Just day 5. Pretty happy with stock. I did install reverse camera and wired in the gps. Does that count?

Tried to transfer my Bluetooth module (parrot) but doesn't work!!

Thinking of iPhone integration but only got aux in but no USB port. Can it still be done?

Re: All about Z4 (E89/ E86/ E85) thread

thanks for the pic, cronoboy...

the z4 s35i is very drivable...although comfort mode is a tad too soft...99.9% in sport mode where the suspension is more firm and no bouncy feeling that u get in comfort mode after going over humps...and the shifting is faster...and stays at D6 before reaching D7 at higher speed or longer distance...

DCT is very good...u can hardly feel the shifting if driving in a leisure style..the only give-away is the display of the gear indicator and of course the change in exhaust sound (most enjoyable with the roof down)...only minor problem is at low speed the DCT can be slightly jerky...

overall, it is a beautiful car and definitely a keeper...

i find that in sport mode, the stiffness is just right and not overly harsh

welcome in zee4. congrats on ur new ride. u collecting from PML?

i dun think 19" will really affect fuel consumption that much. its other aspects like weight of rims and pick up from stand still there might be compromised.

anyway dun bother too much about it, just enjoy ur Zeeee

Cool! Thanks for sharing! Urs is a different monster! I m v envious sigh. Got the m adaptive thing too right? Torque magazine said the sdrive 23i is targetted at the slk crowd lol.

Anyway I like the sports mode on my ride too. Feels so much more responsive. Gentle nudge on accelerator and it flies. But fuel consumption will be greatly increased rite? So far it's 13 litres per 100 km. My rocco 2.0 only 10 litre / 100km. I just pumped full tank on fri, by last night, half tank liao

this E89 is heavy that's why FC will be slightly on a high side...............
