Is there a stock oem setting?

https://occamsracers.com/2023/11/12/what-do-canards-do/ This was an interesting read on canards!

how does the front end feel with the canards?

What a convenient marshmallow-roasting tune - such a good fall camping car. :)

Found one. Thanks everyone.

Confirmed. front outer left is number 2 in picture Loosened hardware holding bumper, partial removal of one side of bumper gave easy access to side wiring to disconnect, then to parking sensor to disconnect. small amounts of dielectric grease made removing clips and sensors so much easier… i...

Yes - all the work - in a condo garage / collect tools, go down to the garage, set up, remove license plate, remove bolts, remove bumper, sensors, test sensors, clean and grease, refit, align, etc etc then collect stuff and go back upstairs. Not having a garage sucks.

These are two left sensors. The black L shaped is the front left. And the brown is the most L beside the wheel arch. I pulled out a multimeter and both had similar resistances.

Took off the bumper. Lots of little stuff. Tape off the lights to avoid scratches. Took 3+ hours - just annoying. Not hard. played with the sensors and cleaned and used dielectric grease. Didnt help still have front outer left sensor blindness and no radar :( to confirm before i order a part...

Does the 2$ elevator bolt from Home Depot and a couch leg rubber pad still work as a BMW clutch stop? cough cough

Apologies to slide this in with pad discussion… Are you tracking guys using the master cylinder brace? Never heard of this issue with bmws before.. but if it helps firm the high speed initial brake softness and bite, I’d be interested, or is this a pad and rotor issue? Thanks!

You’re a gem and such a great resource, seriously. Thank you.

I feel this is a gold nugget of information - would your opinion still be the same now in 2025? For 2021+ cars? Thanks!

What are your opinions on the Endless Brake Lines vs Turners - I had turners on my bmws before - and a master cylinder brace (?). Thanks!

There's a thread showing the correct places to tap using "Mirror Plug Wire Tap Kit" - then the dash cam turns off and won't draw continuously off the battery. These taps are super easy to use - especially if you already took things apart to try the Dongar kit. I cut the wire from the dongar kit...

Thanks for this reassurance!!!! I needed that! @Rensuhlo I see on Ebay there are a number of sensors for sale from Germany at a reasonable price...

Great tips. i cleaned today with isopropyl alcohol then around the edges of the rubber housing. No luck.

I never had the bumper painted or anything. I’m the second owner. I put on the tow hook license plate that the prior owner used and adjusted the plate until the parking sensor worked. Then after getting a second key made for the car, the sensor / radar worked intermittently until it didn’t. Il...

Would you have some great pics like these of the front wheel spats and fender lips? Did they change the front lip and underneath it? Thank you.

So the Whitelines front sway bar on soft is in. Significantly heavier than stock hollow front. Now that I was accustomed to the oem roll this front sway bar change ?20% feels after one of my usual spirited drives: - like a significant reduction on body roll - slight increase resistance to...
