It does not have the M-Button.



The goal with Sky is to restore her to a concours-level finish.

I need a shop that understands this, and is willing to keep attention-to-detail at the forefront. Every area of this car must not be overlooked. While I was happy with RMP Motors and would happily refer people there, I needed something more.

After an issue with my car came up with some serious vibration in the drivetrain, the car was mis-diagnosed as “It’s just the solid engine and transmission mounts.” I respectfully disagreed because the car was not making such vibrations after Rocco@RMP changed out the rod bearings and did the solid mounts…this was a newer development.

A good friend of mine Mo, who owns Alpha Motorsports, made a special referral to Usic@TotalMotorWerkes (TMW), who DOES NOT take on new clients. Mo put in a very good word for Usic to consider me as a client, and I was happily welcomed under such special consideration.

Usic does highly specialized work on BMWs, focusing on full-blown restorations like BMW 2002s, race-car prep, and has a passion for “Working from the heart.”

I had Usic do a full inspection of the car with a goal to find as many issues with the drivetrain as possible, here’s what he found:




Looks like I will need to address both the driveshaft and the differential…pricey pricey.

I’m glad to have the support of Total Motor Werkes. Be sure to follow them on Instagram to see the incredible work that this team of 2 does:

Stay tuned for next update:
