    Help with launch control

    Hi all.

    I have a 2011 m3 and I would like to use the launch control but can't seem to get it to work. I was wondering if having a piggyback tune on it (chip) will effect it. I bought the car with the tune, exhaust and cold air. I am going to the track the day after tomorrow and really would like to use it. I was just wondering if the tune may be the issue.

    Thanks for your help.

    It's a DCM trans. There is a method to engage it but that's not it. But thanks.

    Well I figured it out on my own. (thanks any way).

    Seems that when you have a memory button set and you use that it won't allow you into launch mode regardless if the setting are correct for the launch mode or not. I turned on everything manually and did not use the preset memory button and it came on.
