Finished drilling out my broken passenger seat bolt yesterday.
I also may have just found a BMW dealer with a left Performance grille in stock for the facelift coupe. We’ll see tomorrow if they send me a “we’re sorry” email. It wasn’t cheap...

Oh man I forgot about that little bastard. Did you get a helicoil kit for it?
Big Earner
No but I suspect it will come to that next time I unbolt that seat. Once I drilled the fragment thin enough to turn, the bit pushed what was left through the bottom and kept **most** of the threads intact. It’s good enough for now, but we’ll see. At least I’ll be able to pass both NC and pre-HPDE inspection.
Unrelated: when I plug in to run PA Soft I get a “hardware not ready” error on the software. This happens with your cable and the one I just bought. What’s the likelihood I have bad wiring or something to my OBD2? The cable’s lights come on, but nothing on the computer end...

3 threads is enough engagement, especially when you have 3 other bolts holding it in. Helluva lot easier than messing with a helicoil too.
Sounds like it's either the car or computer then. We can hook up to it next week with my computer and eliminate a variable.

The PA Soft interface is a piece of crap - it does this to me all the time. I just keep unplugging / plugging in the cable into various USB ports until it works.
This is why I avoid using PA Soft whenever possible.
What sometimes works is shutting down, unplugging from computer, turning on and booting, and plugging it back in. *Sometimes*

It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.
