New addition-G30 530d Msport

We attended an event in Parys this weekend and decided to go with 5er ,which was it's first longer trip since having the map done in October.

We managed 5.1l/100 there when mostly sticking to the speed limit, and a combined average of 5.5l/100 for the entire return trip after doing touristy things in town and some rather spirited driving on the way back .It is absolutely remarkable for such a big vehicle and just proves how good/healthy the map is.

The car is now on 113000km

This sounds like a plan!

My wife got into a minor fender bender this morning where a young driver decided to hit reverse when the traffic light struck yellow ,whilst already parked in the intersection.

Luckily the damage is minor and we should have it fixed in no time.


EDIT:I Probably should have blocked the guy's face in the photo....

With Raza running their free downpipe deal again,I dropped the car off for a DP this morning. Their workmanship is amazing and so is their service.

No I did only the SW initially ,but the downpipe was on the shopping list all along. The car sounds insane when pressing the loud pedal,but when driving normally it sounds very much the same as before,maybe a slight bit louder. It feels likethe turbo spools a bit earlier,so the power feels like it comes in earlier,but that could just be placebo too.

Overall I am very happy with the way the car sounds/runs now.

Thats good to hear man. We need a video of that sound 😅 Raza work is good.
Any change in smoke now after the DP?

I will take a vid and post it here over the weekend.

I suspect that it is smoking a bit more after the DP,but I haven't personally driven it much since the DP and the bit that I did was mostly fairly close to WOT ,so it should smoke a fair amount then. I wil revert after driving it a bit over the weekend

I assume they take the catalysator as payment for the downpipe?

That's correct
