Re: 95 vs 98 any different on F10? Actually in my previous cars (non-turbo merc), I found that 95 gave better mileage than 98. However, 98 seemed to give more power. My friend also confirmed that on his non-turbo car (japanese). I just got back from China work travel - 95 is their highest...

Re: Can ConnectedDrive be retrofitted? Do let us know if you managed to get this feature. Thanks

Anyone knows if we can retrofit our existing F10s to get the full ConnectedDrive features? It seems only bmw cars sold from July 2015 onwards will get this full feature. So what about pre-July cars? If can retrofit, any idea how much that would cost?

Re: Navigation Map update Can check with Codewerx too!

Re: Heads Up Screen Retrofit Review I think one of the site sponsors quoted me S$7k for HUD retrofit - so I stopped thinking about it since. Yes, I too was concerned may have repercussions for such a major retrofit. By the way, can you post some pics on the HUS? What brand is that?

Re: F10 fuel consumption Agreed that Diesel is the best way here. However, the road tax is relatively prohibitive unless one chalks up over 10,000km per year of mileage perhaps. I think I'm hitting 8k per year mileage so still not worth it.

Re: Radiator replacement Anyone else who has replaced radiator? What mileage before you had to replace it?

Re: Radiator replacement May I know what is your mileage when the radiator problem started? Happens every two years?

Re: F10 fuel consumption Interesting to see a posting from Fishfish that 12L/100km is 'usually' possible. Here is one way I can try to be more objective to gauge fuel consumption: presumably the ECO PRO will result in highest fuel economy? Then we can check how much fuel savings (ie. the km...

Re: F10 Interior ambiemt light I see ... that explains. Thanks!

Re: F10 Interior ambiemt light Pardon my ignorance (or maybe for not reading the manual), are there different packages for the interior lighting? On my 2014 F10 (NBT), the only options on my LCD display is Classic or Modern. Yet from youtube videos, I see others having colour options like...

Re: What makes BMW cars the Ultimate Driving Machine? Got any videos to show what stunts can be done? Just to give an idea ...

Re: WTB:18-inch original/stock rims for F10 Several ways : (assuming you are looking for original BMW rims) a. buy brand new from PML b. check with tire shops - some of the sponsors for this forum got traded in rims. I got mine from a Bt Timah shop. c. put a post here and see if any...

Re: What makes BMW cars the Ultimate Driving Machine? Wow! Thanks for all the comments. Why I purchased the F10 instead of going back to merc? 1. C&C couldn't match what PML was offering for my f10 2. current E-class backseats cannot be folded down whereas f10 comes as standard The first...

Question to car experts in this forum - in practical ways, how does a typical driver (under Singapore road & enforcement conditions) tell that the BMW car is really superior to be called the Ultimate Driving Machine? Under Singapore road conditions, i, as a typical driver, have not had...

Re: F10 fuel consumption So far, around 7km/L seems like typical fc. Guess I should be happy with my 9.8-10km/L then. I think what disappointed me about the F10 fc is the impression it gave me - not very accurate leh. On paper specs, the F10 and new E200/250 have very similar fc. Also BMW...

Re: F10 fuel consumption Good point - E200 on 245/45R17 while F10 on 245/45R18.

My F10 520i is now 4 months old and hovering around 3000km mileage. I noticed my fuel consumption (Shell 98 ) hovers around 9.8km/L to 10.1km/L. To me, this doesn't seem good. The specs say the car should be hitting 12km/L to 16km/L! Even my previous E200 (based on same driving habit and...

Re: WTB: Used original higher end audio speakers for F10 Interesting! Do share when you have ms-8 installed. Do you intend to install it yourself or get shop to install it? Where's the best place to get this? You know how much it may cost?

Re: WTB: Used original higher end audio speakers for F10 Is there a good amp to drive my new front door HK speakers and I can perhaps change the stock subwoofers + rear door speakers - all for < $1300 ?
