Running on 3 cylinders, just happened out of the blue while i was crusing along at 100km/h, inhectors and plugs were near new (<3000kms) mhd scan shows up internal dme error (error 30bb)... thinking its the infamous mosfet issues on the msd80 dme.

Ordered a $10 multimeter on ebay and just waiting for it to arrive so i can test the dme and go from there, meanhwile have been watching YouTube vidies regarding battery discount and dme removal so i don't accidentally screw it up... 😂

Today painted the wheels for the M3, wanted a more modern look for the car so went with a gunmetal gray colour, I wonder if Socks can pick the colour...

Oh dear, not the red on the car, the gray on the wheels, which is space gray.

When I was looking for a gunmetal gray colour to paint the wheels, Space Gray came up in some forums and I liked the look of it, so my wheels are now space Gray

they came up sooo good, I might even change the black wheels on the e92 to space Gray as well...

Haha space gray is the worlds best color Hops

always looks great... why stop at the wheels you should paint the whole car space gray including the interior, engine and underside haha #spacegraymegolmania

e36mmm · 06-26-2018, 03:56 AM

Hahaha I didn't read properly. Apologies. I love those oem wheels. Are you going to keep the car or sell it? I'd hold on to it after that much work..
