Overview

xDelete offers not only the possibility, to turn your xDrive ON or OFF, but also lets you customize its behaviourbehavior. The settings available are ON, OFF, Sport, Snow and Custom, which lets you dial-in the power transferred to the front by yourself. Please note, that the xDrive AWD System is mainly a clutch, that can be gradually opened and closed to regulate the max. maximum torque towards the front wheels. It is not an active differential, like found in off-road vehicles. That means the maximum power split between the axles is 50/50 Front/Rear, while the minimum is 0/100 Front/Rear. It is technically impossible not possible to send more than 50% of the power to the front wheels with this system. The Stability System (DSC) and the Transfer-Case unit (VGSG) coordinate to set the max. torque which is transmitted to the front wheels, depending on the driving situation. The main inputs are:

  • Output Torque from the Transmission (or Engine)

...

  • Steering Wheel Angle

...

  • ABS operation

Info

Do NOT attempt to test this yourself, using your bare hands. We tested it already for you. A moving wheel has a lot of inertia, you can still hurt yourself badly.

Tip

This is the only recommended configuration to use staggered wheels with. For more info, look at our FAQ, regarding running staggered setups or running the car on a dyno.
