Launch control issues
Ever since I got my e63s tuned, Ive had launch control issues, the car launches, then bogs down and launches again, even when I put back in stock, the same issue happens, anyone have these issues before?

I would be careful doing that, especially with aftermarket ecu config. That's how I lost transmission #1...was on drag strip, so sticky, and tires were with lower pressure for grip. Car launched, tires spun, grabbed, and traction/torque was too much for tranny. I'm not only one who this has happened to by the way. Not saying don't ever do it, just be careful, and prob not do it on track. #savethetransmisions&whales

Not all CPC and TCU's are created equally, and a customer should know exactly how much TQ he is releasing to the drivetrain, from stock. I know a few guys that have no idea, and there tuner removed all limits completely, allowing 100% of what the engine can make in TQ, be released into the drivetrain in every gear! Easy to guess, the drivetrain didnt last long.
OP, try a battery pull overnight, or trying lowering the LC RPM's and see if that helps.

That the problem I see, most guys just want power and be fast, and are not asking the important questions. Longevity, reliability, and consistency.
