Car wash

ItsGary · 06-22-2018, 03:17 PM

Did an oil change with Motul X-Power 10W60

$112CAD for 10L and Oil filter kit

Solo_M_Tech · 06-22-2018, 07:23 PM

Woke up to go to work and this happened.... 126K miles was as far as my original TA's were gonna last.
.... luckily I already had spares! I went ahead and replaced both after seeing the gear wear on bank 2.

GotV8? · 06-23-2018, 12:25 PM

Okay, just got done adding some custom buttons. It’s growing on me.😎

pcohen15 · 06-23-2018, 05:03 PM

washed, detailed, and then installed my new Uniden R3 using a BlendMount (with which I could not be happier) and MirrorTaps for power.

PACarGuy · 06-23-2018, 05:11 PM

Installed my new BMW CF High Kick spoiler and re-coded my fuel warning to 1/8 tank via Carly.

vincE92M3 · 06-23-2018, 08:00 PM

Which jack stands are those? They look sturdy. Something I need to worry about now that I have to use jack stands...

I miss my lift and big garage.

They are Esco stands. Built like tanks. Highly recommend them; they're pricier but worth every penny for the assurance.

I just did the same on my car, blue M and start stop buttons. Haven't driven the car yet but they add a nice simple touch.

Yes, I have a set of these same stands and they are solid all right. Thing is my jack cannot lift high enough to get them in place

..... on the hunt for a new one now but it will be worth it!

New2Roundel · 06-25-2018, 08:06 AM

Addressed an annoying CEL, which corresponded to fault code 5DB6. The fault was in reference to the left rear speed sensor, which is fairly cheap and very easy to fix. The light sort of went away as soon as I cleared it. The Foxwell NT510 I was using noted that I also needed to re-calibrate the steering angle, which the NT510 is capable to doing. Made the change and the dash was once again dark and all the faults remained off. That was an annoying code as it resulted not only in the ABS/DSC/brake CELs to appear, but cruise control didn't work, EDC didn't works, and the directionals would no longer automatically shut off when I move the steering wheel back straight. Everything was cleared up once I switched the speed sensor and recalibrated the steering.

They make a version for lower cars (model 10499). I have a pair of the regular (model 10498) and the lower model. There is prob a 1-1.5 inch difference in the minimum height.

I have a 3-ton jack and have no issues raising the M high enough. I use low profile ramps for the front, in order to fit my jack underneath the front jackpad however.

Swapped my black leather for fox red, took me 2 years to find someone who wanted to swap lol

Just curious, looks like you have stoptechs. As you know each caliper has two bleed screws, one on outside and one on inside. When you bleed are you supposed to bleed the outside one first, then inside ?

Just under 1/4 tank (12.5 liters) or so. I set it for 8 liters. I don't like the alert going off at 1/4 tank.

Outward, then inward to the MC.

Had some fun in the Baltimore Harbor tunnel

timothy2001 · 06-25-2018, 12:34 PM

LOVE this. Works under over passes too and on some limited accesses highways with high walls.

This is for another post and entirely rhetorical but who DOESN'T goose it when it sounds that good?
