Thanks for the video. I have never noticed the red line at 6200 rpm and then the second redline at 8400. I thought that it was just wide open to 8400 rpm. Is there a recommendation to keep the car under 6200 rpm?

And the yellow line is dynamic as seen when the engine starts up, meaning that it will move and recede back up to 8.4k as the engine warms up to the proper temperature. The e46 M3 had a similar feature only it was illuminated (lights would go out increasing the redline as the engine warmed up) where as the e92 redline is a radial mechanical function.

Does the redline look like it is less than 8400 to anyone? I have been noticing this for some time on the dial. It almost looks in the exact same place as the M5/M6. The line just doesn't look like it is at 8400. Too far away from the 8500 mark.

Is the first red line at 6200rpm anything to do with the run-in period because I see the orange starts at the 5500rpm that you are meant to stick to for the first 1500miles.
South what do you think? |

Yeah, that is definately halfway between 8000 and 8500. Why increase the redline and be cheap about it and use the same part as on the M5/6. Total crap. I can't believe BMW is being so second-rate about things.
