I recently moved to California and boy, do they have a strange thing going on here with plates. When you buy a car new, or a used car without plates, you don't have to have a plate on there so long as you keep your registration taped to your windshield... so people never seem to plate a plate on at all! The police really don't seem to care.

Waiting on my vanity plates to come in 8-12 weeks though, then I'll hang M plate up in my office or something.

Got the car back from the dealer, got the airbag and ac wiring harness recalls done.

Drive around in Oakland and San Francisco and the police will show you how much they care haha

Adam's Eco, or APC of pref. Engine bay mildly warmed - not hot. Various brushes, and rinse with light pressure. Air blower to remove any stagnant water drops. Start up car, and let run for couple minutes. Walla !

FMLYSDN · 08-14-2018, 08:48 AM

Just gas

Timujin · 08-14-2018, 08:55 AM

Fixed CC-ID 231 error by having FRM3 flashed. Added 3/4 can of straight r134a (no sealer) to get A/C blowing icy just in time for cooler outdoor temps.

vincE92M3 · 08-14-2018, 10:12 AM

Great shot FMLYSDN

Is this the new 6MT?

Banana Hammock · 08-14-2018, 10:22 AM

Why would you do that?

Ordered rod bearing parts and a Dinan underdrive pulley. Let the games begin!

PAM3Guy · 08-14-2018, 01:02 PM

Ordered some brake fluid and some ST Sport pads for my first HPDE in late Sept.
Oh, and a QuickJack :-)

Weatherford BMW at Berkeley

///mawana · 08-14-2018, 04:09 PM

Installed test pipes over the weekend. While the car is more responsive, the smell on the other hand may force me to go back. Certainly needs to get used to how she smells now.

Lol

I wish. But no. I decided to pass. I took a fair bit of time to ponder it. At the end of the day I didn't want to be stuck with 3 E9X's. Heaven forbid hey! The car was lower spec then mine but I couldn't pull the trigger.

I did however refer one of our forum members to it and he is now the proud owner. Hope to get the two together for a photo shoot. He even bout my old black ZCPs!

Did you just call and set it up? I need to do this. Don't we have a battery cable recall too? #newcarshit

Otherwise stock x-pipe with secondary cats intact? I lust over the gains from test pipes but the sound and smell sure have me skeptical. Thanks for your honesty.

I didn't call, I emailed them and they responded to me quickly. My friend on the other end had no luck with either calls or emails. He ended up taking his car for the airbag to BMW SF. BMW only had two recalls for my car.

wyatth · 08-14-2018, 06:51 PM

Thanks. I just emailed BMW Concord where I had the airbag recall done on my previous E46M. I'll try Weatherford next if no luck.

ItsGary · 08-14-2018, 09:40 PM

Absolutely nothing. I haven't gone downstairs in a few days. Tho I think I need a wash and an oil change.

Transfer · 08-14-2018, 09:59 PM

Spanked her good leaving downtown this evening like I know she likes. Redline shifts in the city always sound the best.

Fresh pinion seal for the win!!!!
