I had issues with the taller tires but im running stock sizes now to keep the traction system happy.
My car wont shift at all on its own in m mode,it will bounce off the rev limiter.im going to the dealer tom and telling them to flash my tcu to latest firmware.

That should sort it out, my guess is it may take couple 100 mi to adapt

His set up was 245/40/18 and 265/40/18 so only a 2.4 % difference

Just throwing an idea into the pot... but could maybe be a function of SBC stepping in sensing the front wheels aren't moving after a few seconds, then braking the rear wheels for some reason? Those that have successful burnouts longer than 2 seconds, are you staying completely still, or is it a slow roll like in the video cwmateiuc posted on pg1? Like someone said, i think there are multiple issues being discussed.

2003 E55 K1
I have an '03 and cannot do burnouts. Car loses traction and ESP pulls power. Even when rolling, except on hottest days, engine will pull power as ESP starts to flash. Very annoying. The strange thing is, before installing K1,car would spin tires nicely from the dig without bogging the engine. It seems like the increase in power from the K1 mod, which is up quite a bit, is causing ESP to pull power.
