  1. DIY Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) Removal

    Agreed to both! There's this: https://ind-distribution.com/collections/m3-g80/products/rogue-engineering-g8x-m2-m3-m4-short-throw-clutch-pedal-arm But I don't know if it works on our cars (Z4 or Supra). I've been matching the M3/M4 forum but no one has said they've installed it yet. IND's...
  2. Replaced rear pads and sensor but not give the option to reset light

    Good to know, thanks. My MHD wifi adapter is supposed to arrive today. I have an old MHD adapter for another platform, and Carly adapters as well but they've fallen behind for the newer cars.
  3. ANOTHER OIL THREAD (Actual information doe)

    For the sake of a legit discussion, and not to prolong any agonies, it is this. I have the sticker on the underside of my hood saying as much. That's a good find. I've tried to see what was used in Europe for the Z4 but no luck.
  4. Aftermarket Wheel Weight Thread

    I tried getting the Fast FC04's for my Z4. It's hard to find these, they basically come out of Canada, and most places don't ship to the US. I eventually ordered from Toto Tires, they said they did ship to the US and Google maps showed they had an actual shop w/ cars out front and etc. so I...
  5. DIY Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) Removal

    I love the change, it's the 2nd Bimmer I've done it on. I found things a little too "slippy" going into 2nd, like I'd let off the pedal but it'd take a fraction of a second to finish engaging. CDV removed eliminated it.
  6. DIY Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) Removal

    It's for the brakes themselves. Clutch shares the same fluid. Get a turkey baster syringe thingy and keep it with the bleeder in the box so you can suck some fluid out if it gets too full after the job if needed. I keep everything in the box to help keep it clean.
  7. What should I expect to pay labor wise for a set of springs installed?

    2015, F25. I see you're in the "Midwest". If you're in the Twin Cities and can do it for pretty cheap, I might get lazy... I was going to gather all the parts and preassemble them over a few nights sometime this spring, then install the fronts and rears on separate occasions since I don't...
  8. What should I expect to pay labor wise for a set of springs installed?

    This post is timely, I'm planning to swap struts on all 4 corners of my X3 this summer. Just for fun I asked the local import specialist how much it would cost for them to do it, in case I felt lazy. $2,244 in labor alone! No parts or alignment in there. Obviously I'm not going to do it, I'll...
  9. DIY Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) Removal

    It's a bit late here but one of the things I do when bleeding brakes is to ensure the Motive pumps up and holds pressure before I start taking the wheels off the car. Something to keep in mind for any future work with a pressure bleeder. It's not a big mistake made here or anything, and I'm...
  10. Formula 1 Talk

    Yeah somewhere recently I heard Verstappen described as "metronomic".
  11. SUPRA + G80 WHEELS = ???

    Looks great! From Google, if others are curious. Seems like the fronts should work fine (ET20 instead of 32, but the Apex's are at 25, not too far off). But the rears are poking out a lot more than normal (ET20 instead of 40). Would explain the occasional rubbing. For the BMW M3 G80, the...
  12. BENT DRIVER SIDE INNER TIE ROD, HELP!!!!!!!!

    So.... tie rods don't spin with the wheel. And it's bent downwards. Thus, it can't be the anti-roll bar coming up and hitting it? Must be from above. The arm just above, that's the thrust / caster arm? Isn't it bolted to the hub, and shouldn't really be moving relative to the tie rod? Just...
  13. BENT DRIVER SIDE INNER TIE ROD, HELP!!!!!!!!

    Just to be clear, yes, the car is lowered, if you measure the frame to the tarmac. But it's not lowered from a suspension's viewpoint and would have no effect related to the various arms and such coming together. From the bent tie rod standpoint, the wheel and tire sizes have no effect...
  14. Are SPL Parts Trash?

    I hate to ask a question that's already been answered, but: https://verklineusa.com/products/was-410 Wanted to ask that these have indeed improved road feel through the steering wheel for people? Really noticeable, or does one have to convince themselves a little bit that they feel it to...
  15. BENT DRIVER SIDE INNER TIE ROD, HELP!!!!!!!!

    That would be basically identical to a 255/35 on a 19" wheel, which I believe is stock size ont he rear. The 255/35 on a 19" wheel for the front is actually smaller and so a 275/40 on an 18" is actually a little bit bigger overall. So the overall diameter is the same and if it did play a role in...
  16. BENT DRIVER SIDE INNER TIE ROD, HELP!!!!!!!!

    Usually the tire sidewall goes up accordingly, and the overall diameter remains the same (or at least as close as possible). Is that not the case in the supra world, people drop the wheel diameters but keep the tire sidewalls the same? That would be... odd, but possible. What size tires are...
  17. ANOTHER OIL THREAD (Actual information doe)

    It's all good. I was actually coming back to see if I could delete my post altogether, because, you know, why bother, but it's too late.
  18. ANOTHER OIL THREAD (Actual information doe)

    Yeah, I did notice your post #2 here and then calling out other people later on. I guess you're right about posting info then people not being able to help themselves. So, that video showed what, that Liqui Moly is a bad oil? Use your words, I'm sure you can do it. If you're trying to imply...
  19. ANOTHER OIL THREAD (Actual information doe)

    Not sure what to make of all the above. So is there a suggestion that weight is not important? Ever watched the same oil geek's videos showing how the pour points are affected at temps some of us see every morning during the winter? 20W50 is OK in your B58 in MN in January? Is there also a...
  20. ANOTHER OIL THREAD (Actual information doe)

    The list clearly shows "technically suitable" oils for a B58. And it shows "Recommended" oils. Some of you are going with the technically suitable list, others either the recommended list. Seems as long as people have the information to decide which side of that fence to be on, they should all...
