Also filthy because there’s a big dent in it with paint chipped off as well. So now I need to see if they accept liability, then repair to good standard, then my Detailer needs to re clay, cut, polish, and ceramic protect so it’s a big job for nothing Quote:

Side note - after driving it again from being in the 125i for so long, the steering is RIDICULOUSLY heavy. Feels like my power steering is screwed. I’m sure it’s just from having electric steering for so long but wow what a difference. Will take a bit of getting used to again |

Common complaint after we loan out new models to owners of hydraulic power steering models.
Some of the low end F20 models have a bit more heft in their EPS |

Yep, drove a hire car for a month and the first time i got in my car it felt like it had two flat tyres. I'd does add to the experience.

New car in a year or so. Will have 125000kms, hopefully get rid of it before any other big stuff go on me. Cars staying on oem tune and intake - less power, less likely to brake something :-) You’re welcome mate. Hope it helps |

I bought a new pump from FCP euro the other day and got a continental in a VDO box... weird. I did 100k Kms and had no signs of issues but replacedit and lots of other gear proactively

Posting this here as it didn’t warrant a new thread
Got in the car this arvo, and after driving 50m got a half cel. Continued driving to my destination (3km away) and read codes. Error 2DCE - valvetronic system no adjustment possible came up. Cleared it went inside for 4hrs. Got in car and drove 35km home no problem. How worried should I be? Car is 100% Bmw software. Only mods are afe sealed cai, vrsf 7” FMIC, gfb dv+ diverted valve, Remus axle back exhaust (rest of exhaust is oem). |
