Changing the Power and Torque measurements in Sport Displays? - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Ron Scott · 01-05-2013, 11:09 PM

The following exchange on another thread sent me to the manual, but I couldn't find anything to help there. I suffer the same fate...

Anyone know how to reprogram this?

For no good reason, some people have US standard units and others (myself included) have...other units.

Power is measured in kilowatt-hours instead of HP.
Torque is measured in nM's instead of ft/lbs.

Coding my friend.

Yeah it seems like NBT nav has power and torque units in the settings, but if you don't see the option then it's coding.

I would not bother. The display is merely a moving dyno readout of a generic engine referenced to the tachometer. It has nothing to do with your particular car.
