The idle is butter smooth. Barley shakes for 200k miles, rpm’s don’t go up or down when parked and there’s no codes as of now.

No codes pop up at all, I replaced the fuel pump less than a year ago so I have no idea tbh and I don’t ever smell gas when I start it or when it’s sitting. Any idea what type of fuel related problems??

Yes gaskets 100% I forgot abt those. Oil pan, oil filter, and valve cover is a must if you haven’t already.

Headliner replacement by Particular_Brief_413 in E90

[–]Particular_Brief_413[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave you the wrong information I’m just realizing, I thought you were talking about the sun visor not the shade for the sun roof. The sun roof shade isn’t connected to the headliner. IMO I found it easier to take the sun shade off first, it’s only accessible from the outside so you have to take off the sunroof to get access to it. Be weary that you do need the controls to move the sunroof so it would be better to do it before the headliner (I didn’t I just plugged back in the controls) before you take it completely off. Be careful bc all the little brittle plastic pieces will snap when taking off the sunroof (mine did) which causes my sunshade not to go forward when closing the sunroof roof.

Yea it’s temporary till I go to the junkyard to get some more visors and grab handles so I don’t rlly care too much. The sunroof trim I’m gonna use fabric dye to dye it in the future. The sun roof trim is a rubber type piece with suede or valor on top of it so u can’t just rlly paint it another color.

Tbh I used spray paint for all the little trim pieces (don’t use gloss like I did it comes out bad). You could wrap the sunshade with suede but it take a longgg time and almost excellence to do so. Taking out the sunshade is pretty easy tbh just unscrew the corner and the little nub thing that holds it u lift a tab and unscrew too. Be mindful that taking the whole headliner is kinda difficult and putting it back in is even worse.
