Today I retrofitted front PDC. I am probably 10 hours into this retrofit

AttilaDJ · 05-16-2019, 08:13 PM

Did my first oil change since I've got her. 👌🏽Engine was filthy and I wiped it down as much as possible, but I will be doing a full detail on it shortly. [IMG][/IMG]

OTO335i · 05-16-2019, 09:40 PM

Pulled my water pump out and i can confirm that the housing has a crack in it. Only a year and 5 months old with 25,000 km's on it. Took me am hour to pull it out. Now i just need to find out if it's covered under warranty from the parts store i bought it from..

Can you provide the name of the seller who sold you the wheel wrap? I need one for my track car and a verified seller would be nice to find.

My 328i will stay in the family, now to takle some issues before going M-Tech...

I often come to the same conclusion...it's hard to find the kind of driving experience for anywhere near the same price range...

Exactly. What's your payment going to be on a new car? I don't fun enough can break to make up that cost.

Installed VRSF 7.5 Stepped FMIC, Gloss M4 kidney grills, wrapped my mirrors with gloss carbon fiber wrap. Oil change at the end of it all.

Isn't it cheaper online than a parts store?

Rip your bumper off, using a step drill bit drill some holes using the pre marked locations. Then stick on the pdc mounts. Make sure the two middle sensors plugs are facing up to clear the crash bar. Run the harness up the engine bay to the dme box area. Take the water drain out and jab the grommet with a lubed coat hanger to get the harness through the firewall. Then run the harness back to the pdc module. Pin the connector on and code.

Yes it is. I needed it right away when I purchased it but now i can actually waot so if it's bot covered I'll buy online.

Decided to do a chrome delete last night on my kidney grills. Took longer than expected and had to drive to work like this today.

gamesfrager · 05-17-2019, 04:57 PM

Pretty impressive!

After watching your video, youtube suggested I watch a video of detailing a lambo

ny325 · 05-17-2019, 10:59 PM

Looks good

ny325 · 05-17-2019, 11:01 PM

Washed and waxed, then a unexpected shower came along. Had to go out and wipe it down.

ki_soarer · 05-18-2019, 12:50 AM

Replaced my 11 month old left rear BMW Performance strut. Not sure if it was the added weight of a diesel or what but hopefully it doesn’t blow again.

Seller is mooventateven. Takes a while to ship from a China and it’s time consuming to instal but for $26 I love it.

karolis350 · 05-18-2019, 12:27 PM

treated it for cheeky full blown detailing, they did such good job, paintwork looks brand spanking new.
