A ZHP was what I was looking for before I got the E90. Just going back to that now.

SLCGoonski · 03-23-2009, 10:20 PM

That is a great looking car Parker. White just like you wanted. Looks to be in perfect shape! (cept for the little ding above the fender)

Found a way to retrofit factory Nav for cheaper than an aftermarket unit. Even got a technician from work excited to install it (not really sure how I pulled that off)

Go back start to put my Utah plate back on and see a white durango pull up. SHIT. UTA police comes up says I look suspicious, and asks whats with the plate. I show her the Euro and the camera. Runs my plate, and tells me to step away from the car. Says she needs my license and stuff. Runs my license. Trys to shoot the breeze with me while the stuff is coming back from my plate and license. stupid cops always ruining my fun

damn cops, why can't they just let people be. it's always when you aren't doing shit they stop and when people are driving like complete assholes or drunk and you call it in you get no response. WTF!

We came through the pass on highway 6 this afternoon...snowing like crazy and upper 20s. My wife nearly strangled me for taking the BMW and keeping the summer tires on.

Oh, and hit limp mode like 10 times yesterday and today. Always happened while going up-hill, cruise control on, about 80 mph. The boost gauge would show 0.5-1 psi for about 5-10 seconds, then limp. If I kept it off cruise, and coasted below boost, and then more gas and got it up to 4-5 psi, it didn't limp. Weird. Got really good at shutting it down at 80 and restarting.

PS - there is no power at all in limp mode...at least not climbing through the mountains.

i can see it now Jo yelling at you for taking the BMW. Lindsay would do the same thing. Limp mode...wtf? Get that checked. Moar BOOST.

Turn the car off, turn it back on. That's it. It still runs fine...just no boost.

oh snap, he went there.

SLCGoonski · 03-24-2009, 08:46 AM

Parker, I'd like to get those codes read, but know I need to pull the procede first. Hope my warrenty isn't in jeopardy. How long would those limp faults be in there?

Only a couple days. But I recommend against just bringing it straight in. If there are a ton of limp faults, and we cant produce it... Thats when things go awry.
