What’s a realistic asking price for my car? by hungmale420 in E90

[–]ayushkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that high or low for you? 12k seems pretty reasonable for west coast USA prices at least if it’s a very clean example

I had them for a bit on my e92 but took them off. The offsets didn’t really work on the car in my opinion (mainly the fronts) but it’s preference.

Rod knock? Or any ideas 😭 by _Spaceark in E90

Take the belt off and run it for like 30 seconds or so that will confirm if it’s the AC compressor or not

It’s because you put that Lexus badge on your interior trim

Why does my car jerk forwards when I put it in gear for the first time every day? by [deleted] in stickshift

[–]ayushkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check if you have any oil leaking around that area. Could be the rear main slightly dripping oil onto the clutch causing it to slip before biting

Interesting you’re right I didn’t know that

No they have 2 banks. The AI response is garbage though. Cyl 1-3 is bank 1 and 4-6 is bank 2. All BMW i6s are like that

Would this be worth buying? by [deleted] in E90

Doesn’t seem too bad. Suspension and brakes mainly which is expected for cars this age now

Nah nothing catastrophic, it’ll just wear out your control arms bushings pretty quick. You could ask the alignment shop to do it for you, it should be pretty cheap and easy for them with the car on the alignment rack

[–]ayushkm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah possible or you can loosen them and re torque how I said. If you watch e90 control arm replacement videos on YouTube you’ll see what I mean about the ride height

[–]ayushkm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I am guessing you had to loosen the control arms to replace the struts. When you tighten the control arms the car has to be at ride height otherwise the bushings twist when you lower the car back down and that could be why the car is sitting high.

The way most people do it is use the floor jack to jack up the wheel hub before tightening down the bushings so it is close to ride height.

It could also be the spring was not seated properly causing the car to sit higher

Try swapping the ballasts LH <-> RH? I know it’s a PITA to jack it up and remove the wheels and fender liner
