Yeah I ended up coming across another thread after this one. Seems like a norm for BMWs. Probably going to order the OBD plug tonight. Although part of me wants to keep the speed like that to avoid tickets ?
Not to high jack this thread but does any one else notice their speed reads about 2-3 mph fast? I've noticed this passing those speed trap signs. On two different signs my speedo will say 40mph but the sign will say 37mph.
I've had other cars where it differed by about 1 mph but 3 seems excessive
When I got my car the brakes did squeak like you are describing for the first few hundred miles along with that new brake pad break in burning smell. But I'd say it was gone with in the first week of driving.
The first time I drove with it I was an nervous wreck, but now I have about 4-5 drives with it and I am growing more trust in it.
I hit about 95mph with the bike on the car on Saturday with no issues.
haha this suction cups are just a tad bit stronger, just a tad....
But in all seriousness, if I were to just leave them on the car for days without touching them they too would eventually lose their suction. The built in pumps on them that create the suction actually double as a "suction meter"...
Oh trust me I know, I want to have my cake and eat it too ?
I owned and FRS for 6 years and managed to shove my bikes in the trunk through the back seats with them down fairly easily. Even though the FRS and Supra are very close in size the FRS has waaaay more room inside.
Well if it makes you feel any better I had my 40lb e-bike on it the other day and it was solid for an hour drive both ways.
Try mounting your bike like I did. Flip around the front one and get two of those cups on the windshield. It will be a million times more stable.
Yeah I def have. I've only done 3 trips with it so far though so I'm sure ill get plenty more ?
I'm still getting used to the attention that this car gets in general.
Prior to getting my Supra about 3 weeks ago, I was doing a ton of research about carrying a MTB either in or on the car. I really couldn't find much on the topic on here or anywhere for that matter. So the day I closed the deal on the car I decided order the Sea Sucker Talon as it seemed to be...
I had NSRT4 as well. Made a little over 400 to the wheels and I would scare the living hell out of people with my BOV. Had the Turbo XS RFL.
I do miss that car sometimes. Super fun but hated things always breaking on it.
Same here, I've only had the car a little over two weeks now and its happened to me at least twice.
Almost feels like when you bog the take off on a manual car.
