BMW F30 3 Series 1.6T (N13B16) Sport Transmission Software – Launch Control & Rev Limiter

This software is the original BMW sport transmission software, designed to enhance your vehicle’s gear shifts, making them faster and more dynamic for an aggressive driving experience. Launch Control safely activates features such as exhaust pop (DSG Fart) on modified exhaust systems and the Rev Limiter.

OEM BMW Software – Safe for Your Car!

Developed by BMW engineers, this is the original BMW sport transmission software.

• Factory-standard safe optimization – Does not harm your car’s mechanical or electronic components.
• Does not affect transmission longevity – Power delivery and gear shifts are balanced and stable to prevent excessive stress or premature wear.
• Switch Between Standard and Sport Modes – Provides comfortable daily driving while allowing a switch to sport mode for a more aggressive driving experience.
• Not a chip tuning process! – This is an original BMW sport transmission software update. It is safe and does not void your vehicle’s warranty.

Features & Benefits

• Launch Control Activation: Optimized launch system for maximum acceleration.
• Gear Shift Exhaust Pop (DSG Fart): Aggressive exhaust sound effects on modified exhaust systems.
• Rev Limiter Activation: Enables a sportier driving feel by capping engine RPM.
• Faster & Sportier Gear Shifts: Gear shift times are improved by 30-50%.
• Compatible with Daily Driving: Transmission adapts between aggressive and comfortable shifts, depending on the selected driving mode (Sport or Sport+).

ZF GA8HP45Z Transmission Details

• Manufacturer & Model: This 8-speed automatic transmission is produced by ZF (Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen) and is coded as "GA8HP45Z" by BMW.
• Torque Capacity: The "45" designation indicates that it can handle up to 450 Nm of torque, making it perfectly suited for the 1.6T (N13B16) engine in the 3 Series.
• Torque Converter Design: The traditional torque converter setup ensures smooth power delivery. With the sport transmission software, it allows for faster lock-up engagement and more precise gear shifts.
• Gear Ratios & Efficiency: The 8-speed setup helps maintain low engine RPMs at high speeds for better fuel efficiency while also providing shorter initial gears for faster acceleration.
• Mechatronic Unit: Controls transmission shifts and torque converter lock-ups in real time.
• Adaptive Learning: The ZF GA8HP45Z transmission adjusts shift strategies based on your driving style. When combined with the sport transmission software, it delivers more aggressive shift responses.

Compatible BMW Models

This software is compatible with the following BMW F30 3 Series models:

• BMW 316i
• BMW 320i (1.6T - N13B16)
• BMW 320i (2.0T - N20)
• BMW 328i (2.0T - N20)

What is Launch Control?

Launch Control is a system designed to help your vehicle accelerate from a standstill in the most efficient way possible. This technology analyzes wheel slip (traction control), throttle inputs, braking, transmission settings, and engine speed to maximize traction.

• Ensures a more stable and controlled launch.
• Minimizes wheel spin.
• Optimizes traction for the best possible acceleration.

What is DSG Fart? (Exhaust Pop on Gear Shifts)

The "DSG Fart" refers to the exhaust pop sound heard during gear shifts in vehicles with a modified exhaust system. This sound occurs when fuel left in the exhaust system ignites due to rapid throttle closure during fast gear shifts.
