Alpina, I have already shipped two tools to the UK. The price is just $45 instead of $35....around Â£28 I believe...

Alright,

Thats it list is full. I will start a new list for any other interested people. I have done a slight redesign and plan on ordering some more Monday. I am heading out to a M Meet here in Houston tommorow and hope to generate enough interest to order another fifty.

Although I think theres enoug interest trickling through here to justify the 50as I will probably sell them all over time.

The next batch will be black satin anodized too

Nice color choice! i have 6k more miles before doing a spark plug change so this should be perfect

tmntmn · 12-14-2012, 05:23 PM

any know the torque spec on the plugs?

You made the list for the original batch...so yours will be standard aluminum.

Torque spec on the plugs is 28-30 N/m I believe.

e92zero · 12-14-2012, 10:26 PM

I think the torque spec is 23 Nm based on the BMW tool (page 2) and the service documents.
