So what's the latest news on 335/135 going into limp mode?

HI All -

I've heard the 335 had some issues with going into limp mode when driven hard - wondering if it had been solved or if the 135 is open to having the same issue.

I believe the oil cooler issue solved that problem and all 135's have them.

Actually, another member received a letter from BMW stating that only the 135i with the Sport Pkg has the secondary oil cooler...

I believe that 'official' BMW Customer Service reply has been proven incorrect by actual presence of the oil cooler in delivered US non-Sport Package 135i cars (there never was a 'primary' oil cooler--that was the auto tranny cooler integrated into the radiator that confused some).

There have been no reports to date on 1Addicts of heat induced limp mode by any of the small number of new 135i owners.

I believe it was already confirmed by a member about a week ago.

He had pictures of his non-sport package 135i and it did have the oil cooler.
