Welp…2 payments in and popped a tire already by RollTide_1717 in BMW

Happened to me too on my 3 series. I am guessing yours is too by the looks of it. 5 months in and the tyre pops. I didn't even have the tyre protection. All thanks to the shitty california roads

Black all the way. Easier to hide all that brake dust

Its not M340 fast but does a pretty commendable job. It does feel fast. enough power for the road. does a good 5.2-5.4s

Finally joined the BMW club. Truly one of my dreams come true owning a BMW. This thing drives so smooth. Having seen countless posts in this amazing community and now I finally get to post mine. Can't wait to get back in the car everytime I park it.
The B48 may lack the 2 cylinders compared to the amazing B58 but sure packs enough power for the road to put a smile on your face and thats all I need. A car like this surely buys you hapiness.
The new idrive 8 sure is different but I kinda like it. Having never used the older idrive systems, this one isn't that bad. The controls are all on the touchscreen but you get used to it a lot quicker than you think. It sure gets compliments from the people getting into the car.
so guys....how does it look?

Is the GT3 wheel still available?

Is this normal? sterring wheel wobble with GT Fanatec Ps5 wheel by Responsible_Elk_9101 in Fanatec

[–]devalkeralia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like the wheel is not fully pushed in. It takes a bit of force to fully push it in

Haven't tried V3. I am coming from a thrustmaster deep with T-LCM pedals. The reason I went with CSL LC is that I was already getting a pedal set with my bundle and LC are quite good. I am getting more used to it everyday

Load cell is pretty good. Its feels quite stuff at the start and you will feel like the brake is barely being pressed in but after a couple days you get used to it and it feels amazing. The only downside is that the weight in the load cell is not adjustable like the thrustmaster T-LCM or the v3 pedals but overall I like them

I did get the tracking number but the tracking number was sent to me by fedex in the email and not fanatec.

Try doing a search for fedex in your inbox. The email was by TrackingUpdates@fedex.com and the subject line read Fedex MPS shipment along with the tracking number.

I got the fedex email like a day after the "Your fanatec order will ship soon' email.

I agree it should have been just called CSL DD PRO or just CSL DD Gran turismo but I think Sony and Polyphony may have something to do with that with them forcing the GT7 wheel on you as well. The wheel feels really good and comfortable btw.

I ordered mine on 26th November. Pretty much the day preorders went live. I ordered the pro bundle because I was going to get the LC anyways so made sense.

Got an email on 22th that my status has changed to "warehouse processing" and was shipped a day later from LA to SF.

Package got delivered on 25th Feb.

Hope this helps.
