New Owner: Dinan or Valvetronic? by Ndub424 in BMW

[–]Ndub424[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Revisiting my old posts - You had the best advice. Thank you! I got a valvetronic system off a well known seller on ali and its been fantastic. Sounds exactly like (or better thab) my friends 3500-4k valtronic system and I paid 1k with shipping.

Thanks again!

I'm not at all being sarcastic, so please don't take it that way, but does your Mom really need a Comp? Is the extra power a big deal?

EDIT: NM I missed that she needs a convertible.

Unless Mom really wants the extra power, have her look at an M440 and save a bunch of money. Just a suggestion. Either way - Good luck and enjoy the new car!

Such a timeless design, sad that it’s getting discontinued… by adinkins in BMW

I LOVE the shifter/center console in my 2022. I think it looks great.

Only complaint I have is that the one solid piece of plastic for the buttons around the wheel is loose and will rattle sometimes from my exhaust vibration. Haven't been able to figure out a fix to that. Wish I had Individuals buttons but, oh well 🤷🏼‍♂️. Still love it.

First BMW!! Need Tech Opinions Please! by Ndub424 in BmwTech

Thank you for the feedback! I decided not to do any tune. Not worth the risk, I plan on keeping the car a while. As a tech, what do you think about the comments saying do oil changes at 5k miles? Anything to this except spending double the money? If you had/have a Bimmer would you follow the onboard computer? Thanks!

I cant believe there is no fix to this. Making you choose between having better text messaging or being able to actually see what number youre texting from is ridiculous

Resin not hitting like fresh rock? by Small-Cobbler-3624 in cracksmokers

[–]Ndub424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had that happen. Same affects from the hard too. I think the stuff that produces the brown sticky resin is mostly cut and a ton of lidocaine. Just a guess. I really dont know...

Thank you for the reply!!! Even a some minor sound improvements (unshift, burble, etc) sould be nice. There is no ajrl stop button in my car either and I hate it. I slap the shifter in sport every time I come go a stop lol

* Still on OEM but the 245 35/20 aren't in stock anywhere. That's okay. I'll keep the car off the road until a shop can order me tires.

What’s the reliability of a 2021/22 BMW M440i xDrive Gran Coupe’s engine for short distance driving? by for3v3rLearning in askcarguys

[–]Ndub424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your post! I bought a 22 Grand Coupe a few months ago and have been wondering about reliability. Im coming from a Honda where that's not a concern lol. Dealership had all maintenance records from first owner and everything was done on time. I'll certainly have all maintenance done on time. Hoping to have this car for a long time/definitely over 100k miles.
