Good to know. What I guess you're saying is the ECS aftermarket part has the lines, and the eBay one I bought is a knock off of the knock off........

I just had my cooling system worked on (expansion tank, hoses and thermostat) and decided to have the dealer do a detail job as well. They detailed my wife's 535i earlier this month and did a great job, so I decided to go for it. Usually I do this sort of thing myself. Well, the folks at Medford BMW did an amazing job on my car. It came back looking like new! I guess that's why the owner of a blue McLaren had their car detailed there. Plus they throw in a spa appointment for the owner as well, so my wife gets another trip to the masseuse.
Win!

Hey! That's my car! Even the short sport antennae! Very nice

Thanks and likewise. I really like the car...it has 61K on it and I've owned it for almost two years. What a blast.
i got my AC recharged earlier this week. it was blowing hot air and it has been in the mid 90s this week. no bueno. blowing cold again. i had the shop put a dye in with the freon so we can pinpoint the leak. i figure recharging 1-2x per year at ~$150 a pop is still cheaper than dropping $2500-3k for a new condenser.
also topped up oil. since switching to Shell Rotella 5w-40 Diesel oil, the consumption is not as bad, about one quart so far in about 1700 miles.

A friend of mine had the same issue with his zhp, but he needed to refill it every week. He was quoted $2500ish by the dealership and he agreed to pay it but when all was said and done the dealership gave him a huge discount and he only had to pay $1100ish...

$150 a pop yeesh. I did my own the other day. I got three cans for $20 and already had a trigger hose from doing a friends car a while back. It was certainly sketchy without the proper equipment that a shop has, but I was confident in my method.
