Two different tachs?

aakrusen · 01-19-2011, 05:46 PM

Why is the redline different in these three pics? They're all from a 2008 M3 sedan and the last two are from the same car.

The redline is the same on all three pics. The rotating bezel rotates clockwise as the car warms up. Look at the oil temp gauge in each of the pics as it relates to the redline shifting.

the first one is a non-ZCP, the third is the ZCP with the power button activated

As silly as this question sounds, I wondered the same thing the first time I saw multiple photos of the M3's tach.

aajami · 01-19-2011, 09:10 PM

The tach in the E46 M3 was the same way, no?

I can because I don't own an M3 and after seeing those pics I thought this was the best place to ask the question.

kaykay · 01-19-2011, 10:56 PM

Nothing wrong with asking questions OP, sometimes the dumbest question is not asking one.

another thread that I think is a joke - do the dealers not tell you what you bought?

OC3 · 01-19-2011, 11:47 PM

^Not on the 2 M3's I bought/have

Is a very good question... But other people answered it...
But the better question is why do you have "triangle with a ! in the middle"???
