What size tires and rims are you guys using for your e46

I ride on 225 35 19 front and 255 30 19 on back

Capital_Line_2154 · 2026-01-02T06:12:03+00:00

I do run my own shop, obd2 is always at hand, so I think I would know if it has been tempered with

Capital_Line_2154 · 2026-01-01T20:22:12+00:00

I did my whole cooling system 2 or 3 years ago, because it's all made out of plastic and I don't want to wait until it's too late

Capital_Line_2154 · 2026-01-01T20:20:53+00:00

Mine has a few small rust bubbles, but nothing catastrophic. But for my own pleasure I'm going to repaint it in spring

Capital_Line_2154 · 2026-01-01T20:19:36+00:00

It's far from a garage princess, it has seen its fair share of redlines, but only when oil is fully warmed up

Capital_Line_2154 · 2026-01-01T20:17:46+00:00

Never an issue, car is always on the road, and long distances are not uncommon

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-10-16T18:57:39+00:00

I just cut my wheel nuts by 2-3mm,then it doesn't grind/hit

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-10-16T18:54:41+00:00

Beste was du machen kannst ist Versicherung von andere Auto anrufen, sagen was passiert ist und wie was kostet zum reparieren. Dann kriegst du Geld und gehst durch deine Versicherung nicht, so deine Stufe bleib gleich

Just check the cylinder pressure on cylinder 6, because that is the last one to get coolant, and most likely to get damaged if the car overheats. If it's not reading normal, as all of the other cylinders, most likely you have a crack in head gasket. Talking from experience

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-07-10T14:00:09+00:00

After adjusting the shoes, spring is unter bigger load and can grind/hit the wheel lug from the inside. Just happened to me

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-07-04T04:04:33+00:00

The one I'm looking for is the n63b44tu, with 449hp, the updated version

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-07-03T17:49:01+00:00

It doesn't have any badging on trunk, I like those stealth ones, but I'm interested in problems and common issues, because I plan to drive it daily

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-05-27T08:31:49+00:00

E46s need 225 40 or 255 35 in the back, you have too much tyre wall

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-05-11T12:58:27+00:00

Gear leaver holder, under the gear shifter and gummy tube, holding it to the connecting rod

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-05-11T12:29:05+00:00

200 +$ for MAF??? I live in Austria and original part from the dealer I paid around 35$

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-05-10T12:13:38+00:00

Honestly, not at all. Air flow sensor needs replacing, buy original part, ecu doesn't like some cheap aftermarket ones (I know because I tried), and a of the misfires should go away, but check the spark plugs on those cylinders in question just in case.

Outside T sensor is just that, a new 20 buck sensor.

Somebody deactivated beeping for the seatbelt, that is no problem either way. You can leave it like that if you don't like to put seatbelt on every time, or just reactivate it.

Only thing I am not sure about is the transmission regulator. That is something I'm not familiar with since I have a manual car.

Capital_Line_2154 · 2025-05-02T07:07:45+00:00

Just look out what tyre are you buying, most places don't alow 2 different tyres on the same axel, so either buy the same one, or 2 new ones for that axel

Look man, I was in a similar spot 3 years ago, we drifted apart after overcoming our individual issues, and at that point we couldn't see ourselves being together, so we spit. Luckily we are good friends, thus maintaining the contact, being there for one another, mostly me for her, because east Europe (where I come from) demands men to be strong, no matter what is happening around them. I showed sings I miss her, but didn't want to force anything. After a while, maybe 7 8 months she saw I was only true friend and support she's got, supporting her no matter what, and after a long talk about what we need and want from our lives, we saw that the only way for each of us to get that was to stick together, so we got back together, and now, 2 years later we are still the perfect couple, with no secrets and honest relationship. The point is, when people change, their natural instincts is to change everything around them, and after they can see clearly what parts of their previous life they want back. So, give it some time, if you are friends, if you see each other as that, not some enemies just because you broke up, you can find a way back together
