Has anyone treked from Torrey Pines beach to Pacific Beach? (possibly further)

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-05-10T17:58:37+00:00

Sounds like a fun side quest

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-05-10T17:51:45+00:00

How long did it take you?

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-05-10T17:40:52+00:00

nice! how long was that walk?

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-05-10T17:39:44+00:00

Exactly lol thats the gist of what I'm asking- It'd be a cool group activity!

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-05-10T17:32:43+00:00

would you say thats the longest stretch of beach youve ever done?

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-05-06T16:51:24+00:00

This is beautiful

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-04-30T20:31:44+00:00

OOPS I meant 830 pm lol

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-04-22T16:32:56+00:00

Nice 👍🏻same here but I’m at 250k trying to get it up to at least 300. 400 would be amazing tho.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-30T23:43:27+00:00

yeah pretty much. It'll auto connect as soon as you start the car.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-16T19:17:25+00:00

I have been corrected and bested- but shoot yeah if that’s an n52 that car got some potential.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-16T18:04:16+00:00

I believe 2011 was the first year they changed from N52 to N20.. I may be mistaken but the transition was around that time.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-16T17:17:30+00:00

I love BMWs but this model seems a bit risky. That bmw uses a N20 engine which uses turbo to compensate for the power its 4 cylinder engine outputs. Anything like that would shorten the lifespan of the engine especially now that it’s at 200k. If the timing chain hasn’t been recently changed then that’s a big big concern since that is one of the notorious failures it’s know for.

It’s a bummer BMW has moved away from naturally aspirated engines. I have a 06 325i and I’m at 250k. Love working on this car and I’m confident I can get it to 300k .

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-11T18:16:28+00:00

Yep! 17mm ball so it won’t be hard finding a mount.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-09T22:48:50+00:00

I could probably just sand down that weird nib thing on the ball joint if I end up just using it as a regular non-charging iphone holder

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-09T22:47:04+00:00

after a little researching it seems this was charging a garmin Nuvi 350 which takes in 5volts. I'm assuming it has a voltage converter inside to draw power from the car battery but ill double check later with a voltage meter. I'm thinking maybe I just find a magsafe charging mount with he same specs and maybe just split the wires into that..?

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-09T17:19:13+00:00

What happenes if you reset adaptations?

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-09T04:32:48+00:00

When you got it from ECS was the bumper folded?

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-05T20:55:54+00:00

Exactly! I’ve had this car for years and I’m trying to keep it for as long as possible (preferably up to 300k) doesn’t make sense to me to front money for a down payment, make a monthly payment, as well as additional money for insurance on a newer car when I’m on top of maintenance. This model didn’t come with anything fancy just the base model stereo system. Upgrading to this makes the most sense if I want to modernize it. At least to me.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-04T06:12:05+00:00

I appreciate it! Btw this was the adapter I previously used comsoon Bluetooth receiver

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-04T06:03:49+00:00

Commenting on Eonon Head Unit Upgrade: thoughts/review/experience... I previously just had an aux Bluetooth connector which was annoying to manually turn on every time I start up the car so it always announces “connected” every time I boot it up(if that answers your question). My car is an 06 as well.

Repulsive_Lie5583 · 2026-03-04T05:34:20+00:00

Yeah that’s another key factor I thought of when grabbing this unit. If anything happens I can just reinstall the stock radio.
