WOT on xDrive - Front lifts up?
Hey guys, have an xdrive 440i. Was messing around with xHP and flashed some changes last week. Ever since then when going WOT from a roll/dig it almost feels like the power is going straight to the rear wheels, the front wheels almost feel like they are slightly off ground (steering gets looser). I'm assuming that flashing again reset the transmission adaptations, but I've never felt this before when going WOT. Any ideas, or is this just how it should feel?
TIA! |

xHP does not affect the xDrive in any way.... The TCU of the xDrive is a completely independent unit and software.
You may have affected traction in general with xHP... that's possible, bot not the characteristics of xDrive, in terms of distribution...

During hard acceleration, it is normal to feel less weight on the front wheels and steering… simply because there is less weight on the front axle
