The rear speakers are not the problem, the signal is. Set the speakers to full rear fade and you will see, they do not do much because they are being told not to do much.

Unless I’m missing your meaning, the panel in the bottom grill is for the cruise control sensor.

Did they edit the title or something?

Not to be a dick here, but take the positives from this, as the negatives will eat you up. You learned to avoid overpaying. The market is not always right, bubbles exist and they always pop. It may take work to get the price you are looking for, but patience and perseverance can remove a lot...

Do you use rain X or similar on the glass? Wax the glass? Either way, I’d try a hard wipe down with iso alcohol. You may have some oil from production / cleaning left on the windshield.

You got roughly $2 / mile off from list. I think you made the right choice there vs getting a 2.0. Congrats.

They say they will warranty for three years IIRC. That is probably why.

I feel better now that I read this. It is late and “I like meth” went way over my head after binge watching Tiger King. :doh:

I run an aftermarket amp fed from the wires feeding the woofers and they do have a low pass on them. If I had to guess, it is crossing over around 120 Hz give or take as by 200-220 Hz when running sweeps, my amp would shut off if it was using the speaker signal for power on. I don’t think...

All are traceable. The only issue is how much work it will be and the level of certainty. It is harder to trace than a flash, that is certain. Just because some who sell these say they are untraceable does not make it true. Read up on piggybacks and warranty on BMW forums. They have...

So they have no project engineers, other executives, test drivers, etc? This seems to work well for other companies.

His concern is warranty loss though, so for him it may not be okay.

They can count flashes. If you need a trans replacement or an engine rebuild, that will be checked and the warranty denied. There is also backend logging of operating parameters that isn’t wiped as well. Small stuff you should be okay, large items you will cry if BMW forums are anything to go by.

It would have been smarter to say that with the new suspension setup being stiffer, there is more frame stress so that the additional supports provide greater benefit. Toyota has an army of PR and none of them thought about what to say ahead time on these changes?

They are $30 from BMW. Install them and see. I will say not one person who has installed those or the Cusco set and also tracks has complained about them that I have read. I think Tada is full of shit and if I was Toyota, I’d genuinely be trying to limit his exposure to the media. It is...

This right here. I’ve been doing this for awhile now. Ceramic coating and a good blower makes drying a breeze.

I’ve thought of going a bit darker if I had to do it again so I don’t think you will regret it.

The cost of the active one is crazy. Which downpipe are you using? No tune?

IIRC, settings, System settings, tone, equalizer

Great breakdown. I was thinking of doing one but I start tearing it apart and I think how much additional work it would be and just plug away instead. Glad your more disciplined than me. I think some of the mud is from the amp and 4” speakers. I don’t think the factory amp has a good power...
