People usually do a 3rd gear log from 3000 to 6000+ rpm. Will say there is a big timing correction of -6 in your log. Could be the low fuel octane.

Swapped out the alternator voltage regulator :/ not very hard and heck of a lot easier than changing the alternator (thankfully that didn't go bad)

Installed the Bavsound Stage 1 speaker upgrade for base stereo as well as the ghost subwoofers under the front seats. Very easy install and the sound quality is much improved.

I've not been able to definitively nail down the exact part number(s) for the phone cradle for an iPhone6. Could you share what you installed?

I'm doing this next Saturday. I had my subframe down for my turbo replacement and didnt have the OPG on hand. It SUCKS doing it on jack stands. It sucks even more on XI.

That sucks having to drop the subframe again. It's certainly not desirable on jack stands, but it's not to difficult.. Just time consuming with XI. I bought the car with an oil leak. Seems to be either oil pan or rear main so I'm hoping for the best.

At least you've already been in there so should go much quicker second time around, best of luck!

Curious what engine support bar are you using.

New Water Pump and Thermostat


Original Water pump finally started to fail @ 175000 mls, currently at 175312 mls

Car was sitting in the garage for about a week, waiting on the parts to come in from California -> Massachusetts.

Would like to thank my father for helping me with the repair.

Glad to have her back on the road again

Happy to join E90post after my E46 328i was unfortunately totaled in an accident. Purchased an E90 335xi and figured I should hang out here now.

Wife's F30 335i got the snow tires mounted.

My E90 335i got a new upgraded battery, then programmed, registered and lots of other goodies coded in while i was at it.
