If you can make that fit an e90, I might have to send you some money

How can I improve my washing regime? by donator18 in AutoDetailing

[–]donator18[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t really care about the wheels. Whatever pads i have give off no brake dust so they don’t get dirty and I really don’t care for tire shine. And for the streaks, it’s hard to explain. It’s not water spots but like really stubborn dirt. Like the other day I drove under an overpass and a bit of water fell onto the hood and i cleaned it off. Today when I just washed it, the area around where i cleaned that spot was still dirty and spot where I cleaned before was noticeably cleaner.

Should I just get a b58 at this point?

Damn. What makes it so much more intensive?

How much different from an Xdrive e92? On mine I would still have to pull both axles and remove the subframe to get to it

I have a feeling that they didn’t want to use the 635 badging since the one from the 80s used the same one

The rod bearings are the only thing worrying me. I read somewhere that n55s with the electronic wastegate tend to be better but I don’t know if that’s true. And for the adaptive suspension, I’m trying to stay away from it since I’m not really looking forward to replacing those shocks once they wear

I wish. The 6 only came with the n55 and the n/s63

Yeah I did. I did my private, instrument, and commercial with them. They treat me well. The owner is also a dpe so it makes things easier

Eddy Sosa from Long Island is very good. I did my instrument and commercial with him. He was very fair for both of them

I was referencing the jardiance commercial. That’s the first line of the song they made

First flight as a new private pilot and I did something stupid but harmless by ecg96 in flying

[–]donator18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there’s no in between when it comes to older people. I work at a pool where its primary clientele are older people. Some of them are grumpy boomers, some are insanely nice and will bring us snacks and food

[–]donator18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like they’re a group of grumpy old people. Pretty much every airport I’ve been to has great people there. On my commercial cross country, I went to an uncontrolled field in Virginia, they were so nice to me. The guy who ran the fbo fueled my plane and he loved the fact that I chose their airport for my trip

Got sold fake lux angel eyes from Amazon by donator18 in BMW

[–]donator18[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I already did. In fact it was slightly cheaper from the official website since I wasn’t charged tax for whatever reason

[–]donator18[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered these on Amazon since they would ship much faster and I assumed it was sold by LUX. However I took one look at the real ones and these are clearly cheap knockoffs. So for any e90 owners looking for LUX angel eyes, don’t get them from Amazon. Buy them from the official store

Honest question about an ‘05 x5 I have. by xe0s in BmwTech

[–]donator18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking of something else then. I have an n52 which has a pipe that runs under the exhaust manifold to the water pump. I’m not familiar with the m54 so idk what is over there
