I have a garden 40x40 and grow corn every year actually. It's kind of a waste but I do it for fun. It rapes the earth. I like farm country!

hi - anyone in the area want to spend the Saturday helping a fellow BMW owner do some programming? I'm in Lexington and would love to learn.

We can also spend time fixing or tinkering with any job you have lined up. I've got a few hours.

Thanks!

Nice ride SLOWER!

I went to the dealer on Saturday for an oil change and one of those complimentary checks. It turns out I need to do a lot of work to my car. I knew these were issues already, but didn't know how much it would end up.

oil filter housing gasket is leaking
oil pan gasket is leaking
some other oil leak I can't remember that they quoted $1500 for
rear struts are leaking
rear brakes are going to need replacement soon
driver's side halo light is out
passenger adaptive headlight is stuck turned right

The quote for all the repairs, minus the $1500 one is about $2,500. I think it might be time for an upgrade...

Just replaced my battery & registered it with the BMW-What app. Super easy . I picked a Duralast H8-AGM since it was a direct replacement (or the closest lol)

RIP original battery 03/2009-03/2016, 7 years wtf lol

All typical e9x 3 series issues. That's when I jumped ship to a M3 lol.

Most of those are easy to fix if you have the patience of DIY. Did almost all of those on my e46 beater over the summer. Wasn't that bad.

7 years on a battery is a good run.

Got these pictures last night. I requested Tommy from BavGruppe to help me out with a LCI retrofit. After my experience with doing my old legacy's headlights myself I didn't want to go through the headache of wiring or sealing the headlight again(I resealed like 4 times and water would still get in).

Just a teaser, should be coming in next week. One of the last sets he will be personally doing because the volume of orders is becoming too much. Found this spare set of xenon LCI off ebay for a reasonable price and since these come out so nicely I might end up selling the set on my car.

E92 LCI Xenon with upgrade clear lense, black out housing, DTM halos and quad red demon eyes w/ controller.
