What did you do for your M3 today?

First wash since it was delivered last fall. Took it for a dry off spin around the block and a couple pics. Looking forward to the winter upgrade list on this extremely humid day.

I must be lucky with the path of the sun or whatever cause it stays cool here (no cooling), but we're a good 10-15 degrees less than you on hot days. Oh and I went for the more expensive garage door with insulation. Must help!

Is your garage insulated? I am 15 min away from David and its boiling, need to finish the garage.

Ya it's hot out today. I stepped outside and promptly went back to the garage lol

I’m working in the garage… without cooling. It must be 115 degrees in here.

Oil change because I was bored… but also look at this temp!

Love me a good projector upgrade, what did you go with?

Sanvi's, Grant is doing the install and Kaiv (Kevin from San Diego) is doing the QA. Very happy with the output, cameras can't capture the enormous change from Xenons

Replaced VANOS solenoid with Beisan rebuilt one after getting p0011 code. Sealing plate seals were plastic, as well as one of the gaskets on the restrictor valve.

Washed it up a bit.

I've started down the slippery slope of a CSL interior… bought this Vorsteiner 1x1 console without the switch cutout but have the stencil in case I decide to go down that path.

Any reason why you went with this one over the others? Might be going down that slippery slope as well shortly. Just need to get my exterior CSL bits installed first.

Ran LiquiMoly engine flush during an oil change
changed oil filter gasket and the oil sensor
Got a P0011, swapping out the Solenoid with Beisan rebuilt one on Monday.

the P0128 code didn't go away so I decided to change out the thermostat, since I had one on hand.

I pulled off the thermostat housing and found thermostat parts lol.


It looks like the bent tab snapped off (hopefully it is inside the radiator) and the rest of the thermostat disassembled itself. The stamp on it says "01 15" so I'm guessing it's made in 2015.

While I was in there, I installed a few of the high temp o-rings from WOLFN8TR's kit.

Put it all together, put some new coolant back in, fired it up, checked for leaks, reset the code, and now it's ready for the drive cycle to get the readiness monitors ready.
