Hey guys just had my 335d rolling roaded and mapped' quick question what gear should the car be in on the auto box for max power runs' cause when he was doing mine I'm sure he was in 2nd or maybe 3rd' Cause the car spools up and at max rpm in about 2 seconds' and will this give off a low bhp results cause I've been reading on net that it should be done in 4th gear will post vid

Seen other 335d on rolling road vids on YouTube and they are at least 8 seconds

I believe you want the gear that creates a ratio closest to 1:1. This is often 4th gear but not always...

Mine was done in 4th. There's a video in this forum to compare.
