126700 miles, oil change, replaced all 6 ignition coils and oil separator. BUT I think the valve cover stud bolt near the VANOS sheared, I didn’t even tighten it much. Guess something else to fix when I change the valve cover gasket 😂
Working on a manual conversion. Just got the RMS replaced with a Corteco part, but I’ve got a gap on the dust seal lip on the passenger side. Not liking it. The seal is seated evenly in the housing, installed and torqued per TIS, and it’s been a few hours in case the seal need to relax after stretching around the plastic installation bushing.
is that the Intake Air filter? It might be a little cold in the garage?
Hah, yes!
I'll get a build thread going on it, but this new-to-me car has gotta Active Autowerke SC on it. SCs are new to me (my first forced induction outside of a F350 Dually) but I'm pretty sure this could use a more well executed air filtration solution. If nothing else, something with more flow, larger, and not immediately in the path of water.
Confirm that it fits the M3? Brother that's just a circular section off pipe with some gimmicky crap that doesn't work in it. Also, if it's on your car, why are you trying to confirm that it fits? It obviously fits. If it is on you car, you need to take it off immediately and replace it with the OEM part, or you'll rightfully be laughed out of any car meet or shop.
Thanks for the pro tip. That truly is my worst fear, getting laughed out of a car meet up.
