I have m240i xdrive. I have been using xdelete for a long time. and quaife lsd diff is installed in my vehicle. But I could not fully understand the working logic of the new sport 4wd feature. Because when I get on the gas, I always tend to slide from behind first, even on the straight, so it is inevitable to see the DSC light. But it is fun to use the 2WD feature while drifting.❤ thanks kevin for the video

@Y.D.43210 2 ай бұрын

It was about time you did a video on xDelete :) I do however think you missed the one most important "issue" and risk with xDelete - that's the fact that the rear differential of RWD B58s is different (=designed for higher torque) than the rear differential of xDrive cars!! Especially for a tuned B58, driving and pushing it in 2WD mode puts a LOT of stress on the (weaker) rear differential, which has proven to lead to premature failures! Correct my understanding if I am off, but please do address this in your review, as this to me is a much bigger risk than the increased wear on the transfer case in the unlikely (or should I say stupidity-based... ) scenario with front wheels not turning.

Thanks for all the awesome information you share! Just confused on when you say M cars, does M140i xdrive fall into that? I just started learning about all these things on our B58 cars, and I can feel that M140i xdrive is rear biased. Is it something like 70% to the rear in normal conditions? But still wondering if it has those uprated clutches like you've explained?

@mrdussel6625 2 ай бұрын

M140i, M240i and so on are called M-lite, while M cars is a totally different trim from M-Lite. M cars like M2, M3, M4 have better brakes, suspension, steering, etc...

Mr Kern I think you did a wonderful job with this video explaining the logistics of a tune like this! I also think it’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen! AWD in powerful cars has so much engineering behind it to in any weather any surface conditions always provide outstanding traction! As these cars get more and more powerful these AWD systems can put the power down! Why in any scenario would you want to disable that?? Xdrive works in road course situations in applying power to the correct wheel coming out of corners! It applies all the power to the wheels in a Drag Race situation for max acceleration! Anyone who bought an xdrive car bought it for a reason! Because spinning ain’t winning in any situation! X delete isn’t accomplishing what drivers want! They want their cars to perform like RWD cars but they’re still carrying all the xdrive weight which in my LOGIC if you’re still carrying the weight WHY not utilize it for your advantage!! Or just buy RWD platforms!! Pay extra for Xdrive pay for a tune to turn it off!!! 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

I am super confused. My understanding is that the xDrive system in the M340i is unable to send more than like 80% of its power to the rear wheels. Cna someone correct me if I am wrong in thinking this? Because I am super confused how there cna be 0nm of torque being sent to the front axle if this was the case.

Tried xdrive sport mode and its pretty cool ! Car feels very close to a rwd one but the little added front grip is nice . With dsc off thre car "snakes" almost like a rwd car but feels way faster .

@DNLSHPP 2 ай бұрын

I believe there´s one misunderstanding. 2WD is opening the clutch in the transfer case completely. also doing burnouts and putting the car on a dyne in this mode should be safe. There won´t be any tear on the clutches. What xAutomotive writes in the support section is, that the cooling oil in the clutch may cause the front wheels to turn. but since there is zero connection between the clutch you would even be able to hold the front wheels with the bare hands. Sport 4WD is different. in this mode the clutch does close and it may cause failure when doing burnouts/dyno runs in that mode.

@rudolfskrasovskis6790 Ай бұрын

thank you, i was wandering this too. i have a situation where my front axle boot slipped off and you know how it goes, axle kaput. so i was wandering if i could install xdelete, and drive it RWD for the time being while i order replacement parts. id go as far as removing the front driveshaft to minimized the torque resistance and basically eliminate his stated "friction", granted i'm still leaving the intact axle on so i guess i dont event need to touch the dirveshaft, whaddya think ?

@@AussieBoss-rj8mf the same reason why you can shift at redline and your clutch will be fine, but dumping the clutch at 7000rpm from a standstill will blow it up.

@@B58_Albo No fault. No codes. Butt dyno detected choppy acceleration from a stop, especially uphill. Then noticed it all the way to highway speeds, though more subtle. Fluid change helped, but a FWD disconnection (and later xDelete to RWD) "solved" it entirely. Now to decide whether to make it BMW's problem (no codes: wink) or bend over and keep an extinct animal alive. One front axle already replaced, second CV boot has failed, driver door soft close took a shit, the rear hatch is manual past 8 inches, the steering column clicks a 11, and there are at least 2 trunk rattles and a back seat chirp.
