SMG dash display
 
I have noticed some CSL's have 'N' for neutral, mine has '0'.

Why is this?

I believe early CSLs have the '0' and the later CSLs have the 'N'.
The second pic shows Dan's dash display which is the same as mine and I believe our cars are only a couple of digits apart on the chassis number :thumbs:

The second is my Dash as Matt knows, our cars are actually very close together, both quite early cars :)

Its the smg software if I'm correct
N latest 0 older.

Simpsons map the older software in as it's better gearchange etc

I'm sure the softer n software is a damage limitation thing by BMW

I think the 'N/0' read out remains regardless of software upgrades mate. I'm pretty sure Dazza had an update at some point during his ownership prior to selling her on to you but i always remember his car reading '0' as an early build car.

Correct, don't think the earlier dashes even have the diagonal elements needed to make an N.

My car says 0 and it had a new SMG ECU under warrenty a few years later to fix the slurring and remained showing 0.

Bealos was the 0 and mine is N:thumbs:

Mine is early build with 0 as well. I've also had earlier SMG software on mine for 4 years. I noticed a significant change for the better when it was changed.

What was the difference Alex?
Is it worth asking for the upgrade / downgrade??
