In the middle of installing a 10” android to link with my I drive. Sure would be easier if I could read Chinese…

Questions for everyone…
Do you tend to keep your stock parts after modifications? I’ve been trying to sell my stock intake system for a year now! It’s not the compete set(no charge pipe), but I’m considering junking it… I just don’t want to run into the “discontinued parts” scenario, or am I already in that boat lol… Thoughts? |

Seems like maybe the LCI plastic used is a little different than the pre? |

I cleaned the engine bay for the first time (in 11 years of ownership) last night and took it to its first car show. A great day for my 1!

I was wiggling the manifold out from underneath the car (on jack stands) and had to reposition myself in order to keep wiggling. I thought the manifold was secure, took one hand off for a second, and the manifold let me know that it was indeed not secure.

Did the third brake light with an OEM unit. The one I replaced was cracked and falling apart yet still held together by superglue. I wanted to fix this sooner than later since I just did the tail lights. Now... the old piece was a Standard Motor Products (SMP) from Rockauto, (I got into my order history to see what brand it was) and I remember that one cracking up and breaking in like 4 spots in the first month or two of it being on my car. I was fairly pissed. ANYWAY. Once I removed the old one I was super shocked to see a BMW logo on it. In my second pic the brand new OEM is on top, and the SMP one on bottom. They sure look the same to me. On closer inspection one of the little square holes on the center bottom was closed up compared to the old one but other than that, this got me looking at info on the "SMP" brake light.
The official BMW one said made in Italy on the box and when looking around at listing for STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS BTL112, this one on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/404896621979 shows a country of origin as being Italy. So to anyone that needs to replace theirs, get the one off Rockauto and save thirty bucks.

After a rough cold start the other day, and diagnosing that cylinder 4 had a leaky injector, I pulled this beauty out this morning.... seal completely gone.
