Driftit 1264 Report post Posted March 29 Rubber floor mats that I can get quickly that fit well. Can anyone recommend any? I usually hate them but I need them to protect the carpet as we move into wetter weather. I also have sheep on the property who just love to sleep on the bloody driveway right by the gate. When I go to leave they stand up, take a dump and wander away. I hate sheep. There are about 200 of them taking turns doing this it seems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GorGasm 335 Report post Posted March 30 Rubbertree probably has something. Although the ones I got for my Maser are ever so slightly too big which is annoying as they bunch up. https://www.rubbertree.co.nz/product/75324/all-weather-rubber-car-mats-to-suit-bmw-1-series-e87-hatch-5-door-2004-2011 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has a few goodies on it. Great candidate for a manual swap. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, right. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/3038361663 It's like mine. But with more KMs. A year older. No wheels. And in worse condition. For double the price... Good buy. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whenever I want or need more aggressive shifting, rev hold to redline or manual mode that doesn't automatically revert to Drive. The standard mode on the box does none of those things. My trans has been flashed though and is very aggressive in Sport mode, your experience may be different. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every time I go over the hill to Wellington. Is great. Changes fast. I don't let it do it's own thing though. I just the paddles. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

outlawtorn 41 Report post Posted Friday at 08:13 AM Has anyone fitted M3 gearbox mounts? Is it worth it? I hear swapping out the gearbox fluid for Redline is a good thing to improve shift feel? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
