Got some new wipers, the old ones were toast, and the blades came off of them when I pulled them off the windshield. Yikes.
Also received a power steering flush kit, that'll be this weekend's project. I still can't be any happier with the recent plug change, the car drives so good now.

I think this is going to be my next item. Car has started to occasionally get a slight rumble at idle (no RPM move though), which from searching on here I think I've diagnosed as needing new coils/spark plugs. Probably will do some other fluid changes as well.

I'm surprised you do not fall under either....
Anyone who worked on these E82s suffers from bat/owl syndrome, especially the 135 guys, since there is barely any space up front due to turbos (they are always turning their heads haha). |

Whiteline RSFBings arrived.
Plan to to lower that subframe really low, may have to remove the exhaust and bottom shock bolts, need to get old M3 bushings out (incorrectly installed) and the sway bar + end links. Also best time before Christmas for alignment is Monday at 9am, so will do my best to get the M3 front upper and lower arms also installed. May buy some string and get the toe dialed out to 0, make it drivable for a couple of days (no high speed/travelling) till Monday. Fingers crossed. |

I remember these guys. Loved the Stephen Stills and Neil Young songs. Haven't thought about this group in a long while.
Thanks for jogging my memory. lol

The story is they were walking around SF and saw a steam roller and voila.

Don't know, but I do know that Neil Young looked up to him. And I didn't mean Stills was in Canada, I meant Young came down from Canada to be in a band with Stills.
They were together again in "Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young" for a short time until Neil Young left the group to continue his solo career.

Back to the subject of our beloved 1ers:
I ordered some Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires (225/255) from Tire Rack that should be here by Friday.
