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

She’s Blowing Cold again!

Had the AC checked and recharges. This will aid in more miles and more smiles.[emoji16]

What was the issue? I’m going to recharge mine today. Well, first I will check the pressure in the system and then decide if it is a Freon issue or something else.

It hasn’t been blowing cold for a while. I wanted to have the complete system checked in case it was more then just a recharge.

So was it just a Freon issue? You had a leak?

Checked with dye and no leak found. First time anything’s been done to the AC in nearly 20 years. I’m okay with that.

For what it's worth at 24, I also find the Z4M seats incredibly firm. My buddy has them in his Z4 and I was incredibly envious until I sat it in it. It's just so firm, it doesn't feel like cushions. I met this woman completely randomly who let me drive her a non-M Z4C with sport seats and those were fairly comfy.

Finished swapping out the alcantara interior and putting in the black leather. Topped up fluids too. The seats are a bit too firm for my liking, but luckily there's cheap aftermarket remedies for that - looking into thin seat cushions for only the bottom part of them.

Nice, got the Performance intake too. Great example of an OEM+ ZHP and something I aspire to as well. Checking classified for Z4 seats every day...

Did a bit of mild off-roading in the ZHP today while looking for fun roads to drive…
