Here is a video, I believe from Germany put out 4 days ago about measuring true power of the manual G80 it also mentions what the 1200 mile service consist of . Engine oil and Differential oil change and a different software.

Thanks, I suspected these guys were station on Netherlands but when they test the cars they test at the autobahn so I though it was Germany.

You say at 1,200 they change the engine map? Am I understanding that correctly?

The autobahn is just a hop, skip, and a jump away.

Yes, it looks like something is done to the engine thru software and the engine can be rev beyond 5500 rpm, which appears to be the limit before this service.

That explains it. Thanks

I am skeptical on this, I have run mine way past 5500 several times cause in the moment and stuff....only a couple times though and trying to be good now, but if it actually is only revving to 5500, holy cow is this thing gonna pull hard after break in....I guess I will do an intentional pull above 5500 and see if I can tell.

Asked my CA at my dealership about it, he is not sure , but gonna ask a tech.

Others have experience the car feeling faster after this service, just take it easy until then. My SA told me not to even get close to 5500 rpm until then.

Super impressive.

SpencerC_6MT · 04-17-2021, 01:55 PM

Surely that can't be 500 WHP, I'm guessing they plugged in a calculation to "convert" to crank? When they showed the screen in the dyno room on one of those runs I saw something like 430, so I'm guessing that's the raw WHP number. Worth keeping in mind that the ran the dyno with the front wheels connected, and even if they didn't, it would be an expected, if not impressive, number. Their calculation sounds right, but it bugs me that they didn't present the WHP number.

If it's like every M car in the past this is incorrect. I've revved both my f80's past 5500 before the 1200 mile service. They simply enable launch control supposedly.

That's all psychosomatic. The car isn't faster after 1200 service.

cwhands · 04-17-2021, 02:16 PM

There is nothing restricting the redline and the engine map definitely does not change pre/post 1200 mile service. This needs to be put to bed.

This color makes me sad 😢

I wouldn't be able to pull off such a bold color, kudos to you.

When I test drove one that only had 40 miles I purposely wanted to see if it red line below the 7.8k. It did not. It might be a region restriction.
