Time to drain and flush Thermocure. 5 days, car smelled like a sewer/wet dog. Couldn’t park it in the garage 😂
Total of 9 flushes before coolant refill. First couple were dirt black, I guess it’s iron phosphate with a bunch of sand like and bigger chunks flushing out. Pretty wild to be honest.

What did you do for your M3 today?

Finished up my audio upgrades.
Bluebus all tidied up and did some of the comfort updates. Nice.
Bavsound speakers installed. Another nice improvement.
Next & hopefully last project while the weather is warm are the side window weather stripping replacements.
And trying to decide how deep I want to go with changes this winter. Might make another post about that later...

Flushing my cooling system with thermocure to remove rust particles I’ve found during water pump change. Hoping it will solve my overheating problem when AC is on. I am thinking radiator and cooling channels maybe partially blocked. Have to drive for a week with it in the cooling system.

Damn $100 alignments are still a thing? Here in the Bay Area all the good shops are $200-$250 with some shops that are like $300-$400.Originally posted by 6speedS54 View PostAlignment, front was really off after rubber boot replacement. Rear was off as well, perhaps after I installed GC shock mounts?.
Anyone in the SFV, highly recommend Alabama Alignment shop on Canoga and Sherman Way. $100Last edited by simon_c; 08-11-2025, 04:38 PM.

Dealing with FCP and the headlight lens they sent twice both had defects. These are genuine OEM. I get one lens but twice? Jeez.

I can see that 2 of the walls are finished, so I assume there's insulation. One side is unfinished. I'm 25 mins north on 101 and it cools down luckily.Originally posted by 6speedS54 View Post
Is your garage insulated? I am 15 min away from David and its boiling, need to finish the garage.
