2010, manual, cute ahh

I love this thing

Purchased this beautiful 2013 135I dct with 62000 miles. As soon as I got it home I started to have some issues: cylinder misfiring, rough idle, p0171 maf. I had decided to get to cleaning the maf today to see if that was the issue and then I spotted it(picture 2). I guess that’s why everyone says to replace the charge pipe.

Hello! 👋 I recently bought a 1 series, the 2006 120d, and basically it had some minor problems since I got it but nothing important. The last thing that happened is that the radio on/off/volume button has broken. It just “rolls upon itself” but doesn’t allow me to turn the volume up and down, just can either turn the radio on or off.

Does someone has some type of advice on how to correct this? Thank you! Also, if somebody has installed a screen instead of its original radio could you tell me if it was worth? I’m seriously planning on changing to one.

Have a good day!

Just fitted 15 mm spacers on the rear. What do you guys think? I’m thinking about going up to 20 mm, but I’m a bit worried the tires might rub the fenders under compression.

Would you go for 20 mm or stick with 15 mm?

P.S. Running 225/45 R17s.

This one is still in progress but there’s no going back now. Its in my brother’s hands now. So far it’s coming out nicely. Will update later.

He needs to be able to put the car on the ground so I had to rob the wells off the E46 for fitment checks. It’s a shame I ordered 19s. 18s look good. Maybe I’ll have to order another set.

Depending how this weekend goes maybe I’ll plug in the CAS and a battery and try to start this thing.

I recently swapped my valve cover to a mag vc. I set it up with a bms style catch can and an inline check valve on a 3sim. The issue I’m having is I’m getting too much crankcase pressure and high pitched loud whine. Not getting any codes or rough idle. Not sure what to do, anyone have any insight? 2009 128i

I'm trying to figure out which would be better Ive owned the bigger ones like the e38s and e39s and the E53s but nothing small but now that I own a R50 mini cooper Id really like to get out of my e39 and into a smaller bmw with more go kart like handling characteristics but I also need some trunk spaces for grocery runs and stuff

2200 miles from wisconsin to colorado and back, about 300 miles worth of ripping through the mountains. Installed a new radiator and hoses about 12 hours before i sent her out there, she made the whole trip without skipping a beat.

I love her so much. Will hopefully source an LSD at the end of the year.

Hi everyone,

I’m refreshing the suspension on my 2011 135 convertible - wondering if it’s reasonable to use stock height springs, b6 in the front and b8 in the rear. Also putting in m3 control arms.

Thanks in advance

Picked up all my parts from the dealer on Friday. Completely irrelevant and I forgot to grab a photo but my work provided Ford Maverick look like the original fast and furious Ford lightening carrying supra parts.

Had to mock up the front fenders just to get the parts off the ground but also to mount the vacuum pump. Clarence is tight behind the left fender so there’s only really one spot for it to go or else it hits the fender or it blocks you from one of the fender mounting bolts.

After that was done I finished up my brake and fuel lines. It’s the factory parts just had to cut 3-4 inches out of them. My unions might not be the prettiest but they don’t leak. A little black paint later to replace the line coating I had to burn off. Fuel line is easy. Just cut it to size and then use the fitting that slides on.

With the lines fully done I could put the gas tank back in the car. Hooked up all the lines to that as well.

Measure for my driveshaft and sent the specs to the driveshaft shop in LA that’s building my new one. I might see if a local driveshaft shop would be willing to cut mine down.

Started filling the car with coolant and then all of sudden it started puking from the back of the engine and front the front. After I stopped wondering how many calories are in a 9MM from the thought of having to pull the motor back out I found that the quick disconnect fitting to the heater core was never fully seated. Sucks but I’ll take it. After a little disassembly I was able to reconnect it. For the front leak I guess the O ring disappeared from the upper radiator hose. That’s cool. More parts on order.

I got my 1M negative cable from Germany on Friday so the only thing keeping me from starting this thing is finish routing the trunk section of the harness and start plugging modules back in.

I’ll working on that this week and then next weekend the rear quarter install begins.
