Dinan Stage 1 question
Just installed the Stage 1 tune on my 540 and now my HUD is acting up. Probably just a coincidence but would love some feedback from anyone that has the Dinan tune installed!

HUD issue likely not related. Do not know of any connection between a tune and car display options.

Agreed, can't imagine it causing a HUD issue, unless something has happened to the electrical system which would be odd during install. Where did you attach power/ground for it? My box is on the driver side covered brake fluid/cylinder, and power/ground run across to the passenger side. Power is tapped on the main post by the exhaust side, and then grounded further down by the passenger headlight at a main grounding post.

I've grounded it at the same spot. I'm sure it's a coincidence. Thanks! |

Curious, what is the HUD doing? Also, what do you think of the tune so far? Certainly adds a kick!

HUD is disappearing while driving. Really strange. LOVE the tune though! Really makes a difference, so much more fun to drive. |

Love reading evals on the Dinan tune like this from you and also from Ksoze. Makes me all the more firm about doing the Dinan tune in the spring. So USCfan, was the increased performance obvious on your butt dyno?

In a word, absolutely! You can feel the power right away and you don't even have to be in Sport or Sport+ mode. Although when in those modes and on the freeway the tip in power is awesome. It easily breaks the tires loose on launch too. So much fun.

I had Elite Stage 1 tune on my F30 340i and considering this tune for my 540i but I want to make sure we're referring to the same version. Dinan's older version part # D440-1650-ST1 "Stage 1 Dinantronics Elite" is what I had on my 340i and it was great and never had issues. They currently list only part# D440-0122 "DINANTRONICS Elite V2" on their site. The original had at least 2 more connections than the current V2. So which version do you have?

My my wife experienced this today until I asked her about her sunglasses.
