BMWCurve's Sibling's 2003 BMW 330Xi M Sport Canadian Maintenance Ledger

I would suspect the tires especially if they are getting worn or are mismatched. Also, certain brands just seem to tramline on these cars.

That's my feeling. As I said, they're just some weird cheap brand of tire so I suggest she switch them to something else.

Also realized last night that her right headlight washer cap is missing. She should order one (61677066848) or try to find one used from a part out car.

Try to find one the same color at the junk yard. if you buy a new one, you'll have to get it painted

Yup. Sadly, I leave in two weeks and won't be around to look around for my sister, and she doesn't have any time with her job.

Car crossed 80,429 miles and still humming along nicely, according to my sister. The undercarriage cover (part no 51718265985) is still not mounted and is missing the mounting hardware, which I need to figure out. RealOEM isn't too helpful oddly enough. It shows the clips, but has grayed out the actual bolts/screws.

I have a whole bag of clips somewhere, let me know if you need some...

I wonder if these are the same screws:

Updates?

I've checked in with my sister but she's a busy bee so haven't heard too much. Currently though:

• There was some concern with a check engine light coming on. As far as I recall it had to do with a misfire code although my sis says it ran smoothly. Not sure how that turned out. There was some talk of a minor leaking head gasket, but who knows
• She lost one of hear headlamp washer covers so I bought her a pair off of a part out car. Not sure if she installed it.
• She has a Bimmian Bracket and a magnet cell phone mount that I'll help install when I get home.

That's all I know for now. I plan to have a more complete update when I'm home.

Tried to initiate the driver's side airbag recall through two local dealers but the car is still listed as Canadian in BMW NA's system so I started the ball rolling on getting a letter of compliance so that they could complete any and all recalls here in the US.
