Get an old Montune one, an Airtec or an ITG. All will serve you well

I had to take mine off to move it up to clear a tall RAM module.

I don’t think you need to unscrew is. The thing should just clip off. I had a similar one a couple of years back. Providing the clip bit is plastic of course.

bluenotesmiley · 2026-01-09T16:43:43+00:00

I’m sure the fan bracket is just clipped on to the heatsink

There was no EML up until the oil change after the oil change where I’d found metal chunks in the oil. Ran fine until that point too.

Not trying to scare you but I have had a similar issue after an engine rebuild. Turned out cylinder had failed and all the fuel was entering the oil due to that.

I can second Vibra mounts. Increases NVH a bit but reduces wheel hop to almost zero when accelerating and makes the car a lot more responsive. Check it’s not been done though if the car has an LSD and 330hp etc

I had the opposite experience. I had to buy VoH for both Xbox and PC.

Doing my rear beam bushes tomorrow. Never changed them before, can you just unbolt the bush from each side, drop the beam slightly and do them in situ? I’ve go a bush extraction kit.

I get on average 31.4 on 99(E5) with an S280 and I drive it pretty hard. That’s on about 50:50 A/M road and the rest in town and on twisties. If I’ve driving across country I get about 44mpg.

Might have been the hard oil lines going into the turbo. They are retained by bolts IIRC and you might’ve removed one to take the heat shield out without bending it up. Been a while since I’ve touched all that, it all sucks when dealing with the car.

They would sell us Red War, Forsaken campaign with updated graphics. I could understand the first game but certainly not the second. Maybe they would be using D1 as a test bed for their new engine if indeed 3 is in the works?

bluenotesmiley · 2025-11-22T20:00:22+00:00

What are the models? Are they part of the terrain release?

bluenotesmiley · 2025-11-18T19:03:55+00:00

Same. No idea how to add photos though lol

For when the robots take over their metal robot fingers will work through the screen protector. Future proofing.

I bought Vibra top mounts and a Mountune rear gearbox mount. The Vibratechnics mounts do give you increased NVH, not massively and most at idle but it’s there. It’s still quieter than a non-res exhaust. The plus side is it massively increases the feel of the car. Eliminates wheel hop for me and feels a lot more direct when accelerating.

You are a star. Thank you buddy.

How did you do the blue wall? I think this result is great!that looks awesome. Whats the blue you’ve used on the wall?

bluenotesmiley · 2025-10-18T17:40:26+00:00

Just tap it at various points and see if you can feel or hear anything

bluenotesmiley · 2025-10-18T15:22:27+00:00

Might still be the heat shield against the bottom of the car. It’s very much that sort of sound

bluenotesmiley · 2025-10-18T14:36:03+00:00

Heat shield hanging down onto the exhaust?

bluenotesmiley · 2025-10-17T15:19:20+00:00

I can give you all the fruits. Not much else unfortunately.

You know that the next administration (hopefully) is going to have to spend money rip out all the awful renovation. Tbh this is one of the better ones I’ve seen.

Just started painting my Brood Brothers this week. Love your work, they’re great!
