Thanks for the reply! Do you mind sharing the link for the belt you bought? I found a 6PK1163 from Goodyear but have no idea what their part's reliability is like since most belts I've seen in euro cars are made by Continental: https://a.co/d/0hBhsiYT

I finally got around to getting this installed by my local shop on my 2020 car, but noticed there’s now vibration/unsteadiness from the engine especially when it’s under load in the higher RPMs (~3000-5000 range) so I have a couple follow-ups if you don’t mind. 1. Which part number damper did...

Hey! Quick question on this: why the longer serpentine belt? I may have to buy this dampener myself if my dealer still doesn't budge on investigating my issue (despite having the platinum warranty crap).

There was a thread on this a while back, but it's WoolyWormit all day for me. Great for the barrels and the lug nuts then use your microfiber mit for the faces. https://a.co/d/i5Y4soG

Shoot I somehow missed those on Tire Rack. Did you keep the OEM sizing or did you change?

Yeah I'm planning on going from the Super Sports to 4S and then eventually something similar to the Toyo R888r's once I gain some more confidence on the track.

Couple questions for the folks who've widened the front tires (specifically for the stock rims): - How much did you widen the front tires by? - Did you notice any loss in feel or responsiveness? - Any benefits felt from widening the fronts? I'm overdue to replace my OEM tires and have been...

Had no idea this was a thing! Might have to seriously consider especially if I see one for a good price.

I agree, still have a ways to ago in understanding this car and learning its limits on the track, especially when it comes to taking the right lines and braking more efficiently. So like you said I'm just gonna save the money for some more instructed track days. But yeah the caveman brain also...

Really appreciate everyone's feedback and I really appreciate your breakdown for coilovers. I'm totally fine with just sticking with new rubber (albeit slightly wider) and eventually new pads once I'm finished wearing the current one's down. Definitely open to coilovers in the future once I...

Hey ya'll, just wrapped up my third track event this past weekend. First two events were great in learning the car's manners on the track and becoming a smoother driver. Just before the third event I upgraded the rear traction arms and toe links via Megan Racing. Definitely noticed better feel...

Did you notice it more when you had the A/C running? I'll need to drive my car a couple more times to pinpoint the sound before taking it to the dealer but I could almost swear it was coming from around the area where the alternator/compressor/drive belt live. I'll try to see if my car can...

Just double checking, but did you hear this whine when you pulled away from a light? Did it feel like you lost a little power for a second? I'm trying to diagnose a similar whine with my 2020 and want to get it sorted before the warranty is out. Also how often did it happen? I tried having my...

Thanks! I've been trying to replicate it more lately and on my way home yesterday it almost felt like the belt was slipping since the car felt weak for a moment while pulling away from the lights.

Hey ya'll lately I've been hearing a whining noise from the engine every now and then when I'm getting on the throttle. Almost sounds like those old beaten cars you hear drive by on the street. Car is bone stock and sitting around 35k miles. I've had it for over four years now and don't know if...

On year 4 now. Definitely tried to grab a newer model before the lease was up, but alas the colors keep disappearing and I know I'll never get the same price. Only car to convince me to sell would be a well spec'd GT4.

Yeah I had to scoot the seat forward a tad so I could even recline further (not great when your legs are long) but I could at least sit comfortably looking out straight. Unfortunately I still hardly have any ability to turn my head. I assume it’s also normal to not be able to lean your head back?

Heading to my first HPDE tomorrow. Got a new helmet a couple weeks ago but when I tried it on inside the car the other day the gap between the top of my helmet and the roof is pretty tight (barely a finger’s width). I’m around 6’ 2 ish so spacing was definitely a concern when I got a helmet but...

Okay great, that's what I was confused about. Topped it up exactly the same and so far so good I'm a little convinced my cap might be bad (which is apparently a common issue) as there's quite a bit of dried up residue on the threads.

Hey Guys, got a low coolant notification the other day and wanted to double check what the procedure is for topping it off. I see in the manual that we just top off the reservoir and cap it, but the actually coolant bottle from BMW specifies to run the engine with the coolant cap off until it...
