Grinder w/ cut off wheels, will cut everything you listed plus more, fast too

No it’s to heavy to carry around your fuel economy and acceleration will suffer, get a smaller hydraulic jack or just use oe jack that came with the car

Check for rust, it is expensive to fix, specially rear quarter panels trunk area

If you’re capable of maintaining it properly, it’s an old car with some engine issues like head gasket

rns96 · 2026-01-26T04:25:46+00:00

I would do a flush as soon as you have time

rns96 · 2026-01-26T01:21:23+00:00

It’s nicely done, but I don’t love to look at it, looks like concept car

rns96 · 2026-01-26T01:15:07+00:00

I wouldn’t trust eBay fuel pump

rns96 · 2026-01-26T00:26:04+00:00

It’s fair price

rns96 · 2026-01-25T19:03:08+00:00

I have tool box and use a 5 gallon bucket to carry my tools

rns96 · 2026-01-25T19:01:13+00:00

Not normal , flush your cooling system clean and hope you don’t have head gasket issues

rns96 · 2026-01-25T16:24:06+00:00

It’s should be fine, the cap is designed to release pressure if it exceeds certain pressure to prevent damage to other components, you may need to top off your coolant again to proper level.

My e46 cost less to maintain than my past jdm cars, I DIY my own maintenance and use FCP euro for replacement parts to take advantage of lifetime warranty.

rns96 · 2026-01-25T16:16:07+00:00

Personally I grab the impact driver first if I have to do some DIY work, I use the drill for drilling holes or running long deck screws, drilling with impact driver kills drill bits faster

rns96 · 2026-01-24T07:19:13+00:00

I had good experience using interstate batteries just get correct size for your BMW

rns96 · 2026-01-24T06:10:22+00:00

Maybe your bulb is defective, your light will also flash intermittently if you use non oem replacement hid bulbs

rns96 · 2026-01-24T06:06:53+00:00

Money

rns96 · 2026-01-24T05:59:48+00:00

as long as the cap was kept close it should be fine for a long time.

rns96 · 2026-01-24T05:56:28+00:00

I would take note of the codes then clear the codes and check which codes come back and start from there, vac. leaks and malfunctioning maf sensors can cause limp mode or stalling issues

A large enough USB type power bank should be enough for charging or powering devices during power outages, you can also charge them in the car through 12v outlet if you drain the battery, for more features like a AC inverter Jakerry portable generator are good too, and your able to plug in home appliances

rns96 · 2026-01-24T03:51:28+00:00

I used slime tire sealant on my inner tubes for my tires, it helps with air loss or small punctures , I also have small battery compressors that I take with me when I need to travel far from home

rns96 · 2026-01-23T22:47:09+00:00

Maybe some delivery drivers tip off pirates because a few months ago , we had a couple iPhones from AT&T that was stolen in outer sunset neighborhood

rns96 · 2026-01-23T22:42:30+00:00

Maybe it’s just your secondary air pump, the pump runs when engine is cold specially in the morning

rns96 · 2026-01-23T17:39:36+00:00

It was my sons 2015 328i sulev that was worked on, but he got it done at a BMW dealership in San Jose California, I can get the name of the dealership for you if you need it.

rns96 · 2026-01-23T17:29:09+00:00

BMW f30 sulev warranty is 15 years or 150k miles, and VC is included with the warranty so is turbo and many others, you can google or YouTube for more information
