I've had my 335is for about 2 months... I love it. I want to do some light mods to it but just don't want to do anything crazy.. Any advice? Looking for a good shop in the westchester/ny area! And maybe even a couple meetup/rides.. I never see any 335is by me!! I love being unique

DCT makes clunking sound when shifting into reverse
My car is a 2012 with only 6k on the odometer. I've never tracked or driven the car hard. I read over in the M3 forum that some have had this problem and that a software update resolves the problem. Anyone else have any info?

you can change all your yellow interior lights to LED if you want as well as your exterior turn signals. you can get a BMW performance rear spoiler in carbon fiber. But you SHOULD get downpipes (VRSF or AR) and a tune when you want more power. Some choose a front mount inter cooler (FMIC) but most go with the downpipes and tune (jb4 or cobb).

I don't have any yellow lights in my interior. They are all amber and LED. Maybe the glovebox? And, I don't believe I have any turn signals that are incandescent either. I rarely use my blinker. The ones on the front are LED built into the headlight. Same with the back - built into the taillight. The only other I can think of is the side marker. But, I believe that is an LED on the 335is as well.

yes the 3 amber LED built-in the headlight is not what im talking about haha, sadly nobody has gotten them coded out, the wiring itself needs to be cut . i always have mixed feelings about those lights.. sometimes i like them sometimes i dont.

The downpipes most definitely due to the fact that it is aftermarket and has no catalytic converters. Quote:
Some who are still under warranty have either said F-that im gonna do it anyway OR have found a mod friendly service advisor. The option is yours, and the choices you make as a knowledgeable and informed adult (disclaimer - please dont come after me and say you said it was all right and i'd be okay modding my car!)

Depends on the dealer, if they can attribute an error to the change, they will do so. Most have no issues with cold air intake, but I think you will have issues with down pipes. I think they throw out error codes from the jump. But I installed a cold air intake and had no issues dealing with warranty maintenance for the past few years.

For those of you lowered on aftermarket springs, what do you recommend? I was planning on going with the Eibach Pro-kits but not sure if the drop is enough. But I don't want the slammed look either. I'm on stock 225M 19's

Didn't consider lowering perches. How would they pair with the oem springs?
Hmmm, not sure if 0.5 drop in the front would be enough. Last edited by JunkyardDogg; 12-01-2014 at 09:57 PM.. |

Those of you that like to use the factory launch control expecially those of your that are tuned, this is our weak point in the drivetrain If you start to hear a clacking sounds on hard accelerations, like a gear skiping, or your car starts to vibrate out of the ordinary then your driveshaft is failing and will break eventually. Im on my 4th driveshaft, now getting a CF driveshaft |

also from experience and observation... aren't NY and Jersey roads really bad..? Dark knight with the e93 write about all the times he avoids or slams over the pot holes in the tri-state area.

honestly, the handling is what really makes these cars so enjoyable, so if i had the cash and really consider keeping the car for another 4-6 years. i would just get the coilovers.

Does anyone know the part number for the OEM BMW performance carbon fiber rear deck lid that fits the E92 335 IS? I have one on my car and it was damaged by a car shipper and I need to make sure that the repair place gets the correct part.
