Let me add my contribution to the chorus of folk checking to make sure their charger is appropriate. Will this one do: Ampeak 2/8/15A 12V Smart Battery Charger/Maintainer Fully Automatic with Winter Mode...

Just point out the variances from normal, and avoid talking about your BimmerCode suspicions.

Talk to the local service manager and see if they’ll do it under warranty.

If you bought it from a reputable dealer I would expect them to do that for free.

If you bought it from a Toyota dealer I would suggest taking it back to them to have the head unit flashed back to factory if you want to be sure.

I think the point is that they are all seasons. At least that’s why I was considering a set in the future.

I’ve had my eye on those for when the time to replace my factory tires arrives. I’ll be interested to hear how you like them once you get them installed.

Manual allows for up to one US quart of alternate, not complete refill. If I read correctly. https://www.supramkv.com/threads/car-excessively-burning-oil.8084/post-123773

Best I can tell it's behind the interior panels in the drivers side part of the trunk, however I have yet to be able to access it. I don't intend to tear things apart. My dealer doesn't have any idea how to get it. I consider this a best-effort kind of thing, because registration is not the same...

I shopped a few different installers before I chose one, I was able to get samples of both the Suntek and the XPEL. The XPEL film is noticeably thicker. It's really all about the installer though, you want one who has been doing that for a while and are wiling to stand behind their work. The guy...

If you don't mind me asking, what happened to cause you to need a replacement already? Hit with road debris?

Curious specifically which powder/color that they used. I have a spare set of stock wheels I was able to acquire that I intend to be refinished. Looking at possibly some sort of bronze, or perhaps just a satin black. Seems like lots of fold on here used shops that use Prismatic Powders, so I'm...

Looking at all the pics on this thread and having trouble seeing the cracking. Perhaps I'm just not noticing the obvious. Was cleaning my car this morning though, and saw what appears to be a crack forming from the bottom of the passenger-side tail light and progressing upward. It could perhaps...

FWIW…I haven’t noticed any yellowing, however I have a Phantom colored Supra which has a hint of blue. I would think that adding a little yellow might cause areas of green, but that hasn’t happened. I have some uncovered paint in the door frame where I can compare side by side with and without...

FWIW...It cost me $219 to ship a set of these wheels from Florida to Texas via UPS Ground. I'm sure there will be some variance depending on buyer location, but you'll probably be in that ballpark to most of the continental US. Boxing/wrapping them up for shipment might be a pain, but I figure...

100% positive reaction to the car. On the road folk going out of their way to give a thumbs-up or other complimentary signal (approving nods included). I've had several folk want to take pictures with the car. A guy blocked me in at the gas station as I was about to leave, he was super nice and...

Guess I'm boring. I don't really plan to change anything significant. I did put on PPF (XPEL Stealth) with ceramic, installed a Perrin tow hook license plate kit for the required front plate (I bought a second tow hook cover to modify for this purpose and stored the untouched original), ended up...

Wait six minutes with the door closed and then look through the window to make sure it's off (it should be). Alternatively hold down the power/volume button on the radio panel for 3 seconds before you get out of the car. I like to lock my car even when parked in the garage so my mirrors fold...

Perhaps I just didn’t notice this behavior before. Although I definitely can use it once to open the garage when I first enter the car, but only once.

So I ordered the more expensive MirrorTap brand kit, to replace the cheaper one that Amazon sold me and broke. It’s all working now. Only strange thing now is once the car powers up when I get in the Homelink on the mirror will only work once until I actually start the engine. Must be a power...
