Ahhh ok. Are those the ZHP bushings though?
Not going with anything from Meyle. I've heard too many stories of their products being poor quality.

Nothing except for looking up new FCAB's to be replaced. Are these the right ones?

Went to auto couture (BMW shop that specializes in mostly modifying) in my town and ordered a new ZHP knob and for the hell of it, got an alcantara shift boot to go with it. My shift boot is grey...
Noticed what sounded like a vacuum leak under the hood and pin pointed it to the disa valve. That and the car was having stuttering acceleration lately around 2.5k. Turns out I didn't tighten it up...
Changed the oil today and right as the drain plug comes off a huge gust of wind blows and sprays oil all over the inner wheel, control arm, cat, inner fender, and of course driveway. I was so pissed...
Well it worked great the first time. I guess I won't be doing it again, but on the bright side I no longer have to clean the crap out of my wheels now. I'll just have to keep it that way. Maybe buy...
Anyone ever use a Brillo pad to clean your rims? I had some real nasty brake dust that was caked on for awhile and had to get it off. The freakin thing worked perfectly. My rims look better than I've...
Had a nice snow storm today. Tested out my new conti DWS tires. Gotta say I'm impressed. Drove without DSC with an inch of snow and handled it fine. I then went in a big empty lot to mess around......
Replaced my coolant expansion tank cap with a new one since the old one was leaking. Easiest fix I've done yet haha.
That's a relief! Assuming that's the problem. I was expecting a new tank or coolant system refresh. I hope that's the only problem... I'll check the O ring first.
Noticed a small coolant leak a few days ago. Checked it today and found this:

I'm assuming that's coolant on the expansion...
Replaced my lower intake hose. You guys were right. It was a bitch! I ended up removing a lot of stuff to get at it....On the plus side, the car runs great! Pulls harder and other than a bit of the...
My MPG gauge reads 21.5 but I definitely think its more like 19. Verts are just bad for gas.
That looks so nice. Love the cupholder delete as well.
Bought some ceramic pads for the front since the brake pad light came on. Hopefully these ones will have less brake dust...
Anyone notice that more brake dust accumulates as the pads get to the...
That setup looks sick dude!
Installed my new personal plates.

The other day I checked if my lower intake hose was cracked after 72k. Looked perfectly fine and was pleasently surprised. Next time I'll probably clean the ICV.
Its $44 for me :)
The DIY looks easy enough so I might as well do it.
So I dont need it replaced?
Got a SES light last night so today I did some research on how my K&N filter may have caused it (after finding that out here). So I bought some CRC MAF cleaner and cleaned it out. Still had the SES...
great. Are AFE intakes not the same?
Went to pep boys to get a quart if oil for the MINI, ended up leaving with a K&N filter for the ZHP as well. The intake noise seems to sound deeper/throatier at higher RPM's. Pretty happy.
Well ooobbvvviously you have to make a video.
Decided on a personal plate. Was going to either get "NOT N M" or "Z 8CH P". I decided on the latter.
