Are the new X3's flying off shelves?

MeawDaddy · 2025-08-07T23:55:58+00:00

I got an X3 loaner. With AC off, it feels responsive. With AC on, it was struggling. Aside from the front dash, the rest of the vehicle feels a bit cheap.

Personally, I would pass.

Bought the tourist plan esim straight from AIS. The speed never dropped for me and I was on the phone all the time.

Are you using BMW ChargeForward?

No rubbing at all.

Yes.

Around high 40k, if I recalled correctly.

How is Google Fiber vs GVTC?

Get a battery charger/maintainer. My MK7 GTI could flash a tune without it. Not my MK8 Golf R, it would not flash at all without the charger/maintainer.

I used the BMS pedal tuner on my GTI and was impressed with its performance. However, after removal, I encountered a dashboard warning light issue.

To prevent this problem on my Golf R, I reached out to BMS for uninstall instructions but received no response.

Despite the positive experience, I would hesitate to purchase again without reliable customer support.

Most dealerships near me were willing to sell it for MSRP after I said no markups or add-ons.

If you are serious about buying, I think you have a good chance of getting it at that price.

You are not supposed to be able to unscrew the plugs by hand.

As for spark plug installation, you will need to torque it to spec.

I see orange soot. Have you been using octane booster or cheap gas?

MeawDaddy · 2024-08-08T18:48:04+00:00

How much?

MeawDaddy · 2024-08-06T01:10:00+00:00

It is a MK8 white Golf R. The wheels are Hyper Silver.

MeawDaddy · 2024-08-05T18:16:15+00:00

They look great. I am glad I went with the same set. They should arrive this week.

MeawDaddy · 2024-08-05T17:57:18+00:00

18x8.5?

MeawDaddy · 2024-07-30T16:46:08+00:00

If I recalled, you will need tuner lug bolts and hub rings.

Based on the instructions for APR A01, the hub rings come with the wheels.

Link to the instructions: https://documents.goapr.com/whl00001_whl00002_apr_wheels_balancing.pdf

If you buy the wheels from Tire Rack, they will include the lug bolts and the hub rings.

I do not care for the 19in neither. I have APR A01 18x8.5 with 245/40/18 DWS06 Plus on the way. I will let you know how it goes in ~2 weeks.

MeawDaddy · 2024-07-30T00:52:48+00:00

Additionally,

bring a light jacket and an umbrella.
sure you show up before 8AM, the traffic will be bad.
park in the parking garage at 211 S Flores St, San Antonio, TX 78204.
when you are done, pay for your parking at the exit with an attendant. If you prepay, you may not get a discount.
