What did you do to your car today?

Seattlesquash · 10-13-2018, 11:12 PM

Just noticed this, bummer! Got to figure out before I repair, and lowered on Eibach pro, FSD, M3 control arms, new shock mounts, and rotiform w 245-35-19 Michelin's. Strange thing I did 9 months on setup so not sure if one bad pothole or other issue. Never rubbed prior either. Let me know if you had similar issue? Thanks!

Not sure, I dig it up, but thinking might be a bit too low with Eibach pro drop!

disassemble bumpers to repair angel eyes and blade under bumper

maxwell1331 · 10-14-2018, 09:29 AM

Reinstalled tuned DME — Active Autowerke
Installed three stage intake manifold
Installed Turner Motorsport silicone intake boot
Installed euro air box

Performed throttle bottle adaptation reset (accelerator reset) this cleared throttle body adaptation and throttle codes thrown after install was complete (002CFB and 002D09)

Great upgrade. I've got a little over 80 miles on it since install and it's driving great. Not neck snapping power increase but more responsive and pulls better across the board.

Saddle was hard to find (took 6 months of fairly regular searching), so I'm sure finding a set in Coral is tough.

I paid $125 for the passenger's seat and $135 for the driver's seat, which I think was an awesome deal for seats in great condition. Shipping from the salvage yard in TX to CO was $175 on a pallet via UPS Freight.

A yard in CA has had a set for available for $500/seat the whole time, but that's way overpriced in my opinion. I would have been willing to pay about $250-300 per seat, max, depending on condition.

Make sure to check car-part.com. And when filtering, look at the results for sport and non-sport, passenger and driver side, because the seats are often misclassified or only listed under one side.

Good luck with the search and let me know if you have any other questions!

Just a simple quick oil change !!!

What slavage yard was it? Im in Texas so it would be nice to have another place to keep in mind when im looking.

FlaPatsFan · 10-14-2018, 01:48 PM

Didn’t do it yet but just ordered a new front splitter and rods. Redoing the current set up.

It was All Import Auto Parts in Ft. Worth.

Swapped Active Headlight Modules chasing a fault light. Gave me a chance to clean up the front end, change a broken lower grill, polish my headlights, and replace my busted under shield. Oh, cleaned up my brake calipers too since they’ve been bugging me.

First chance to use my new Quickjack on the E92. Worked perfectly.

gamesfrager · 10-14-2018, 04:51 PM

Power steering fluid change, using top engine method with a big syringe.
My second maintenance DIY

Looking good, and nice job! I love the quick-jack as well, and should have bought that years ago!

RB PVC Valve

malgyver · 10-15-2018, 02:03 PM

Started replacing my Alternator...up out the top by removing the OFH. The OFH is leaking again...my fault. When I replaced the turbos and resealed everything leaking, I misplaced the OFH gasket....so I used my "has never failed" method of sealing with Ultra Black RTV.

Of course, I found the gasket right after getting the car together, and of course, the OFH started seeping eventually. So the front of the motor is an oily mess again.

Rube · 10-15-2018, 05:01 PM

Finally installed my OEM M sport rear bumper cover. Front bumper install soon.

6ixSpd · 10-16-2018, 12:09 AM

Replaced my rotted up throttle body gasket/boot for my AFE intake. I had no idea it was this bad, just happened to disassemble it after noticing the dealership didn't even re-install it properly after doing recall work.

Seriously hoping it resolves my AFR issues and OBD2 readiness problems!

So you are mad that the dealership didn't installed your rotted out aftermarket part properly?

Yes, I expect someone working on my car to put things back the right way.

Even though the gasket was rotting, it was still structurally sound enough to be positioned correctly.

Nevermind that they didn't secure the factory strut tower brace properly either, and did not replace two screws that hold the factory air intake snorkel down.
