Narrator: "It was, indeed, fuel starvation after a right hander".

I had the same error on a trackday this Weds. Mine is a B48. "Limp" went away before getting out of track, let the car cool down before the following session and it behaved properly for the rest of the day. About half a tank. All right handers bar one :D but I'm not even remotely fast. Been on...

I use them on motorbikes. I have 3 hooked up. They did their job for the last 6 years to be honest. And I'm in the UK, so not a massive amount of sun all the time. :D You might want to do some calculation over battery capacity, but probably a 40 or 80W (not the stuff you put on the dashboard)...

Just, for the record, and if it can be useful to others... I did fit the wheels and new tyres. I decided to go for 285 at the rear, after a quick test. As suggested by Apex (thanks again for the knowledge share!) there is a fairly mild stretch. Not terribly far off from the OEM PSS rear, to be...

Thanks! I'mma transfer the originals from the OEM wheels to these new ones. I'll keep these for the spare set then.

Bumping the thread. I am setting up a new set of wheels for my car. Will keep the OEM wheels for winter tyres. I purchased some 433Mhz sensors on eBay. Sold as original BMW, used, but never fitted. They came in (opened) BMW boxes and plastic bag, but when we fitted one at the tyre place, it...

Thanks. Apologies guys, small update on this. When I wrote the opening post I was in Europe. As I assumed the headlights beam would not change, I didn't bother to change the setting in the head unit this time. (I changed the setting previously on all my European trips, lots of them). After...

As an European, this is fairly funny to read.

Thank you! Especially for the pics.

Actually, hold that thought about what I said regarding OEM wheels and tyres.. Found both tyres (OEM sizes on OEM 2.0 wheels) and stretch is roughly the same. I must have imagined that last bit, sorry :D and the pss: For the new ones, ok I'll go a bit wider still, at the rear.

Thank you so much!

Oh really? Thanks for the heads up. No, the rims are still in their boxes. I won't install them on the car for a month or two at least, so plenty of time to order the correct tyres. Thanks a lot! I gather the PS4S are naturally on the "narrower" side then? If I remember correctly, on OEM 2.0...

I purchased a set of GTC02s. Front and rear are half an inch larger than the original wheels: so, 9.5" and 10.5". I don't want (and really do not need) wider tyres generally. Enkei says that you can use the original sizes (255/35 19 and 275/35 19) on those wheels, but I'd rather not have even...

Yep. I think I know what you are talking about!

Hi! That's a lot of work. Also, very envious of the skillsets ;) Cool stuff. Most probably not. Had a similar conversation around motorbikes as someone I know installed aftermarket radar at the back of their bikes (it is a thing!) and I insisted that – at least on a bike where you don't have...

Thank you! Ok, it's massive faff. Will live without :)

I think I already know the answer to this, but hey... let's validate on the forum. My car didn't come with the package that includes parking sensors and blind spot monitors. Now, I'm in the UK, so RHD car. Most of my driving is in Europe, other side of the road. Given the car's limited view at...

Yeah, same. UK: same for this too :D

It does not. As explained by razorlab above. Mechanical speedos instead, especially on bikes... another story :)
