Kicked my Carly adapter... Broke my OBDII plug... Grumble...

Bad language was used. Part number was searched for and found. Just need to call the dealer to see if they stock it...

At least it is a cheap plastic part.

Grumble grumble.

It looks like it is just part 5 from this info.

Pins are not terrible to remove if it is like other connectors I have dealt with. Looking online seems to confirm this.

The part is in stock in Vancouver so I should have it pretty quick. It still works fine for OBDII operations. But, alas, I have OCD and need to fix it.

On the bright side, it happened on the same day I bought 3 great growlers of beer from 3 separate breweries here. Hoyne, Driftwood and Sooke. So, I was able to drown my sorrows a wee little bit.

Cheers,

XKxRome0ox · 05-15-2019, 02:03 PM

did someone break the forums during the site maintenance?
i had some subscribed threads disappear (including this one)
and i no longer see all the subscribed forums at once ...
now it seems like i need to log into each different forum (like from e90 to f30) to see the subscribed forums

330ciprem · 05-15-2019, 04:53 PM

Drove to work.

ItsGary · 05-15-2019, 04:55 PM

It was freaking out on me the last few days after the maintenance too. Kept logging me out. Wouldn't let me post anywhere. Seems okay today, though.

ItsGary · 05-15-2019, 05:06 PM

Going to clean my interior

SoCalRPM · 05-15-2019, 05:06 PM

Today I hit 62,000 which means it was time for a 2,500 mile check up/oil change after rod bearing replacement. Everything looked good. Thanks to Malek@MRF for great service as always. Obligatory photos to follow.

XKxRome0ox · 05-15-2019, 05:56 PM

that 1st photo of the car in the "alleyway" is awesome with the color contrasting so hard

ItsGary · 05-15-2019, 06:11 PM

Took me almost an hour to clean and recondition the leather. Surprised my battery lasted that long with the ignition on haa
