I was quite happy with my car and was therefore very reluctant about an upgrade. I researched intensive and had finally the following companies on my shortlist: DMS, Hartge, Hamann and Digitpower (Switzerland).

I’ve read a lot of very positive reports in the BMW Car Magazine and other magazines and had quite intensive email-exchange with Mike Cooper of DMS (very good bloke indeed). I’ve sent many PM’s to forum members and everybody reported extremely positive about the upgrade (performance and reliability) and the fine service of DMS.

Finally, I was convinced, that DMS is the way to go and Mike sent an engineer over to Switzerland to upgrade my car.

And now, I regret: I regret very much, that I was waiting that long, before I DMS’d my car. The upgrade is any pound worth I spent for it! It’s almost incredible how powerful it is now and how smooth and harmonic the performance is. Thank you Rob: this is a masterpiece of a remapping!

In the next weeks I will report regularly about my experience with the “new” 535d!

After about two month, I feel the need, to report again about my experience with the upgrade of DMS: it's still very, very impressive! Normally, the kind of power delivery is very smooth, but if you nail the trottle, it goes like a (very powerful) plane. Especially the big turbo is working very strong and overtaking is very much easier and faster than before.

Last Friday, I had my car in the BMW-garage for servicing: nowbody detected the upgrade!

I convinced a friend of mine, to upgrade his X5d and he is now also a fan of the upgrades of DMS!

I dare to rise the question, why BMW don't offer the stock 535d with a performance like DMS!

You'll probably find over a period of a few years that BMW will up the preformance in line with the DMS upgrade. Look what happened with when you compare the power from original 330d with the latest 330d.

DMS 535d is a stupendous machine though...The look on the S4 V8 drivers' face the other day on the motorway was priceless as we were both initially side by side leaving some roadworks and then I started to pull away from him!laugh
