I can't get into the facebook pages, its darn near impossible to find any real info there, it's more like a long infomercial with people doing burn outs. I do miss my D, though it went on to live a life in colorado with many many mods. Though the guy never titled it in his name and I've gotten a few tickets sent to me...

I sent screen shot of this through the pipeline. Hopefully, that title gets changed over soon.

Confirmed - he sold his car.
Wondering if you might be the one who helped my dad out building his 335d in the Detroit Area over the last few years?? He always said, "My mechanic lives Up North by Gaylord, MI and specializes in M57's. He is amazing and turned my car into a Unicorn!"

Car is a 2010 335d, Dads name is Mike, last name is only two letters...

FB is the biggest reason we have an idiot in the Oval Office. Zuckerberg is a twit who made a fortune selling his client's data behind their backs. Anyone who supports that platform should consider themselves part of this country's biggest problems today.

Can you show us where Trump hurt your feelings sweetheart? It's ok.. I'm sure a kiss on that boo boo will make it feel better.

That is correct, the wizard up North is Matt Whitbread. But I helped Mike out a few times, too. Last time I remember his anti-shutter valve was kaputt. Very nice guy.

Thanks for helping my Dad with the 335D, he still really loves the car but got something bigger, newer and with a softer ride(A8L) now that he is getting a little older.. Ever since I fixed Code 4530 a few weeks ago though he has been back to 335D because, "Well, it's just more fun!" hahahaha. Pretty excited to get her shipped out here in just a few short weeks!!

Logging in for the first time in years. Good to see so much fresh blood and so many "OG's" still active. Nominating 335dFan as an undercover OG. This platform remains such an invaluable resource for enthusiasts. Be well, diesel brothers & sisters!

Funny. I haven't been on this platform in years. The FB group is ok, but hard to look stuff up, that's why i came in here... and im trying to limit my FB exposure.

Thanks for your help, but unfortunately it didn't change anything.

Frankly Ernesto Rodriguez been a pain in the ass. I'm still getting his tickets as of today. He says send them but would never give me his address. I had to reach out to the mechanic who picked up the car for Ernesto's info.

Over a year later he still never registered the car and is playing hide and seek from me and the law. Very shady. Highly irritating getting parking tickets, toll ticket and etc. sent to me constantly.

I'll let 335dlci know again. He was the guy who came down to pick up your car and drive back. I will never sell a car again unless we go to the court house for title transfer. I was getting letters from North Texas Toll Road Authority because my deadbeat brother hadn't transferred title. I did do the form where you claim car is no longer yours with DMV. This is enough to protect you from liability if he wrecks car and its still in your name.

I don't understand how he can get registration done in Colorado.
