We've got a good team here, thanks for the offers! Almost there...

Got some new wheels and loaded up the E40 tune! Hopefully soon I'll get some coilovers. (If anyone has some for sale lmk) Pardon it being dusty I have been out from a work incident and haven't washed it 😬

Did you just say that's a dirty car??!

Looks great! Love that colour in the sun.

They looks like my Alzor 030 but in a bronze color?

I agree with eljay, you should see my car....

Received the 034 street sport engine mounts and oil service kit. This weekend I'll be busy for a couple hours. Will be buying an engine support bar as well to assist with the lowering of the subframe since I've read everywhere that the passenger side is terrible to do. I recently did my e82 that is only rear wheel drive and it wasn't fun so I can't imagine xDrive making it any better of a job to do.

It doesn’t look dirty but it’s definitely dusty lol! They are AG m359, powder coated in a metallic bronze!

Worked on my 2011 328xi today. Been chasing a steering issue. I replaced the original PS pump at 140k and unfortunately went with a Lares pump from Rock Auto. Made some noise from day one and leaked fluid from the pressure hose fitting. After a year or so I replaced it via warranty and that one basically did the same thing. So I went to eBay and found a clean low miles BMW PS pump from California ($45). I also bought a new lower steering shaft and high pressure line. To my surprise the shafts lower ujoint was locked up tight. And only moved in one direction (explains the heavy steering feel and lack of centering). Anyway got it all in, steering is silent and works as it should. No leaks and drives nice. Hopefully good for a while!

If you live in a salt, snow area definitely check the lower steering shaft. FCP has a good video explaining how to get it out and once I watched it,the job was fairly easy. Couldn't believe how bad the ujoints is.

Did the first oil change on the E90. It needs motor mounts badly.

I am entertaining the idea of trading it for a e46 vert though.
