Dropped it off at the dealer for a number of tasks:
- oil change
- brake fluid change
- diff oil change (due to NVH)
- software update
- repair tail light
- check for play on drive train (due to NVH)
- replace rusted brake bad clamps

My warranty will run out in 2 weeks, so I want everything looked at .

Not a dam thing. Drove the Tahoe instead. The M is still stored in the garage for the winter. The northeast is still experiencing late winter. This morning temp was 27 degrees F. From time to time I have gone into the garage with a bottle of red, taken off the cover, started her up, move her around, listened to the radio and almost made love in it with my wife (but it was too cold). 45o miles driven since I picked her up 12/22/2012, not much driving done.

Man I can't wait for warmer weather!

On the way to the train station, decided to take the next train so I could drive around another 15 minutes. So worth it!

Ordered PSSs for my summer set - 275 rear, 255 front. Will be on in time for a driving weekend in the Arkansas hill country!

$70 back if you buy 4 Michelin tires before the 15th, FYI.

If your AC has seemed weak at all, have them check for leaks. I caught this on mine right at the end of my warranty - would have cost me a few thousand.

I just bought this:

http://www.p3cars.com/bmw-3-series/p...tal-interface/

Can't wait to get it... Going to install that, the cameras, and the ethernet wiring at the same time.

Oh, and yesterday I installed the Euro Spec CIC buttons

Will do a full write up when everything gets torn apart. First it goes to the dealer to get the pesky vanos check valves replaced.

Great stuff ... thanks for sharing with us ... cannot wait for the final install and write up of your first hand feelings about it

PS. Put all them parts in a safe place during disassembly so that reassembly can be done without delay

My new summer wheels fitted ... love them

Went to John's house today and fitted my new summer wheels, the fit is perfect and I love the way they look on this AW car ... This be a teaser until they come back from balancing. My 220m OEM wheels will now become my winter wheels ... enjoy the teaser below I will make a nice photo shoot once the wheels return from balancing and I completed detailing my toy for the summer that surely must be just around the corner

Wheels;

VIP Modular VRS-13 20 x 9.5, 20 x 11 - Stepped Lip, 3 pc. forged center, patented spun barrel, made 100% in the USA
Machined/clear center with polished accents, painted barrel
These wheels have simply amazing workmanship, they are like art, with a very aggressive dish and center appearance on the car.

Tires;

Yokohama Advan Sport, approx. 70% tread remaining
255/30/20, 305/25/20
