Hello everyone,

Glad to be here. I have been involved in the automotive field for several years and have a particular interest in car maintenance, OEM components, drivetrain systems, and vehicle reliability. A large part of my learning has come from working with different makes and models and understanding the challenges vehicle owners face when it comes to repairs and maintenance.

I recently just acquired a beautiful 2012 E92 M3 that will be arriving next weekend, I’ve already got a list of things to dive into, so expect plenty of questions once it lands. I’ve been following the threads here for a while and I’m stoked to finally join the crew.

Looking forward to reading discussions and contributing where I can.

Thanks for having me.
