i took the car out near heathrow last night, had the car warmed up, was going around 40, shifted to 2nd and floored it...
i was actually shocked at the power... i can definitely feel the difference with the colder air now ![]()

Nope!!! My car's fucked atm. Running on 4 cycl when cold. Its a horrible drive atm...lumpy rough and powerless BUT im changing the plugs on the weekend. Was waiting on the slim socket tool to arrive. Hopefully this cures it or next will be the coils to be changed. Can't wait to say 'yeah im feeling the cold air power' lolol

Haven't had a chance but will go out tomorrow and give it a try. Will be the first time I have run it in cold air since the downpipes and intercooler went on so should hopefully be noticeable

Noticed it takes a extra 1/2 mile for the JB4 to flash my hazards to let me know its at temperature.

I notice the lack of traction, even in the dry at 5.5 C degrees.

Yeah! felt it a little bit...not like a remapped car or you've just installed downpipes, obviously....but bit more responsive!

flew back into Gatwick last night after a week in a Golf 1.4TSi hire car (replacing the 72bhp Citroen C-Elysee that they tried to give us).
Let's just say I enjoyed the drive back with no traffic around and nice cold air for the 335d to inhale ![]() |

Mines feeling very responsive, I keep thinking it's in DS mode when it's in D.
