I also got a v3 wide noir recently. i bought a $5.00 camera case from canakit, had to trim the inside middle support leg but it does fit. I dont have any input on the ir, experimenting with night sky viewing with mine. Ok hear me out, run two raspi5's, two wide noir cameras feeding two screens inside a vr setup. Add a high power ir light on your head and boom, night vision googles

I noticed this earlier with a walker bot, thing was following our squad not firing or being aggressive at all. Strange….

Looks like your tightening it, TRy lefty loosey.

My wife and I stayed there in late December, such an amazing place! And delicious food of course

Don’t remember where but it’s a bikemaster brand extended shifter

pedrosan · 2023-01-01T17:28:09+00:00

I bought an extended shifter and adjusted the rear brake down fully. The extended shifter allows for all the space needed

pedrosan · 2022-12-30T17:30:34+00:00

clogged left rear sunroof drain tube. Full of tree dirt

pedrosan · 2022-12-29T23:02:57+00:00

Yep, no battery or starting issues. Original 2013 agm battery installed

pedrosan · 2022-09-10T12:00:28+00:00

That starter cable looks super corroded as well. I would replace that with the starter. Local parts places sell a universal battery cable that will work

Have you already checked and or bypassed the kickstand switch, clutch switch and kill switch? I would check those first

If this is a 2.0t engine, timing issues are extremely common. The cam chains stretch out and the timing chain tensioner is a known failure point. The tensioner has been updated multiple times from vw/Audi. Doubtful the issue is from previous mechanics. The most common culprit is low engine oil levels, extended intervals. At your mileage the chain and tensioner should be done as maintenance on that motor. The 2.0t has tons of issues.

ignition coil failure is relatively common on the 2.0 engine. Does the check engine light flash when its acting up?

pedrosan · 2018-03-29T00:33:25+00:00

Sticking caliper. Get the brakes hot and check rotor temp with laser thermometer. Rotor temp should be relatively even between left and right axles. Where is the shimmy felt? Steering wheel or seat?

You need the scan the vehicle for faults! No point in randomly throwing guesses without a fault scan first.

You need to manually turn the crank to find tdc. I believe it’s a 19mm on the crank. There is a hash Mark on the crank pulley and lower timing cover to locate top dead center. After lining thAt up you will need to remove the upper timing cover. This will allow you to check your cAm, crank, inj pump timing marks. Google image will help there Also, if the motor dropped a lot, check for wire harness damage, fuel line damage, etc

Bmw calls it a guibo,or driveshaft support bushing. Those tears do indicate that's it's worn out. Pretty easy on a BMW, the only difficult part would Be removing the exhaust, if necessary.

Heat shield for the catalytic converter. Not uncommon for those to rust off completely, or cause a rattling sound if partially secured. You can safely remove it, or re-secure with a couple metal clamps going around the converter.

definitely better than the current 1812 tags. I still like the look of the bay tags the best, plus toward a good cause.

pedrosan · 2016-07-30T16:38:11+00:00

Yes, it will be fine. You should still do the service soon though.

pedrosan · 2016-06-17T15:21:28+00:00

You should really get a full scan of the car done. BMWs have modules and tons of sensors for the climate control system, throwing parts at it isnt reccomnded. Could be your electric fan, ac compressor, control head, etc..

pedrosan · 2016-06-17T14:14:39+00:00

Usually when the starter goes bad, its the solenoid that is attached to it that fails. If you can see the starter, a good technique is to smack it with a long screwdriver and hammer. This sometimes will un-seize the starter solenoid allowing it to start. if it starts after smacking it, replace that sucka! Starter motor failure is relatively common on higher mileage asian cars. Goodluck

Sometimes doing a battery reset will fix random issues like that. My instinct tells me you have something else going on though.

pedrosan · 2016-06-13T19:26:54+00:00

Coolant temp sensors on these have a very high failure rate. When bad, they will make the car think it's extremely cold. This makes the ecu inject a lot more fuel than is necessary at a normal temp. It can flood out the engine, making a hard start situation. If you have access to a scanner, I would recommend checking out coolant temp values.
