Android screen upgrade to 2009 E83 with original GPS
Jacko replied to agricon's topic in Audio & In Car Entertainment
No idea its totally different to my android setup, mine has a menu item to remove the rear camera functionality (Im assuming it doesnt have a camera) -
You can gear gear indicator in dash with kombi coding on carly etc

Car detailing- anyone had experience with ceramic car coating?
Jacko replied to Goffy's topic in Appearance
Its not a total scam, just got to think of it as really long life wax, and not some invincible force field. -

Gave it another wash in the weekend and then used the fusso spray wax thats the recommended "top up", its now even shinier. The fusso remained really glossy the whole time, and 10000 dead bugs came off really easily. This stuff is new favourite wax, its better than stuff 4 times the price. -
I got some fairly legit ones off amazon, they're probably better than OEM.

Some 130 threads for ya to read up -

Awesome, thats my cars sister! Manual NZ new cars are rocking horse sh*t, one of 13, glad its getting looked after, was a good buy. Welcome to the cool kids club The only difference to mine from the dealer is mine got the aero pack rear spoiler (and mine has 175,000 more k's on the clock!) Id be interested in the BMW Performance backbox if you want to sell it. Demand world wide for them would be pretty high, but limited market in NZ. It'd be worth a couple of hundred if not beaten up.

Possibly, havent really played much with INPA.
-
ISTA+ or Protools can do it
-
Valvetronic motor? Might be worth relearning the limits and seeing if it goes away, as well as resetting the DME adaptations
-
Probably same thing, havent looked into it, its probably the same DSC module on all the 6 pots (4 pots are different for sure)
-
Is just a coding option on the LCI DSC module, is on by default on LCI cars. Considering my DSC module accepted coding for BBK, which is an LCI only option.. it may even be possible to turn it on on the older cars (why though..)
-
Its probably cheaper to just do an engine swap with a wreckered engine (that isnt dead). Hit up @HELLBM they may have something in stock.
-
e-diff, but it was only on lcis (which that isnt), and is sh*t. Just works like traction control by braking spinning wheel, sending torque to the other.
-
I was totally in the camp of BBK wont stop you quicker previous to these posts, but did about 20m of reading on the internet and now am expert, and that might actually be wrong as its not as simple as locking the wheel. Maximum friction between tyre and road is right at the point before lockup obviously. If BBK hooked up with ABS can control the wheel speed more accurately, through more braking torque and clamping force, then the wheel/tyre could be held in the sweet spot of maximum friction better... which would reduce braking distance. Should have done some testing before hand, stock vs BBK vs BBK with coding, would be curious if there was any difference initial stop distances.

Im trying to justify cost, yellow saved half a metre! Your "science" isnt helping.

After a B40 23 spine wheel nut key ASAP, anyone got one? p/n 36136762344 https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-bmw-parts/wheel-bolt-adapter-code-40/36136762344/

Getting good at doing these, 3 hours.

Got the opportunity today to test the brakes, and coding, in Tauranga today... f**kknuckle in a van pulled out in front of me at 80kmh, I slammed on brakes at full noise, got ABS pulsing and the skippy lockup feeling.... full emergency stop. Missed the asshat by about half a metre, probably half a metre that I didnt have before to be fair. So they've probably paid for themselves

k's mean zippo if its been maintained, the question is - has it been maintained?

Fusso King of Gloss. It's definitely very glossy, goes on easily. Need to put on thinly as it dries hard and white, gets cakey if thick. Leaves quite a bit of dust buffing off... But it's definitely easy and very glossy -
The M3 LCAs do BIG things to the steering, keep an eye on amazon you can get the OEM TRW kits for peanuts with some shopping around (think I paid like $200USD for LCAs and tension arms) Im surprised yours doesnt have the pin mod done, golf T mod and knocking out the pins is normally part of the 130 starter pack.
