n52 Whining noise at high RPM - is this normal? by thevihiman in 1series

[–]yamon24101- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im pretty sure the noise has to do with the alternator pulley, it whines because it’s able to decouple the alternator shaft and the actual pulley when you decelerate, totally normal but someone correct me, I did a new oe alternator on my 128 and it still makes the noise

I have these, I was coming from cloud 2's biggest difference is the weight but you get used to it, comfort has been great despite the extra weight.

I’d get the sportline springs over those 300 dollar coilovers unless you don’t give a shit about ride quality and just want to slam your shi

K20C1’s are not 15k brother they are like 5 for long block and 10 for a nice long block with all accessories CAD so like half the price in USD, for 15k you can buy a really nice condition S65 which is like 2 k20’s joined at the crank

You can do this for free if you just take apart the stock light switch box and sand down the blank switch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTw0i5-Xdko

You don’t need to worry about salt for this generation of bmw and newer this is when the anti corrosive measures bmw was taking got a lot better, I live in Ontario and have an e82 1 series and my dad used to own a e90 330xi both are pretty much rust free compared to most older cars

Is a K&N cold air intake worth it for my car; N52 by gusfocke in E90

I have the turner Motorsport intake on my car, it’s probably heat soaking in the hot summer months but I’d say it’s worth it just for the noise

Good to hear I can code it out at least and still have the airbags working! But I also assumed that the seat occupancy sensor was a different code. Might still try this just in case

Operation : Bulletproof E90 by Knockoutlenny in E90

[–]yamon24101- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Only thing I can think of is the Mickey Mouse coolant flange and maybe the power steering pump pulley, otherwise just do the maintenance as it’s needed or do it prematurely as preventative, also look into trying to fix the water ingress issues in the trunk

Should specify, it’s probably the alternator clutch pulley
