Thought I'd chime in - recently joined the world of BMW with my 2007 335i Coupe. A bit NW of Milwaukee here, but get into town often enough.

Darkcyd_Turbo · 05-21-2013, 11:49 PM

I've been seeing quite a few new e9x's in town (Madison). Anyone of you guys on here? And yes I've been inactive for quite sometime lol.

I belive that I found a few threads where Wisco was looking for coding assistance in WI, but I believe he struck out. Has that changed? I was just looking for some simple things like coding to hifi etc...

Thanks -

hodgeman · 08-26-2013, 01:27 PM

I've been lurking here for a while, long enough that I should probably announce my presence. I'm a new BMW owner, as of a couple months ago. I purchased a beautiful 06 330xi, black on black. Awesome car, I love it, but it has had it's challenges!

I'm not completely new to BMWs, I helped my son swap an M42 into his 91 318is, and we painted it. He also owns a 95 740I, and just traded the 318is for a 318i.

I live North-East of Madison about 40 miles, and commute to Madison every day.

I've learned a ton off this site, did a thermostat and water-pump replacement within 3 days of purchasing my 330 with instructions from this site!

If you are ever considering a vehicle from Fidelity Motor Group from Barrington, Il, contact me for the story.

Thanks!

Yeah I'm curious who this would be too...

tsweers89 · 09-07-2013, 05:27 PM

Anyone know who these people are or have had service done by them? I just picked up a e92 335 and am thinking that a walnut blasting service should be done, also need spark plugs and oil change. This is a link to their thread: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=886333

GB-335xiCoupe · 09-24-2013, 01:52 AM

Greetings fellow Earthlings - I'm hailing from Green Bay. Just moved into the Bimmer world with a used 2011 E92 335xi with 53k miles.

I've been reading a lot on this forum, learning a lot and found that I'll probably be dreading the maintenance on this car. I drive about 35k+ per year. So this might be a real short ownership, but I'll try to squeeze out 150-200k miles... Just bought a PROcede V3 - will install it next week.

I think I got a pretty good deal on this ride. The x-drive was the ticket for Wisconsin winters, and it's got way more ballz than my 2010 VW CC. I find myself actually looking forward to the snow. Crazy, I know.

My territory for work runs from the northern border of Wisconsin around Iron Mountain/Florence, out to Edgar/Marshfield and south to the north edge of Milwaukee, and including Door County. It about 1/3 of the state.

Not that I like being a taxi, but I drive around so much, I'd probably be willing to help anyone needing to sell/transfer parts if I happen to be coming to your areas. It would be great to meet some of you in the Green Bay area who like to do your own maintenance, and maybe we can save a few bucks together and share info about local mechanics/dealers.

Feel like I'm introducing myself at an AA meeting.... I'm Mike and I'm a BMW Addict...

mke135i · 09-29-2013, 04:38 PM

Have a set of 4x stock all season tires from my now gone 135i. Tires have about 6k miles on them. Come pick them up and they are yours... FREE. PM for address.

Anyone want to get a group together to ride? I live in Milwaukee by the lake, willing to go wherever and cruise.

Hi new e90 member here.

Just did my differentials and MTF... I have extra fluids: royal purple gear oil and redline ATF6. Also have 3 qts mobil1 0w-40. If anyone in milwaukee wants them at half price of amazon.com PM me.

Also i am quite comfortable coding e90 2006 if you need help or easy mods.

CJD3 · 02-12-2014, 02:28 PM

Is it me or are the roads in and around milwaukee just terrible this year....

pbirsche90 · 02-12-2014, 09:39 PM

I think they're terrible everywhere. I already had to replace one of my winter tires from a pothole.

Also very new to BMW and this forum! Got myself a e90 328i 6MT as a graduation present to myself after college. Now moved to Madison and getting settled.

Hopefully looking to get some solid upgrades on it when this "polar vortex" finally goes away and the salt gets off the roads.
