Ovekvam, as you seem to be a sporty driver: what are your thoughts on the current DSC-off mode and a potential M Performance differential?

That would of course be an improvement, making the car more predictable beyond the limit. A TorSen-type limited slip differential (like the Quaife) would even work fine with the DSC/DTC system.
I am surprised about how well the stock e-diff is working. Our 116i does not have all that much traction issues since it doesn't have all that much power, but I can go earlier on the throttle in corners with this car than I have been used to before. When the e-diff does its thing, you can feel the car rotate slightly into the corner, killing off the power-on understeer you would otherwise expect from the weight shift to the back.
Despite drifting a whole weekend on an ice track, the rear brake pads do not show excessive wear.
