I coded my F30 for the first time this week. I disabled disclaimers, seatbelt reminders, auto start stop, the trip computer reset, speed correction, and the double pull unlock. I changed logos and increased the brightness of the angel eyes. I activated folding mirrors, digital speed display, video in motion, easy entry/exit, and radio/nav off on exit. I also upgraded the navigation map, installed floating center caps, and added a compact spare tire.

Solid day!

133,500-mile oil/filter change and tire rotation. Also took a coolant shower while replacing the water pump on the family's N54 E90 to address a leak. Realized the chargepipe wasn't fully clipped in to the IC so I fixed that too. Long day on my back ending up dirty, greasy, and wet.

Next project will be the low pressure fuel sensor on that car.

Wrapped the V brace using decaldino precut vinyls. After the previous trainings, I am finally able to remove the grills easily , thus took me just a few minutes. Very happy with the result, as the visual effect is even better than I hoped for.

I had retrofitted my f30 hifi sound system and upgraded m steering wheel to f80 m3 original alcantara and f80 f1 paddle shifts 😎

Installed a 2tb SAT shifter today. Gotta order a replacement glass though. Couple tiny cracks I didnt see in the pics when I bought it. No biggie. I like how it looks with the anthracite fine wood and matching the leather on the e brake

Yeah, you got it! My 428i is only a B class car, but hey, it's a level X999 in my heart.

Bilstein B14s and Ground Control Camber plates installed. Wow the ride is FIRM compared to M Sport suspension. Not sure how long I'll keep it like this.

Are the b14's really that uncomfortable?

I'm doing the same thing next week. I ordered from Decaldino on Ebay. Any hints?

If the roads where you live aren't absolutely perfect I'd stay away. They get pretty harsh through the rough stuff.

Otherwise they're not too bad. Suspension is highly subjective however so YMMV.

You don't like them, too firm? I have heard good things about B14, almost got them but found a great deal on KW V1 at the last minute.

Thanks - I removed the assembly from the car, no fender hits, but I always tape up when working on suspension stuff as ya just never know. I can go that way next time, I wasn't sure how stuck they'd be - I soaked in PB Blaster a couple days beforehand.
