What have you done with or to your M3 today?

So you went from previously having 10 clicks to now at 15? Is there too much body roll? The grip is great I bet

It is strange, but I didn't feel much body roll. It was tight overall. I only drove 30 miles and took 1 onramp and 1 offramp under power. Acceleration over bumpy roads in a turn was pretty damn hooked up vs. EDC in all modes.

Had to make a run at 1am. Decided to make a round on some of the urban sprawl freeways in the area on the way back. Why not. Took her all the way in second gear on a couple onramps. Let that induction sing. Looking forward to the warm weather...

thanks again for sharing that ebay link

Hahaha! Way better than what that other guy was selling it for. $500 for the same lights lol. Ignored my PM asking for the difference

I've had tons of new parts laying around all winter and I have been too lazy about installing them. Finally started working on the car yesterday for a few hours.

First project is to swap out my existing coils with some KW Clubsports and install solid monoball LCA mounts. Finished the front last night, the rear is going to be a lot more work since I am also replacing the diff/subframe bushings. Also need to install the new Slon DCT lower/side pans.

Attempted to salvage this 10 year old rear sill plate before it broke off. It solid as ever but ugly. The rubber was so dry the expoxy couldnt close the gap. New part on order, can't say I didn't try

[Grip Addict]

Drove it to the office, post office, UPS, then back home.

My winter beater was covered in snow this morning and I took the easy way out. Found my M3 ready in the garage. A good start on the day and I think the good old E92 M3 is still looking sleek.

Great looking car! It would kill me to drive my car on roads that get salt. Thankfully no snow in my neck of the woods!

20 clicks from full hard on Ohlins R&T is really luxurious.

Flashed a different Stage 2 ECU file I had and gave the car to my stepbrother for the weekend since his E46 330Ci is in the shop again for another Rad leak 2 weeks after getting it replaced lol.

Got any videos of the donuts we all know you did in that pristine parking lot?

Finally got my car from the body shop

[eswaroop]

Decided to swap out my existing set of injectors wirh 54k miles on them for a new set of stock bosch injectors - and the result is great - car runs smoother - much better low end torque, better efficiency - less fuel smell inside the car ( used to smell fumes)


Highly recommend swapping them out or at least getting them cleaned thoroughly


How do I attach a picture?

Have any tips or pointers for this? I am planning to do the same thing in the spring for my M3.

Switching out my battery today, wish me luck 😆

Did mine recently; very easy, but a PITA. YouTube has some videos, which are very helpful. Also, it helps to have a scan tool available to reset some of the functions. In my case, my A/C was not functioning correctly, but it eventually reset itself. Also, my windows were not dropping when opening and closing the doors, but my scan tool easily corrected that. Good luck.

Ty, I was thinking that having the car on a trickle charger may avoid all of those issues apart from reg?

Did mine without a charger and didn’t have anything wrong afterward. Make sure you have extensions on hand to reach the tie down

I didn't have one, so perhaps you are right. Another, is to take out the battery long end, because it will be a bitch to try to take it out flat. Also, search under the holes of the battery tray; you may find a few extra fasteners.

Sorry I've been away from this thread.
Lots of stuff done on the M3 throughout the winter. The winter storms here in Toronto took a beating on the car, undertray was murdered in the process.

Before:


After:
