Problems with engine temperature and Sport+ mode activation in BMW 3

Hi all, I have a 2017 BMW 3 Series with 160,000 km and I'm experiencing a problem: the engine takes much longer to reach operating temperature. Has anyone had a similar experience or know what could be the cause? Also, I would like to know how to activate the Sport+ mode via coding with Carly. thanks in advance for your help!

Hello, My 2009 BMW E93 Cabrio is reporting a glow plug error on cylinder 2. However, it still starts well. Do I have to replace all the glow plugs or is just the one on cylinder 2 sufficient? Thanks and regards Mike

It's generally recommended to replace all glow plugs at the same time, as they tend to wear out at a similar rate. However, if you're looking to save on costs and the others are functioning well, you can replace just the faulty one. Keep in mind that if one has failed, others might follow soon. After replacement, monitor the engine's performance and check for any further error codes. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
