On a Mild Fall day last year, my 335i NON M sport went into Limp mode twice on Lime Rock due to heat....

First time was end of 2nd tracking session (so about 38 minutes total)...had to go easy 3rd 20 minute session, and 4th limped again before I went home.

Oil temp's were under 250, which is what confused me and the instructor. I was running 104 octane (VP?)

I have the MPPK, so have decided to skip more track events until an oil cooling or reliable IC solution are offered....

Maybe Lime Rock is just a difficult track on our N55 engines?
