Sweet, beige leather interior on navy blue is far from the worst combo on big BMWs. Are those Thule Aerobars and were they included?

Seminal Flu posted:Yeah, they were held on with strap feet, also Thule, I guess they're good? (Edit: I just looked them up, retails for $400 for the bars and feet... not bad. Maybe I'll get $200 out of them and be into the car for $3800.) They're pretty good but a bit expensive... nice if you buy into the system with the t-slots and all that, for bike racks etc. Don't forget that they're modular so the bars can be used with different feet etc.

IMHO you need to get yourself Carly for BMW and a dongle and get some more BMW-specific info out of that car.

Yeah, my E87 (shorter wheelbase, I realize, but still) you can jack up one jacking point and the car will basically lift that side. I'm not proud but I have done a wheel change that way.

I think it allows them to manufacture to looser tolerances and then just compensate in software, but yeah, means recoding. It is my understanding that one doesn't have to replace all of them at once, but it could be.BloodBag posted:BMW.txt Ayup.

If is anything like the N43 it’s the oil filter housing which also has an oil/coolant heat exchanger because BMW.

Investigating further, it doesn't seem like you have the heat exchanger: Still a way over-engineered design though. Speaking of N54s, turns out you can get it in a 3-series touring with a manual. In Karmesinrot.

When I bought my E87LCI it had only ever been dealer serviced. Cue a bolt missing from the cowling and two from the center underbody tray. Also, they sold the PO a liter of Castrol as a spare (so just a normal 1L plastic bottle of Castrol oil) for the same price as the charged for the oil for the oil changes: ~$40/liter. Like Oglaf says, it’s a good thing rich people have lots of money, they wouldn’t make it in the real world.

I wonder if the DSC stuff could be coded to be permanently off - the start/stop in mine certainly can.

I’m guessing this is the insignia, is there a similar drivetrain offering in Europe?

Wow, that's quite the score... Do you buy chains by the dozen with that thing?

My ghetto rear end just wanted to place an order with supermagnete.de and then use them to hold the headliner in place, and never do anything about it again...

Please start a thread on it, I want to see. I built a deck by myself a couple of years ago, and that also took for loving ever. And amen to the sucks-to-be-working-single-handedly. I used to moonlight for a dude who renovated his entire house, and it was blatantly obvious that being two people is way more than twice as efficient as being one.
