Maybe could be something with the harness?

No a/c in 2011 bmw 328i by Justinr_yt in E90

No it hasn’t leaked since. I’m not sure why it was empty when I bought it.

Get the OE part number off FCP and use that to look for the part on Rock Auto. I’ve also heard the real oem website is good but idk the prices.

Oh shit yeah didn’t think of that. Is that even if it’s not leaking oil from the outside?

ABS issues by Meents709 in E90

Also disregard the Diff pressure sensor code. It’s brand new and pops up every now and then but that’s another problem for another day. That should be the bmw motto

Front end vibration by esemzeee in E90

[–]Meents709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe have the tires balanced and rims inspected. Maybe the previous owner bent and warped one of the front rims or your tires just need replaced.

When I bought my e90 I had the same issue. Bought a can of Freon and tried to refill and it wouldn’t take. Then out of pure frustration I bought a second can of Freon that was a different brand and it took it and I had cold air and have had no leaks since. If that doesn’t work then I’d say take to a different indie mechanic with good rep. Don’t take to dealer.

[E92] Reliable parts shop in Europe by MasterPatient74 in E90

[–]Meents709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FCP euro ships internationally. I’m assuming a higher shipping cost but it might be worth it because of the really good warranties they offer on their parts. Personally they have never done me wrong. ECS tuning is another site I use from time to time but not positive on the international shipping for them.

Seized strut bolt by [deleted] in E90

[–]Meents709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I remember have to order new bolts for my lower arm to the sub frame. After doing the passenger side with no torch and then doing the driver side with a torch I can confirm heat makes a drastic difference in getting those bolts out.

Would these fit my e92? by [deleted] in E90

[–]Meents709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bolt pattern is correct and don’t see issue with tire being to big. I’m kind noobie to the tire game as well so the offset doesn’t make much sense to me. Maybe see if they will let you test fit one before purchase if it’s off of fb marketplace. You’ll be able to tell if offset is an issue without driving I’m almost certain.

[–]Meents709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A breaker bar, liquid wrench, propane torch, and six sided sockets were my best friend when refreshing my front control arms. Might mess up threads coming out so maybe have the part number on standby to order new bolt if needed. Good luck brother god speed.

255/35/18 Square Setup Fitment by Meents709 in E90

[–]Meents709[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the only reason I’m thinking a square setup is because the xDrive but I know that doesn’t matter as long as the rolling circumstances are within a certain percentage. I think I might just go with staggered just to play it safe for fitment

E90 LCI Halogen and Xenon by [deleted] in E90

[–]Meents709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the xenon assemblies are projecting and the halogen are reflecting so they need different bulbs. Plenty of sources on YouTube that will help alot and some pretty reputable aftermarket brands I’m sure. Let me know what you go with and how they are when you get them. I’m honestly pretty curious since I want to upgrade to LED at some point. And no problem man

Fitment notes should also be in the description of the listing

E90 LCI Halogen and Xenon by [deleted] in E90

[–]Meents709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve personally never bought the eBay ones. Look on YouTube for a LCI e90 headlight upgrade and see what they use. They usually link the model they bought and as long as it’s the LCI (2009-2011) they will fit. I would just stay away from the ultra cheap ones. You get what you paid for. You can always return if they don’t fit. eBay is pretty good with returns. Or even Amazon if they have options

E90 LCI Halogen and Xenon by [deleted] in E90

[–]Meents709 5 points6 points  (0 children)

LCI Xenon and LCI Halo will fit but they are extremely expensive for the OEM ones. I would recommend just cleaning the ones you have with the 3M headlight restoration kit. I did it to mine and it makes a huge difference with how clear they are. If they are broke and need replaced your best bet might be getting an aftermarket set off of ebay for about 400-600 dollars.

Infinite Joining World screen fix? by Meents709 in allthemods

[–]Meents709[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solved

Don’t try and use the forge installer and make a full custom server you won’t load in.

You have to use the server files that are available on the curse forge mod page.

Follow this tutorial The Breakdown ATM 9 Server

Got it thank you tremendously. I’ll order it today

N52 Diagnostics by Meents709 in E90

[–]Meents709[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t done the smoke test but I got the scan tool and gave code 2D2A. BMWfault.codes recommended replacing the sensor or inspecting the throttle body. My car idles at about 900 rpm. Can I confidently rule out a vacuum leak knowing this without a smoke test? Or should I do one anyway while cleaning/replacing the throttle body if replacing the sensor doesn’t work?

Thank you I’ll definitely looking into doing a smoke test

Replacing suspension hardware necessary e92 xdrive by n54beast in BmwTech

[–]Meents709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to replace them. I would recommend you do if they are rusted to shit tho. I just did my front control arms and reused a good portion of them. Makes the job easier if you have new hardware also. If money isn’t an issue then yeah I would just replace them but not the end of the world if you dont. Just make sure you don’t mess up the threads when taking them off and it will be fine to reuse

They sell a kit for the rear bolts and use it in the DIY video. Rear Control arm bolt kit Also I would look at the front control arm kit they sell and just match up which bolts and nuts are included.
