What did you do to your car today?

N54Twin · 08-23-2016, 06:54 PM

Got this baby's from ecs.

m3whip · 08-23-2016, 06:55 PM

Dialed in

ny325 · 08-23-2016, 10:16 PM

Washed and waxed. Also noticed acorns starting to fall off the tree that's in front of my house. Hopefully those little bastards don't hit my car.

John 070 · 08-24-2016, 07:16 AM

built a kid's wagon, wife put the box behind my car and I was getting tired of moving it out of the way each time I back out, and pull in. Also, I took the 4 tpms sensors I just got UPS (they appear to be correct I checked the Huf website) and put them in the basement. The day before the long weekend, I'm getting the new PSSs mounted/balanced by an indie, and will replace the sensors as they're coming up on 10 yrs now (wonder how long they really last, they're still fine)....

F22_Raptor · 08-25-2016, 08:34 AM

So I discovered a new noise today. It's a sort of squealing noise that comes on with the a/c. I suspect it's because of a rusty HVAC blower and I pray it's not some sort of compressor/pulley issue.

Greyfox · 08-25-2016, 10:57 AM

Well yesterday ordered a set of Bilstein B6 shocks for the rear of my wagon. They will get installed when I replace the bushings.

Pixel8ed · 08-25-2016, 12:06 PM

Does this count?

Think I'm going to replace the bumper cover with an aftermarket M3 style one.

08njSTEP · 08-25-2016, 08:59 PM

Replaced angel eye LED with stock. No more bulb out indicators on start. Lights work and look very good. Triangle on IP went out. And now my LED fogs don't set a code. WIN!! Also replaced rear roundell.

CantCatchMe · 08-26-2016, 10:06 AM

Getting all four tires patched up from nails. The reason I think this happened is my #FUCKISIS sticker finally was seen by them. My death was a devious plan for me to crash on the highway I assume😈hahah.

overdrivex · 08-26-2016, 12:19 PM

Got the new tires installed...definitely needs a drop and spacers. Gonna do that after the muffler delete and after I get some other goodies for my Miata .

N54Twin · 08-26-2016, 01:10 PM

Just took her out for a ride yesterday to celebrate my 27th birthday.

John 070 · 08-26-2016, 01:12 PM

I've been obsessed with my washer jets lately, and whether they are blasting the glass with the proper pressure, so I washed my glass again a few times. Doesn't anybody make strips that can detect algae, like if the tank/filter has algae, the strip turns yellow?

Dr.325i · 08-27-2016, 09:12 AM

Tinted my rear light lci style
What do you guys think?

Looks good, candy red like, and not too dark.

Soles330i · 08-28-2016, 12:21 AM

got coded today / detailed and in the process of ordering some vinyl for my tail lights...

slowly but surely, my car is getting to where i want it to be.

BSM n54iS · 08-28-2016, 12:23 AM

Left it covered in my garage with the battery charger hooked up... for another day. Hope I come home soon and drive it like I stole it from her home

The Nightman · 08-28-2016, 01:47 AM

Removed the alignment pins to increase negative camber. Maxed out at approximately -0.5 and -0.4 on the right and left respectively on stock non-sport suspension.

The pins were easy to remove - just break them off from the side with a hammer and chisel and drill out the remainder with a 1/4" drill bit.

Footdeep_milelong · 08-28-2016, 02:41 AM

Swapped out puddle lights with some Philips LEDs

ken1137 · 08-28-2016, 10:11 AM

Stared at her this morning wondering if I should order a 340 or M2 ??

SilverStreak18 · 08-28-2016, 07:36 PM

Helped a buddy do the following to his 09 335i;

-oil change (castrol 0W-30)
-spark plugs
-walnut blast
-tighten all hose clamps
-bms cowl filters

He was at 85k and never had an intake cleaning. The valves were caked with grime and now they're nice and clean.

Just following up to say that the added negative camber has really helped with cornering. Turn in feels sharper and there seems to be less lean. Now I'm second guessing the need for a larger front sway bar...

Wish I had measured the camber beforehand but I guess I was around 0 seeing how I ended up around -0.4-0.5.

Highly recommended if you haven't done this already. I don't think it's enough to mess with tire wear; even then the improvement is worth it.
