If you have a laptop, you can connect it via jb4 interface and male sure steering wheel controls are enabled in one of the menus

Are you positive all the connectors are in right? When you start the car initially, does everything idle fine? No codes?

Is this a used JB4 or a new one from BMS?

If new, disregard, but i would recommend updating firmware in the JB4.

Hey guys
I am going to button willow to track for the first time this sat and need to get my brake pads changed. BMW torqued two lugs on my rear wheels too tight and I don't have an impact wrench. I wanted to change the pads myself but am tempted to just bring it in to a shop. Does anyone have a good recommendation for a good shop that will be able to change them for me by Friday for a good price? Thanks in advance!

I would like some of your go fast mods, did you need a shop to install/uninstall the fmic and dp? Are they smog legal? Probably not but that's what always stops me from buying big mods that and I'd probably get shit from my wife but Christmas is around the corner!

Fmic has no bearing on smog. I can get you an installer

Dp, youd have to research more i dunno, especially with the new law

Procede and dci you shouldnt have issues either

I can sell you the grilles if you want, i got my stocks

This is what I installed on my 07 335i

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-E90-E91-...item3373a794ce

I installed myself. This changed the dull yellow to a low powered white color. Middle of the day in the sun they aren't that visible from far.

Never had any problems with these and I also did the daytime running angel eyes kit so these are pretty much on all the time.

Best thing to do in my opinion is dont go back to them. Purchase some thru a forum vendor. Better customer service and most should be warrantied.
