Displaying Gear Next to drive symbol

DsirreB58 · 05-22-2023, 10:45 AM

Hey everyone, I have been looking for months now on how to get the gear you are in displayed next to your drive symbol. I know that if you are in the S setting with the gear selector all the way over the gears pop up next to the S. However I am wanting to do this in normal Driving whether in sport or comfort mode.

I found this 2020 m340i with it on YouTube, here is a picture for reference.

Xhp, you’ll need a xhp trans tune

It´s not possible with the normal software on your TCU ECU.
It was possible to flash the Alpina software in some F series cars that had the same transmission as Alpina used for their cars.
This has changed with the G series as Alpina is using the S58 engine and the transmission that is also used the G8x M cars.

The only way to achieve this is by flashing xHP to your TCU like mentioned by apwm340i
