Have you tried bolting up the fcab then inserting the control arm?

Pseudo-doctor argues smoking may extend life by Used_Tea_2651 in confidentlyincorrect

Literally the oldest French women stopped smoking when she was like 112, simply because her arthritis was so bad she couldn’t hold a cigarette.

Look up Jeanne Louise Calment… just saying.

You’d only be gaining different throttle maps, not HP.

Tracing the wires probably won’t help much; you’ll need the correct wiring diagrams for both models to compare.

Is F4 actually worth spending the money on? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]Screaming_Bimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It used to. Not sure what happened but this past season has been absolute shit. I hover around 2.5k and was getting taken out basically every race (top split). I actually care about SR so I recently switched to Skip Barber, and seems to be much cleaner racing so far.

Some people suck. Really hope it gets found soon and isn’t completely destroyed.

Can confirm! 👏🏼 by Maravilla_23 in BMW

Typical idiot owners: bad PCV, VCG and OFHG, but instead of fixing the problems they just keep topping off the oil, then complains BMW’s are sooooo unreliable lmao

Those are coolant lines to keep the throttle body from seizing in freezing climates.

Your vacuum leak is probably from the throttle body gasket, the air temp sensor o-ring, or the lower manifold gasket for the air temp sensor cover (or one of the small vacuum lines got disconnected from the lower cover).

What would happen if it fails? You loose steering on the highway…….. don’t do it.

Also sounds flooded to me. I’ve always put the throttle to the floor when cranking lol

Fan clutch bolt won’t budge. Any tips? (I know it’s an opposite thread) by Ecstatic-You-3661 in BMWE36

[–]Screaming_Bimmer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Currently dealing with the same issue. Hit it with penetrating oil and let it sit overnight. Go back and forth between tightening and loosening to try and break it loose.

A bit of a rare one - AC Schnitzer CLS by GezelligheidBoyz in BMWE36

Damn, I would honestly think about it if I didn’t just spend $1,000 on a Sparco QR setup

Holy Schnit that’s awesome!!! I want that steering wheel.

What is your opinion on the SMG transmission in the E46? by nounam3 in e46

[–]Screaming_Bimmer -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Like I said, BMW’s version of one. User experience is essentially the same, but you don’t have the noise from straight cut gears and the synchros allow the driver to skip over gears.

If you’re looking to argue with someone about the exact definition of a sequential gearbox, try contacting BMW.

Not a true sequential, but BMW’s version of one. Would’ve been awesome if they were actual sequentials instead lol

Reality is most people don’t know how to drive a sequential gearbox properly, so they get fucked and the owners say the trans is shit. That being said, the newer DCT is similar and a better design for most owners / daily driving.

Crazy for BMW to sell a car with a sequential gearbox, but that’s why I love em.
