BMW parts reviews

I ran Castrol 0w-40 euro blend for both my e46s and the stuff was awesome

I ran Akebono pads on my ZHP coupe and they were great. Slightly less initial bite than stock, requiring a slightly firmer foot on the pedal, and also need to warm up a bit for full grip - but beyond that, clean as a whistle and they wear forever.

Just recently replaced the fuel pump, tie rod ends and a left front spring and had to do some engine head work, replacing the exhaust valves, valve stem seals etc. and replacing the VANOS, everything straight off the shelf, only item the shop had to order was the spring since my car is still on the original M-Sport suspension.

I have 4S's on my Z4MC, and DWS's on my Golf R. Gotta have a winter-compatible tire on one of them. The 4S's are spectacular on the M.

I've driven the F80 M3 on these, and they were fantastic. I had the factory Conti SportContacts on my E90, and then switched to the PSS tires, and it was night and day. For daily driving in temperate climates, there's no better tire than the P4S at the moment.

I have the BFGoodrich's linked in this thread on the M3, and they are great. Decent grip, great wet weather pattern, and decent life. Would buy again.

I run them on my 03 325xi. So much better on break dust. They don't have as much bite as the OEM pads, but I think they're super close.

For about a month I have owned a 2016 REx whose 60 Ah battery is supposed to get 72 miles. This week I fully charged it and have been commuting four four days without topping up. Today the REx kicked in with the trip meter at 73.3 miles. This was a mixture of city traffic jams and short bursts on the carriageway, mostly with the air con on and mostly in Comfort mode. So I'm pretty pleased.

I had some on my E34. Gripped great in the dry, I avoided the gas pedal when turning/changing lanes in the rain. I gave it a bit of gas near the end of the turn to make sure I'd pass a Buick next to me when I almost ended up driving into the Buick because the rear end let go.

Side-note BMW's smells like peaches :laugh: Doesn't work for crap in cold weather, we had do change a lot of pumps out even when doubling the concentration. Would freeze up when it hit the teens and split those suckers right in two.
