So, I attempted this morning to change the rear drop links on my E90. All was going well. Top nuts off, along with one lower bolt. The second lower bolt, however, decided to shear off, leaving only a few threads exposed from the hub.
I have had to admit defeat here and the car will be going in next week for a professional to free the sheared bolt and fit the new drop links. To top it all off, I managed to hit myself in the face with a spanner 🔧 🤦🏻‍♂️ |

Today I put the newly gasketed VC back on. Not too bad. On the reinstall one of the two PCV caps inside the VC came off so had to pull the VC off again and JB'd the cap back on. Am waiting overnight for the JB to fully cure before starting the car and checking for leaks. My wife asks why I spend so much time cleaning the engine compartment. She doesn't understand, I'm removing fingerprints from the scene of the crime.

On mine, it's only misting a little, so I'm just going to leave it for now. Still monitoring the football gasket, but it seems to be fine! |

did a swap, the code wasn't there, now it's there. What I did not plug back ? abs sensor? (transfer case is connected, both harness) will get into it tomorrow morning. |

ABS sensor would be my first guess, but there are a few other choices for sure!
