WOLFN8TR'S ///M Project Thread!

Today I changed the oil and installed the ECSTuning Billet Water Pump Pulley and new belts. Man was that a real PITA! So much easier to do on a ZHP. Turns out the stock water pump pulley on the ///M isn't plastic like it is on the ZHP. So for $60 and a few hours of work I now have a lighter pulley with some bling. The diameter is the same on both.

ECSTunings Description:
A "bolt on and go" answer to a weak, unattractive water pump pulley.

Pulley kit includes new drive belt and bolts to mount the pulley.
If you've ever replaced a broken or cracked water pump pulley and wondered why the engineers at BMW didn't make it out of something more durable, you're not the only one.
CNC machined from 6061 billet aluminum, our ECS pulley will never crack or break leaving you on the side of the road. Hard anodized finish to help prevent corrosion. This pulley is a direct replacement using the factory belt and original hardware. If you are replacing your water pump, now is the time to get rid of that plastic pulley.

Also got my metal washer mounted to my cell phone case for the Core 360 cell phone mount to go with the Bimmian bracket.

Thanks guys!

I got my new Ultra HID bulb from DDM Tuning, all is bright again in headlight land! Pretty dam impressed with the ease and speed of getting a replacement bulb. Started the warranty process on Wednesday and got it Monday, not bad at all.

I was out front adjusting the headlights and my neighbor comes over and tells me my rear drivers side brake light is out! WTF?? What is it bad bulb month or something? After doing some trouble shooting I find out the light is bad, LED Tail light. I just ordered one from FCP Euro for $220 Shipped and of course it comes with their Lifetime Warranty.

Well two things actually. I was trouble shooting the drivers side tail light and cleaning all the crap out behind both lights at the same time. I wanted to check both plugs and make sure there were no issues. After doing some reading I found its usually the sedans that had issues with the ground and the plugs melting.

Roll Roll Roll the Fenders gently with ease, except for removing the sealer of course. [emoji2]

Make sure you seal the fenders!! My 330 I didn't and after a couple years water go into the paint fractures from rolling. I even used a heat gun to keep the paint flexible and hot but it was still not good enough. Both fenders started to show rust creeping ever so slowing on the outside.
