Limp/protection Mode ???
My 2017 M240i have 1.500miles. Yesterday i was doing some spirited driving in a curvy road (Sport+ and transmission in S mode).The car is stock.
Suddenly i completely lost power and boost. I floored the gas pedal and had absolutely no response. My friends initialy told me i'd blew out the turbo or the chargepipe so i stopped to check. Everything was ok. Another friend have a M240i and had the same issue in sporty driving conditions. What do you guys think about this ? Maybe the car entered into a limp/protection mode ? I beat the shit out of my old M235i and never had this problem.... Last edited by AlexM240i; 01-16-2017 at 01:41 PM.. |

Yesterday i tried some rudimental solution. I disconnected the battery, "drained the electric circuit" activating the horn and waited 2 hours before connecting it again. I haven't tried the car in Sport+ mode since yesterday. In Comfort mode and normal driving conditions it feels good. I don't have the OBDII dongle but i'm gonna take the car to BMW next week. |

I cant recall if they include roadside assistance or not......if they do you may want to just call them and tell them to pick it up with a flat bed Driving in limp mode is not really a safe option |

If you car is stock, take it to the dealership so they can check it

I'd say bad gas if you're stock.
