RCU.
Are you in sport?

Some say that it takes a tank of gas or so for the vehicle to adapt. I’m not sure about that claim, but there could be some truth to it.
Bump it to ‘6’ and put the vehicle in Sport mode and give it a shot.

Lol must be nice. I won't be doing any driveway washes for at least 2 more months
If I ever become rich I'm buying a house where it doesn't snow lol

Let's trade houses for a bit. I could use some snow in my life. It's been a rainy/warm winter here in TN I normally make the short drive to NC to snowboard but weather not cooperating.

Lol I used to love the winter, playing chicken on G.T's, going off jumps lol. But, after a severe motorcycle accident years back that is no longer the case. Now I just want sunshine and warmth.

Runs very smooth after I replaced them. And I didn't gap it.

Thanks. Just ordered a set.

Whenever the NGK 97506 comes up, people automatically give the gap of .020ish.

But what about a bone stock N55? What would the gap be If installing the 97506?

I think you can throw them in without gapping. just verify all 6 are the same gap out of the box. Also, if its an issue, you can buy the BMW stamped plugs.
