I have a stock 2007 n54 LPFP for sale w/ 80k on it if anyone wants it or would like to DIY a stage 2 pump. Make me an offer, Fuel It charges $150 for a core so please keep that in mind when you low ball me.

The DIY on youtube actually looks pretty easy.

zero2sixtyZ · 11-06-2017, 09:08 AM

Yay, another recall.

Etek · 11-06-2017, 02:54 PM

just checked my VIN on NHTSA and it came up with no recalls

For what? I guess my mail travels slower than yours.

I think I need to buy myself an xmass present.

edit: Oh the recall that explains how my car may have caught on fire. These cars are so reliable.

vilord · 12-01-2017, 10:22 AM

My E91 now has open recalls for exploding airbags, HVAC connectors that catch on fire even when the car is parked, and PCV heater connectors that catch on fire.

Gotta love it.

I'm hoping that since they have to pull the intake manifold to fix the PCV heater that they will fix the IM vacuum leak that's been popping up.

I might just wait and have them do it all in one visit, see if BMW Sudbury can give me an F31 diesel as a loaner for a couple days. I know they have at least one F31 in their loaner fleet, though don't know if its a 330d.

How'd you guys fare after the storm?

Torgus · 01-07-2018, 02:59 PM

Other than cleaning up just fine. When is lunch?

I wish I could decide what to do with my e92 and blown turbos...

I'll plan something in spring. My 3 is in storage.

I'll have my car fixed by then...or I'll sell it for scrap.

I'm looking forward to meeting y'all then! I'm in my 06 325 right now, but hopefully will be in a 335i by spring!

After being bimmerless for a few months after the accident, I'm finally back in business! I just picked up a 2011 e92 335is, can't wait to get start the process all over again

Thank you! I picked her up Sunday morning in VA and then drove 7.5 hours back to RI. I wanted to stick with a N54 since I still have all of my old parts from my last E92.

Here are a few pics from the listing:

Torgus · 01-10-2018, 06:11 PM

Love the interior. Beautiful car.

I'm happy I had to only take a flight to NJ to get mine. The right car is worth a 300 plane ticket.

I would have mhd flashed it the second you got it

then you get to go back to the seller and complain about a misfire.

Lookin good! Congrats!

b92 · 01-11-2018, 10:47 AM

Torgus thank you! Might need some help with a walnut blast if you're up for it again! Based on how it's idling I think I might be fine, waiting for my borescope to be delivered and then I'll know for sure.

@bhenault thanks man, I'm very excited about it. The 335is is so awesome in stock form, I don't have the urge to modify it yet. The exhaust note is intoxicating.

Sure, why not.

zero2sixtyZ · 01-11-2018, 02:23 PM

Nice 335is, @b92
That's the original color combo I went to shop for. Bonus points for it being an is.

Thanks! Saddle Brown still has my heart but I think Coral Red looks a lot better with the 335is aluminum trim and anthracite headliner. Overall I'm extremely pleased with the interior, the red looks a lot better in person than the picture above (as I'm sure most of you are aware).

I hate the M Sport shift knob though, it feels really cheap and is ergonomically unpleasant. I have the ZHP knob I had on my last e92, I'm gonna go to install that now
