Did an oil change with Castrol 0W-40--the level indicator on the side of the jug sucks! Couldn't see anything so had to pour it out the second jug to measure the exact 7 qts that the car needs. Plus, I think the previous owner stripped the threads on the oil pain. Is it true that the plug's threads is designed to give before the pan's?

Been there, done that. Pretty easy job once you realized you have to pull on the hoses with all your might even after they are unlocked.

Re-balanced/rotated tires, new alignment, and had Bilstein B4 struts put in up front to replace the trashed originals. Car feels amazing!
Gotta tackle the infamous lazy eye driver's headlight tomorrow. Seems the servo motor disconnected and needs to be reattached for the headlight to aim up as it should. Good news is that I can do it without removing the bumper, so that'll save some time and headache.

Oil pan and valve cover gaskets replaced under CPO warranty. Very happy that these issues are now taken care of. The car is now an even better value!

Were you ever able to fit a larger air duct for the intake? I've done something similar on other cars but an additional duct would make airbox removal a pain... |

Clean and oil my filters. Receive my M5 endlinks from Germany, the wait was worth it.

Picked up a set of 284 wheels with new Continental RFTs for cheap. The catch was that they were (poorly) Plastidipped white. Spent more time than I care to admit cleaning them but here they are!
