Where my finger is, thereās 2 extra blocks behind the dust cover.
I feel like the resistance will cause damage to the assembly. Itās definitely not healthy to have them kept in.
Lately I was beginning to notice a rather large wheel gap. I finally found the culprit. Keyes Toyota in Van Nuys forgot to remove the shipping spacers for some reason. 2200 miles later and Iām worried I might have damaged something. Whatās the best course of action with something like this? This...
I had that same sound at one point, but it hasnt occurred for me in a while. This noise I'm talking about, sounds like it's coming from the drivetrain, sorta like something engaging. It's a singular audible click, rather than a continous click or tap.
I've started noticing a light singular click noise that occurs when I come to a complete stop. For some reason this only occurs in Sports mode, and doesn't happen with it turned off. It happened briefly upon acceleration at one point, but now it's purely when I come to a complete stop. Has...
I refer to it as the A91 because of the revisions, which I think are substantial enough to be considered an A91 as a platform (B58D motor, suspension tweaks, chassis rigidity). Toyota called it an A91 edition, but I think it's stupid to call it that just for a color change, interior color...
Sooooooo, I went to the BMW dealerships in my area, and asked to start the Z4 m40i and the m340i, they all sounded exactly the same as my car. To add, the M2 comp sounded worse.
I feel better now.
It's not as extreme as the video shows. Hereās a clip of mine.
yeah Iām going 5w-30 for my next oil change. I feel like itās wastegate rattle since it only reallly happens at start up, and light accel. Once it warms up, it goes away, and canāt be heard when you rev. Really odd, probably a...
So I found a video that closely resembles the sound at start up. Sounds like it's wastegate rattle for sure. Is this a normal thing to expect from a B58?
Video I mentioned:
Yeah, I plan to keep this car for a while,
Yeah, I plan to keep the car for a while. I asked the finance manager if I could purchase it after the fact, and he said it would have to be done at the time of signing. So I pulled the trigger on it. I'll just cancel now, and get it after the factory...
Yeah, and it's not a simple upgrade, they changed the dang engine code haha. I looked everywhere for an A91 edition, but every dealer kept saying they sold their only one for like a 20-30k mark up, and that I couldn't order them. Still love my car though.
I purchased the extended Toyota Platinum protection to extend the warranty 6 years /100000 miles for $2650 and the Tire protection/60 months for $1300.
Seeing that this is a BMW platform, I expect electronics issues sometime in its lifetime, but im not sure if it's justifying the extra cost at...
I know toyota gives the 25k service for free, but I don't trust the techs since it's pretty much a BMW platform which requires specific care. Can anyone recommend a shop for general servicing, near OC?
The turbo can be heard spooling, I think itās the wastegate rattling. Just kinda bothers me, since those chatters never really go away, and I feel it makes the car sound like it has an issue lol
