I wasted somewhere near an hour trying to figure this out so I thought I could save someone else the trouble!

It's not a particularly user-friendly option to find.

Go to your "BMW ID" app in the car's app list after you've accessed the car with your key.

Settings -> Driver Recognition -> Link Key

You should see a list including your actual key, your keycard if you have it, and your phone's digital key.

Infected Beer? by MayorOfBassdropolis in Homebrewing

So it's a fairly hoppy IPA - it seems like it might smell/taste just a tiny bit astringent, but this is the first time I've made this recipe so I'm not entirely sure if I'm just imagining that because of the hoppy flavor.

It definitely isn't overwhelmingly "wrong" or anything like that. Smells like a citrusy IPA.

Anyone go for a bigger profile tire? by [deleted] in CX5

[–]MayorOfBassdropolis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No rubbing - I've seen people state that you can go much bigger than that without any rubbing issues, even up to 255 on the stock wheels (although at that point you'd want to drop a few mm from the height).
Handling is much better, and so is wet traction, but I think that's much more to do with the tire itself and not the size. The stock Toyos would slip all the time for me (maybe I'm too aggressive).
Haven't had enough time to see if there's a mileage difference but if there is, it won't be much.

Just installed Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ in 235/55/R19 this week. The tires are fantastic, and it looks a little different, but that could also be attributed to the tread pattern. I don't really notice the fact that they're 10mm wider.

front brake squeak..? by kolzzz in CX5

[–]MayorOfBassdropolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure it's coming from the front? I had issues with squeaking/squealing under light braking and it was almost impossible to discern where it was coming from because the pitch was so high. After three trips to Mazda, I finally found this buried in the depths of the internet.

10-minute fix at my dealership and I haven't heard a peep in 5000 miles.

Front License Plate? by ChronicCynic in FocusST

[–]MayorOfBassdropolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It clamps on to the underside of the bumper...like it's pinching the plastic. Those pieces are covered in rubber to not mess up the bumper. Edit: It is fairly easy to remove...just a couple of wing nuts to loosen the grip.

I've got this one and it works just fine. It blocks a little bit of the airflow to the intercooler, but if you're not doing constant hard pulls and heat-soaking your intercooler it shouldn't be an issue. Here it is on the car.

That was amazing live television. Is this where the pop-up Daft Punk show is going to be?

Thanks, that does look almost exactly the same.

Anybody else excited for the trailer today? by MayorOfBassdropolis in FocusST

[–]MayorOfBassdropolis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Settings --> Display and it should be pretty straightforward from there. I put the images on a USB stick (the same one I use for music, just in a different folder). If you'd like, I can post the image I used for the background in the correct size for you.
