I can confirm that mounting a valentine v1 gen 2 on the headliner by the mirror via a visor mount will pick up radar from all directions. Looks super clean and well hidden.
Nice find! Makes me feel even better. I'm sure there are more out there with issues, but I figured there would be a lot more noise if it was affecting more people. I'll keep my fingers crossed but I'm feeling pretty good today.
I'm not convinced it's a lot. I've seen approximately 20 ish folks between here and five different Facebook groups reporting issues (out of hundreds sold). A few of them were also not 100% sure as they were down below the maximum line, but no where near minimal either. One guy was at 5k miles on...
Hey bud. Now that you've run this puppy for a bit, how is it doing for picking up rear radar in that location? I'm about to follow your lead as my v2 arrived this weekend. Thanks.
Yes. I pick it up tomorrow, I hope. Parts were a bit delayed in shipping so I got a late start. It's been in the shop all week so I'm pretty excited haha. I'll post a report once I have it back.
Fair enough. Apologies if I came across as being a jerk. I have the jb4 on my 21 so I can only comment on that which I know isn't super helpful. I'm sure someone will chime in soon as this forum is pretty good at helping one another.
I implied absolutely nothing. I merely suggested a search to broaden your scope for answers. As for making assumptions, try staring into a mirror. Best of luck in your findings.
I'm considering ordering a Fuel-it flex sensor so I can run e30 full time. Researching it to see if it's something I want to do or not. I have e85 all over the place so it's tempting.
No offense taken here, bud. This is why I made a post looking for suggestions. Wheels arrived before I had a chance to order so they got installed with the appointment time I had slotted. Tires are ordered and go on tomorrow. I can't speak for other owners but this one doesn't ignore the finer...
Here you go! I just ordered 305/30s for the rear. Now to decide if I keep the 255s in the front or move the rear 275s up front instead :hmm:
The front tires don't stretch that badly tbh. The rears I couldn't stand lol.
I know a couple of fellas who have 21s and said to hell with it and put a heavier oil in their cars. Neither have had any issue at all and both are at or past 10k. They said they know the risks of running "non spec" oil if anything does happen but also say it's what bmw runs on their B58s and...
Edit: ordered 305/30s for the rear. Now do I move the 275s from the rear to the front or keep the 255s :hmm: I posted a few pics two posts down for visuals. Thanks again.
Hey folks. I just put on my new BC forged wheels yesterday evening and used the stock tires for the time being as I wasn't...
