Thank God lol, So just go to the warning, hold that side button for 5 seconds?
-
So after changing the wheels, the tyre pressure warning light came on and i'm assuming that the old wheels had TPS installed on the old stock standard wheels If i reset it, will it keep coming back? Do i have to do anything to disable it completely? Or do i have to get the TPS valves transfered over to the new wheels lol
-
Chucked some tyre shine on it, really brought out the look A few other things i was planning on doing to it - Blacking out chrome trim - Matte black or carbon fibre interior trim, no more wood grain - Blacking out the grill

Time to add some brake dust to them lol
-
Painted, fitted tomorrow ! ???
-
Wheel prep all done, Primer time
-
Paint has arrived, should be getting the wheels and rocker cover cowl painted in the next few days I found a Perfect BMW blue i thought would accent a silver shell, even debating doing the brake calipers with it too! Wheels - Terminator colour, like a dark gunmetal Valve Cover - BMW Estoril Blue, she's gunna pop!
-
Went to town with a file and orbital sander on the rims, still a few holes that i might use alloy filler or primer to sort out I think these photos say it best Before After
-
Starting to look nice and aggressive just doing a test fit before i strip em back and go gun metal
-
yeah mate, Was having to fix up the bumper on the missus car, so i got some gun metal paint while i was at it, so $40 in paint for all the rims, at worst i might buy some alloy filler ($20) to fill in the curb rash, as I generally don't like filing into a rim unless i absolutely have to Hoping the gun metal colour hides this build brake dust a bit better, it's an epidemic ! I cleaned the wheels last week, and they covered in brake dust already lol
-
$200 ....... including tyres, WHAT LUCK! I went to pick em up because i thought the style would fit then once i cleaned up all the brake dust, i see all the BBS engravings Condition isn't too bad, but intend on fully restoring them, worth holding for a bit, they look like they worth alot in good condition
-
After a bit of luck I managed to score some genuine BBS RX206 18" Wheels that just need a bit of curb rash sorted out They not bolted up just yet, but they are going to look mint going to fix all curb rash, and re-paint them - I plan on going gunmetal on them Like this colour
-
+1 to that, same thing on alot of my BMW's leaves in trim etc always seem to cause leaks
-
Will this work? I think i read the 325i e90 is ISO14230-4 protocol https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33003727739.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.9.699a2f84N9cpNm&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0%2Csearchweb201602_2_10065_10068_10547_319_10059_10884_317_10548_10887_10696_321_322_10084_453_10083_454_10103_10618_10307_537_536%2Csearchweb201603_52%2CppcSwitch_0&algo_expid=a7f82eb6-58e1-4220-872c-7b2e09e1f5d9-1&algo_pvid=a7f82eb6-58e1-4220-872c-7b2e09e1f5d9

Does anyone have BMW scan tools they use at home to recommend? Do the basic OBD2 ones work? Or is it best to buy a BMW specific one, My engine check light came on today, and would be good to have a tool on hand at home for now and the future, got sick of taking it into a shop to figure out what usually turns out to be something small specifically a 2006 e91 n52 325
-
when that red service light is on says -25,000, and then goes away as the car starts But i know for a fact the car was serviced before I bought it Was just wondering if there is a broad "service reminder" setting that a tool has to reset, or if its picking up on one of the individual lights, because i've scrolled through them and none say 25,000 overdue.
-
yeah i can only find ones on how to reset each light like oil, brakes, fluid, a/c etc not actually get rid of that light or is that light from one of those items not being reset?
-
Anyone know how to reset this light? it comes on when i start the car for a second - the car was serviced before i got it, but the guy never got time to take it back to mechanics. Can this light be reset without a tool?
-
I got mine done in Auckland, for round $120 including the key. You'll have to send up your EWS unit though But yes $300-$500 is pretty standard
-
Good spotting, never even noticed that black plastic piece until now! Looks ugly as
-
Gave it a full clean, shampoo vaccumed the carpet and took to the wheels with some scotch brite and handy andy. Given it some life, might even hit it with some 2000grit, meguiars polish and wax it now trying to sort some wheels - all though those stock standard ones don't look too bad all cleaned up might make the stock ones plasti-dip black in the mean time or something

Not alot worked on the gear shifter. Here's why lol
