M50d tune
Has any one tuned a M50d, if so what stage tune and what were the results from dyno test.
Does it effect your insurance at all having a tune and what are the pros and cons to having a tune? thanks for all your help Paul |

I've been mulling this over for quite some time now as well. Generally, I like to give myself, especially when buying a completely new car, some time to adjust my desires. However, coming from a 600+hp C63s AMG, I'd imagine the M50d will leave something to be desired. I'm certainly not disillusioned as to the capabilities (or better said hurdles) the diesel SUV will have in terms of performance when compared to a sports sedan, but every bit counts right? I didn't buy the SUV to win drag races or race, but having a bit more power never hurt.
However, with BMW's OTA updates, I've heard that tuning has become a nightmare, if alone for the reason of having to reflash every time the software is updated. I'd love to stick with a JB4 type solution, but have yet to hear any proper feedback on a piggyback system for the M50d. I may, for the first time, leave this engine stock. Either way, subscribed for more info.
