    Wheel spin?

    I believe the ix has more power to rear wheels but enough to slightly spin when starting from a dead start in dry? Or bad TC

    If the TC is bad it would spin the front wheels when doing a hard launch.
    E30 325ix M50 turbo 7 spd DCT 4wd 840awhp @ 31 psi.
    E30 M50 6 spd 764whp @ 24psi.
    E30 M20 6 spd 675whp.

      How hard a start? Mine will spin 3 of 4 even with a blown TC VC...


      ...but that requires dumping the clutch off the limiter.

      My experience is that each rear tire and one of the fronts leaves a black mark.

        A viscous coupler never locks immediately. You're always going to get a little bit of difference between each side, that's just how it works.

        I've never left black lines down on pavement, but I do run really sticky tires. I'll leave plenty of brown lines on dirt/grass in the rallyx car though.

          Very few iX's can leave black stripes... Any black mark I leave might be 8" long; just evidence that the tire rolled over once as the car was starting to move.
