BMW 3 Series F30

Car Audio:

For an expensive car, the audio system is very disappointing. The display and integration is excellent but the sound quality, and bass from the original speakers / underseat subwoofers is very poor. Even the factory upgraded sound system on some models leaves alot to be desired. The main problem with the newer BMW models is size and position of the speakers! The front and rear speakers are very small at only 100mm diameter and 40mm depth which is tiny compared to other german cars such as VW Golf ( 165mm front speaker ) and Audi A5 ( 200mm front speaker ). As the speaker position is so small we must put in really good speakers to compensate. We offer fantastic car audio upgrades for the F-SERIES models.

To save our customers money and to give them the best bang-per-Euro we offer 3 upgrade packages:

STAGE 1 Upgrade - €649 FITTED

STAGE 2 Upgrade - €1195 FITTED

STAGE 2.5 Upgrade - €1695 FITTED

This brilliant 4 channel amp from Audison will be mounted discreetly in the boot and will run the new front Audison Components and the BMW original subwoofers under the front seats. These original BMW subwoofers are actually decent quality but they are woefully under-powered by the BMW factory headunit. When you add the Audison amp to these subwoofers, it really brings the system alive and provides decent bass as well as Crystal clear mids and highs from the Audison components.

4. Audison pro amp cable and special no cut harness

This is a special harness that allows us to add an amplifier and run the speakers and subs without having to modify the cars existing wiring harness.

(Available for most BMW models 2006+ ask for details)

CLICK HERE FOR BMW G30 PROJECT

BELOW IS AN STAGE 3 JOB THAT WE COMPLETED ON A 2017 BMW G30 520D MSPORT

We did a very careful / Clean installation including using the latest Audison speakers which are exact replacement sizes and even have the BMW connections on them. The Audison subwoofers are also direct fit and again terminated with BMW connections so they simply plug in. But the most integrated part of the install was the range of Audison input and Output Harnesses we used to allow us to fit the Audison 8 channel amp without cutting or modifying again of the cars existing wiring. This is a huge PLUS for our customers as all wiring is left original and if required ( say upon car sale for example ) the full Audison system can be removed and the car's original speakers and subwoofers refitted and the car returned to its original condition without cutting wiring!

The installation took us nearly 15 hours but was completed carefully and to a very high standard. None of the panel trims were marked or none of the fragile trims clips were damaged or broken. Clean neat installation takes time but the results are stunning.

When the installation was finished we calibrated and set up the system using the latest Audison installer software. The system now has real power and presence and the mix of the upgraded speakers / subwoofers and the added power of the Audison amp really works!

None of the Audison system is visual anywhere in the cabin and the only sign that anything has been upgraded is the hugely improved Acoustic performance and the 8 channel amp mounted high on the boot side panel.

Exhaust Upgrades:

We offer several exhaust upgrades for the BMW F30. We offer both performance enhancing and cosmetic only upgrades. There are two main types of rear bumpers , the M-sport style and the SE style , depending on which model your car is there are different options.

PERFORMANCE EXHAUST UPGRADES

On the BMW 3 SERIES F30 diesel models we can make a larger bore exhaust system , remove the cat and the DPF unit , all of these will help make the exhaust more free flowing which in turn increases the power output of the car. If you increase the exhaust and remove the cat / DPF the power gains can be very dramatic after the car has been properly mapped.

Our Price for a professional DPF / Cat removal pipe manufactured and fitted to you F30 320d is about € 499. This job takes 1 day to complete.

*** Please note - you will have to get the car remapped immediately after we remove DPF to turn of DPF function in ECU as car will not drive properly when DPF removed until professionally remapped. We do not offer the ECU Remap service but most Dyno / ECU Tuners do ***

Left is a picture showing a BMW DPF unit on the left and a replacement pipe with a new flexi on the right side.
