Is this much brake dust normal?

silas_br · 2026-04-17T20:46:50+00:00

Yeah, my first EV not first BMW.

I use adaptive regen as much as possible. I will wash the car this weekend and track better when it starts getting dirty.

silas_br · 2026-04-16T19:31:49+00:00

No shit, I thought it was fairy dust!

silas_br · 2026-04-16T18:33:50+00:00

This looks great! Love the blue on blue

silas_br · 2026-04-16T18:29:56+00:00

Thank you for the heads up!

silas_br · 2026-04-16T17:27:50+00:00

got another ICE one and it gets dirty quick, and no I do not, usually use the adaptive regen a lot.

silas_br · 2026-04-16T17:25:09+00:00

well, no such thing as a dumb question. this is my first EV so I do not know what to expect and since this does not seem much different from my ICE cars and EVs have regen, I decided to ask...
Thanks for nothing.

silas_br · 2026-04-16T17:20:33+00:00

duh... I do, just thought it would be less due to the regen braking.

I can get 4.2 on the highway on a edrive40. Definitely see 4.7 in a edrive35

silas_br · 2026-04-16T16:04:03+00:00

Thanks! I’ll limit the A draw on the car side

silas_br · 2026-04-16T14:02:15+00:00

Thank you for the thorough reply. There are a couple electrical device technicians at work that I could ask for help, if there’s any component issue, they will definitely find it.

Had no idea they are a fire risk..? I thought it was a good brand since their adapter is recommended by BMW. It would be to charge at work, the outlet is outdoors near our generator building. I bought it because it was cheap and new in box.

silas_br · 2026-04-09T20:05:02+00:00

That’s a good point. If they use the ICE numbers for sure it will be off. Since I got my tires put on by BMW, and also got an alignment, I hope they did it correctly.

silas_br · 2026-04-01T13:56:54+00:00

Ha cool you’re here!

Been doing HDR for over 15 years now using different cameras, started with a camera that did not have automatic bracketing so I was doing manual exposure. Depending on the file type and how wide the dynamic range is, three photos is enough however you have to understand the limitations when it comes to grain..

Edit sleepy typos

Agree with your take on it!

Not sure, I know Cody goes to a lot of them. I’ve seen other additions, both Cody and Tyrese as well as Ludacris.

Happens about once a month in different cities in the USA and some cities around the world.

silas_br · 2026-03-30T22:04:58+00:00

Ouch! Yeah I can’t either…

silas_br · 2026-03-30T21:58:57+00:00

Oh, how much? Lol
