Turns out it was condensation not smoke - I am getting paranoid about this car.
The original problem was blue smoke - definitely burning oil.
Everything seems OK just now.

Didn't use the car much over the weekend, but on start up today the smoke problem was back.
Going in to see them tomorrow.

Just got the car back from the dealer - John Clark, Tayside.
They have replaced the turbo unit completely.
They also gave me £300 in gift vouchers for my troubles.
Lat's hope they havre resolved the problem.
Watch this space!

I bought a new 118i in April 2017 and after about 1,000 miles I noticed blue smoke appearing from the exhaust when starting the engine from cold.
The dealer took the car in and and returned it after 3 days saying this new engine has a fault where the rocker-box breather allows oil vapour to pass into air intake for the injection system. The oil vapour then condenses as the engine cools down and when the engine is restarted the oil is sucked into the engine and burns.
The rocker box cover was replaced, along with the spark plugs and the catalytic convertor.
However, the very next day the car was still chucking out smoke when started from cold.
This time the dealer said "it must be unburnt fumes and oil in the exhaust."
For the next few days I made a point of getting the engine really hot, but the problem still persisted.

The dealer has taken the car back in and now they think it may be an oil leak from a burst oil seal in the turbo.
They have been in discusssions with BMW and as yet the car is still with the dealer.

When I first tried to do this with my Apple iphone 5 it seemed to work.
However, it was disconnecting when I turned the engine off - I then had to reconnect every time.
Now I can't get it to pair up at all - I even tried another iphone 6.

Any suggestions?

Looks interesting but only gives a gain of 22PS - I was looking for more.

Did you tell your insurance company about the modification?

I have a 2017 118i F20 with the 1.5T LCI engine which develops 134 bhp in standard trim.
Superchips claim a 46 bhp increase with their engine re-map.
Has anyone tried this modification and would they recommend or otherwise?
