What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

It looks as if I have been keyed. Shreds of paint can be found on the trunk and there looks to be multiple attempts to scratch that corner quarter panel. It's not a hit and run since there does not appear to be any impact. "Crazy ex-girlfriend status..."

Wow. You have full coverage at least?

Oh no she didn't!

I would be willing to bet that one of the little pins on the side of the bulb broke, allowing the connector to start to fall off... Over time, it tried to fire, making good enough connection to eork, but clearly shorting through the bulb base as well. Eventually it came completely off and what you see is what's left. Replace the bulb, make sure it's seated well, and be done with it. I have a few spare OEM bulbs if you need one...

Damn Jay, I'm really sorry to hear that, there's no reason for people to pull shit like that. Hope insurance takes care of you. Might want to look into that dashcam setup like some people have.

Today's update for me... 4 days of taking it easy "post-vasectomy" have led to two really dirty cars... Ugh... Eventually I have to get out and detail them both.

My e90 went to the mechanic on a flat bed. I didn't drive it for 2 weeks and then I noticed a big oily spot under her. I decided to play it safe and use my AAA membership for the tow truck. The mechanic said it's leaking transmission fluid big time.

No bueno! Hope the fix isn't too big a deal.

Crap, Sorry. Hope it's something easy to fix.

Hope everything works out with the E90, they have been known to leak oil because of faulty oil drain pan gaskets.
