Hi, Any good places in Phoenix to get lowering springs installed? Thanks!

So I have 33k miles on the original Michelin Pilot Super Sports and looking to replace them. This is my daily driver around town. I want to try new tires, but it seems comparable tires lack the steering feel (which I define as how quickly and precisely the tires respond to steering inputs) of...

Hi, So the car is notifying me that the rear brakes need to be changed in 1,400 miles. The dealership wants $380 plus tax. 2 questions: 1. Any thoughts on having the dealer do it or are there any other reputable shops in the Phoenix area you recommend? 2. Do the rotors need to be replaced...

Hi. I am thinking of manually disconnecting whatever controls the sport exhaust so the valve is open all the time. Before I do this, some questions for anyone who has lived with this “mod” for any length of time: 1. Is it worth it? 2. Are you seeing ANY unintended problems (e.g., a CEL) with...

Hi. Just curious: can anyone show me some dyno results for the stock B48? I know it’s rated at 255HP/295ftlbs but BMW is known to under rate their engines. I’ve searched this forum and others but cannot find anything that is clear. Thanks!

Hi Everyone, I have heard that the factory charge pipe is plastic and can crack and cause engine problems over time. Is this true? If yes, any suggestions about the number of miles when it’s probably time for replacement? Is it a fairly easy DIY? The car is bone stock with 16k miles and a...

Hi Everyone. I did my first oil change on the 2.0 today (dealer did several previously). Here are a few tips/things I learned: 1. The oil filter housing takes a 27mm socket, NOT the the 32mm for the 3.0. 2. To find the front center jacking point more easily, I used 3" high Race Ramps to see...

I am considering the JB+ for the 2.0. Before I purchase it, the folks at Burger Tuning have asked me the following question: How many wires does your TMAP sensor have, 3 or 4? Do any of our 2.0 experts know? Thanks!

So the silver trunk brace right behind the rear seats us making a rattling/clicking noise. When I hold the brace it goes away. It also goes away if I position my seat just right but that does not seem to be a reliable solution. If you have solved this annoying issue, can you share what you did...

Hi, This may be the dumbest question ever: how do you turn the car off? (I can already hear the responses, "Well, just whisper to it how much you love it on the first date or tell it how much money you make”) In the "Doors/Keys" option in the menu, I have the box checked that says something...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone with a 2.0 has done a just a resonator delete as their only mod that would affect the exhaust sound. If yes, what changes did you notice? Videos are appreciated! I cannot find much out there on 2.0 resonator deletes. Thanks

Hi just bought a 2022 red 2.0 and I was wondering if any 2.0 owners did the NASA track day? If you did, how did the car do (e.g., any issues with brake fade, going in limp mode, tire issues, or anything else)? Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences!
