I would always bleed. I haven't carefully examined the routing of the line for the clutch, but depending on what humps and whoops the air needs to get through to find the highest place, you may have a bit of air stuck in the line or the slave that could cause an issue out of the blue down the...

Air replaces that fluid that drains, and it ends up in the master.

I don't know the answer (other than buying a new slave cylinder) but you may want to use a flare nut wrench next time and back off the juice. ?

Get a power bleeder and like four quarts of fluid. Motive MVP-0109 power bleeder and BMW 81220142156 low viscosity DOT-4. Make absolutely sure that you do not let the reservoir run dry while you are bleeding at the slave cylinder. Bleed, work the pedal, bleed, work the pedal. Until no more...

Stop engaging the troll. He's been dead on this hill for like a year now. The corpse has rotted and the bones are sun bleached. There's nothing left to his argument.

Your boy outright admitted that he has no experience with a car before and after a clutch delay valve delete. He's just imagining what it's like in his head and telling the rest of us that we're the ones imagining things when deleting the CDV improves shifting experience. It's a weird hill to...

Auto rev match can be disabled in the sport mode, and you can make sport mode the default mode at startup using Bimmercode. I don't dislike rev-matching or heel-toe, I just want to do it myself. The hill assist can't be turned off but it's not invasive. I think it lets go of the brakes as...

OEM downpipe w/aFe Takeda has been pretty good for me. No drone on the highway in 6th gear at 70+ with the valve closed. Slight drone with it open. Sounds rowdy without being obnoxious. I used their resonator delete, which might be too loud with a catless DP but it gives you options.

I see y'all replying to phil and I gotta wonder why you just don't have him on your ignore list yet. I'm sure he's in here gaslighting people but I can't see a damn thing he posts. It's great.

Sounds like you let the hydraulic fluid drain out of the master when you disconnected the line. Is the power bleeder a pressure type or a vacuum type? If it's pressure, push the pedal to the floor and then use the power bleeder to pump some fluid into the system. It should fill the master up...

Good on ya.

Absolute L take. When you're on a track, you're shifting as fast and hard as mechanical sympathy will allow. Those guys probably leave the automatic rev matching on as well. What the CDV really screwed up for me was the finesse situations, like 1-2 at medium accel or downshifting with a...

TEN percent slow? I know it's the wrong accent but oi bruv, you got a loicense for that accurate speedo? :lol:

My Fords were pretty close to dead-nuts on. All three BMW products I've ever owned were by far the worst. It's sooo bad from the factory.

As mentioned by others, the stupid BMW speed correction deliberately shows you going faster than it truly knows you to be going, but records a more accurate mileage for the odometer. This has been the case for a while because my 2011 JCW Mini was like this as well. I don't think we had...

Motive 0109 is the one I used.

Just want to quote this for emphasis, as my experience is the same. There's already a decent blindspot on the other side of the rear view mirror, no need to make it larger. I have mine tucked up by the headliner as you've shown and it doesn't impede visibility at all.

Happened at the dealership on day one. I thought I was going crazy until I figured out how to replicate it. I checked my receipt for Bimmercode, and I had the car for two weeks before I changed anything. :dunno:

You'll need to ditch the cigarette lighter adapter and go hardwired. How you do this can be any number of ways and will depend on the plug the device needs and the voltage it's expecting. This thread has some ideas: https://www.supramkv.com/threads/radar-detector-direct-wire.12504/ Here's a...

One of my big concerns with doing anything is maintaining proper pedal feel and F/R brake balance.
