Jan 335I sedan and July 07 335I sedan..

blackcat335i · 07-07-2007, 08:35 PM

Hi
I got my second 335I AT sedan few day ago as my dec 335 was total loss.
There are very noticable different. The new car feel and sound much better when starts up and just so much smoother driving it. I know it new but it dosen't feel the same when the other one was new.

Both have sport pakage....+ The new one has premium pakage, paddle shiffers, navigation and ....

The rubber on front side windows is different ...not sure why?
When I unlock the car, it lights up with parking lights.
additional oil cooler here are some pic.

How can I check if the fuel pump is new ( I have few hard starts from the old one) and where can I find the built dates?
before

New

Wow those are some pretty high quality shots, especially the first. The car's build date should be in the driver's side door jam. Not sure about the fuel pump though.

Your parking lights turn on when you unlock? All mine do is turn on the interior lights and the door handles.

It's an option that you can turn on/off. Check the owner's manual

Oh really? Didn't know that. That's what I get for not reading the manual. Thanks for the tip!

My old sedan only turns on the interior lights and the door handles. The New Sedan turns on the front parking light and the rear light when unlock.

I'm not to sure the early 335I sedan can without I drive? The new sedan I can set the option in I drive. too bad the old sedan can't startup, and the insurance company is picking it up next Monday.

Here is the place I upload my photos and you can zoom closer, most of them are not car photos... just my weekend morning hobby.

Wow I took a look at your site and all I can say is DAMN! Those are some really awesome shots, honestly! I saw the one of your E90 smashed in the back, sorry about that man, can I ask what happened? I have iDrive and I haven't encountered any options for the parking lights to come on.

What camera do you use?

The camera is a Nikon D200, and a few nice lense.

I had a really bad accident two week ago when an out of control suv came crashing at me ... me and some cars were waitting at a red arrow lights ... 7 car collision, one guy killed. as u can see in the photo ...I had to force open my trunk to save my camera gears...

People drive crazy in LA. I was out today and I saw 4 car accidents within 15 miles. Everyone pls drive safe

blackcat335i · 07-08-2007, 12:02 AM

my old sedan is a dec 06 build date ... I don't think it has the option of the welcome lights..... I might be wrong.

The new sedan is a may 07 build date, the options to turn off the welcome light is in i drive

setting
vehical/tires
lighting
welcome light

you can have the parking lights blink. just toggle the options on your turn signal stalk.

blackcat335i · 07-08-2007, 10:22 AM

Where is the fuel pump located, is that something that I can look at to tell the different? as I still have the old sedan till tomorrow.

Thanks

wish my engine bay was still that clean, i want to dump loads of water in there and see what happens

vase330 · 07-08-2007, 10:40 AM

See the tubing from your oil filter? And the oil cooler is visible behind your wheel well. Kudos dude! Enjoy the new ride. BTW that old smashed car doesn't look that bad. It looks fixable to me unless there is more damage I am not seeing. Totalled? Wow. Its sad someone lost their life in that accident. People ought to stop driving like complete idiots. Damn the SUVs. People act funny in SUVs, like they are invincible and no one else matters on the road. Ever seen how they speed on ice? A car stops much better, but most SUV drivers believe just the opposite. I-G-N-O-R-A-N-C-E is a bad thing.

blackcat335i · 07-08-2007, 10:44 AM

I try to clean the engine area every week when I wash the car... but it still dirty. (Old 335i)
The other car is only 3 days old it will be dirty soon.

If I win the lotto I will buy one 335i just for display... new car alway smell and look so good.
