JB4 stage 2 on my 640i F13

Hey guys,

Did anyone install the jb4 on his 640i? Im currently facing an issue when installing the jb4 stage 2, the water pump keeps running when the vehicle is off.

Did anyone face the same issue? And under the settings tab on the jb4 interface, can I know which option did you use (the ISO or the F10/F13)?

The water pump issue is common for some folks with the JB4. Here's a thread about it along with a couple fixes: http://www.n54tech.com/forums/showth...ght=Water+pump

Use the F10/F30 settings, not the ISO. I confirmed this with Terry when I installed mine.

Looks amazing bro, terry told me to return the stock solenoid cable and it work, little less boost but its safe. Feels more powerful for me now. Any idea how much the kelleners tune cost?

The only fix for a lot of f10 and f13 owners is returing the solenoid cable to stock and it works perfectly + ypu can feel the extra gain power.

Im currently using the iso settings, ill change it to the f10/f30 settings tonight

Hmmm not cheap, make sure what fuel should be used before getting it. Most of them need 93 octane (usa) which is 97 octane here for us in the gulf. And make sure to get a charge pipe, the factory charge pipe will not handle the extra boost and im sure itll break. There are no charge pipes for the f13 available now but ER will release it by next week
