White E92 with DKG (DCT)

djflex · 10-20-2008, 02:47 AM

Finally I have received my new BMW 335i on Friday.

I was really busy with driving my car this weekend, so I didn't had the time for shooting pictures. I just took some with my mobile phone and I will shoot some betters this week.

Some specs...
- M-Sport Package
- Comfort Package
- Navi Professional (new iDrive System)
- DKG (DCT)
- Bluetooth
- Black Leather
- Park Distance (Front/Rear)
- Sunroof........

I have to say that I'm really happy about everything in my car. The new iDrive is just perfect. I really love it with all the functions it has. Because I only have 400km yet, I still have to drive really carefully, so I'm still wondering how the DCT Shifts when you drive a little bit faster. Right now the DCT is always shifting quick but still very smoovely.

As i said... I will shoot some better pictures this week

damn thats the 5 series shifter

I was hoping on the DCT that theres no Park.

and whats with the "sport" button?

Nice car!! enjoy

E90330iS · 10-20-2008, 02:52 AM

it looks similar to the 5 series shifter but its not. i wish the DCT didnt have park either.. N is sufficient!

Serious? As I've ordered it, they told me Week 51, which is end of the year. But they told me that they will be able to get it a lot earlier. Next day the told me that it will be delivered in Week 43. In the end they delivered it on Week 41.

Wow man, all you need is some matte black grilles, an M3 spoiler lip, and maybe some new wheels and you would have a perfect 335i.

These are my winter wheels. I'm already searching everyday the perfect wheels for next spring.

what did BMW say about runnning in the engine? 2000km under 4000rpm??

djflex · 10-20-2008, 08:25 AM

I've asked them and I've also asked my friend (which is BMW Mechanic).
Both didn't say "YOU HAVE TOO...."! But both said that it is better to be carefully in the beginning and advised me to stay under 4000rpm for the first 2-3000km.

My father bought a 335i 2 years ago and he never had problems with it. As I remember he also stayed under 4000rpm for the first kilometers. But I can't remember exactly.

My feedback on this question.

Once the engine is at temperature, not just the water like the indicator is showing, you can just go ahead.

I've been told by a mechanic it's the only to make sure the engine is ok, if it doesn't breakdown like this in the firts 5-10000km it will probably not breakdown.

The driving center applies 1000km below 6000rpm. I test drove a car with 750km on the counter, they told me not to go above 6000rpm till it had 1000km

nice ride dj, it looks a bit like mine

darkphantom · 10-20-2008, 09:46 AM

congrats, and once again, I despise you DCT owners!

That's what they also told me as I asked. In the end if the engine is on the right temperature you can just go ahead, but in the same sentence they said, if I can I should wait about 2'000-3'000km with going fully ahead...

I think it's a never ending story with that... But I don't die if I wait a few weeks with going over 4'000rpm. Actually right now I have about 450km and I never went over 3'000rpm...
