Changed my front differential fluid, cleaned underside of engine/diff etc. Tightened up my dampening on the v3's, adjusted front ride height.

Then changed the power steering hoses on my dad's hellrot e36 m3.

I going to be sore and already covered in grease. Gear oil smell in garage is rancid.

Cleaned and conditioned the front seats with Lexol cleaner and conditioner. I didn't bother doing the back seats since nobody ever sits back there and it was getting hot in the garage.

Finally got around to detailing the wife's new car today. Also was finally able to try "Sonax Wheel Cleaner Plus" based on all the great review and all I can say is Wow!! I highly recommend it as it was effortless in removing BMW brake dust. No scrubbing required.

Best of all is while cleaning under the seat I FIND the cars 2nd Set of Keys that the dealer said they didn't have. Felt like I won the lottery today with that as it saved me near $200!

yipronny · 08-02-2015, 09:21 PM

Washed and detailed the car. Also washed the engine bay!

stashtrey · 08-02-2015, 09:55 PM

Did a full brake bleed/flush and replaced all pads on my dad's E36 M3. We are having some steering slack issue when stabbing the brakes. Been tracking it down for a couple weeks. All suspension components are brand new. Poly bushings, AST 4100 coils, vorshlag plates. Very frustrating.

Cleaned/conditioned my front seats with Mothers Leather Tech. Unreal how much dirt and grime came off using a bristle brush! Leather is supple and soft. Great stuff.

Had 2 snapped engine mount bolts replaced. Thank goodness for CPO.

Monster900 · 08-03-2015, 10:06 PM

Replaced water pump and thermostat?

SMH · 08-03-2015, 11:29 PM

Got the expansion tank replaced and a new front tire that had a huge bolt in it thanks to the dealership

Swizzie7 · 08-04-2015, 11:34 PM

Ordered my Painted Reflectors

MoonsOfJupiter · 08-05-2015, 08:05 PM

Bought a 1999 Toyota Corolla (manual) so my daughter can learn to drive and I can stay sane.

NEFARIOUS · 08-06-2015, 01:10 AM

After my last project, I discovered I can't upshift in Tiptronic anymore, but can engage all other gears... Found the light blue wire broken in half, then began taping up every single one of them (just did the white one and didn't bother to take more pictures)...

Now I can upshift again!

Wrapped my reverse lights in red vinyl (liked the white ones at first, but the more I looked at them, the more I started to have how they look, lol):

Still waiting for my torque wrench to be able to install 20mm rear spacers.
