Wondering replacing 116d to 120d xDrive-this winter if I get a good offer.: Thumbsup:
I really hope it gets better, had them on for about 2 months, didn't see any improvment really good point it might be worse on more powerful engines.
maybe the xdrive doesn't have the issue. Sounds like a nice upgrade if you would change the 116d for a 120d xdrive anyways
