N55 engine

Hi, so I always drove a bmw diesel car. I bought a month ago an m235i. I know they re known to be loud engines ( injectors) but im not really sure it should sound like this. ( in this video the sound is not very good tho)

Does anyone have any idea if this is oké or i should worry.

This is a cold start

Thank !

Manual swap with M2 drive train

Hey guys,

I'm about to swap my M235i to a manual transmission, but I also want to use the e-lsd of the F8X.

In order to get everything working properly, I've to code the 2-channel gear sensor of the M2.

I would try to VO code the car (dme, fem, dsc and so on) and reset the adaptations. Something else I should do?

I also read I've may have to drill another hole into the transmission for the gear sensor when I remember correctly.

Did somebody already did such a swap?

I've found a old thread on a forum, but there's no information about learning/teaching the gear sensor.

Front shocks removal

Any advice or videos people know of for removing front springs? I've recently purchased some lowering springs. Rear is done (as it's only two bolts each side) , but the fronts look like an absolute nightmare. I have about 6 hours tomorrow to get them done.

Any advice or pointers in the direction of advice will be greatly appreciated.
