Launch Control
Hey Guys, I traded in my 2011e93 for the 2013 Alpine White M5. I just completed my 1,200 mile check up. I tried activating LC but its not engaging (yes, I'm doing it correctly). Does this feature need to be "turned on" during the initial service or should I wait another couple hundred miles before trying again?
Thanks

It does need to be enabled by the dealership. Also, you must make sure your engine and trans temps are high enough. With a little practice you can get it every time.

Lol. They really did over complicate it.

I would be careful (have lots of room around you) unleashing LC on cold pavement. I tried it at 7 Celsius on summer tires mind you, and the ass end went everywhere! Fun but rather scary if you are not expecting it!
