BMW parts reviews

I went with MOOG for the lower control arms on my E46. Seemed like really decent quality. I want to say they were made in Turkey, and half the price of Genuine.

im still on liqui moly 10w60 gt1

I'm a fan of Liqui molly GT1.

I use Redline 10w60.

Oem 2.0 bar expansion tank cap is a liability to the cooling system usually resulting in catastrophic failures. I'm using the now recommended 1.4 bar cap, less chance of ruptured hoses & tanks. Bmw now recommends the 1.4 bar! And better peace of mind

I run StopTech Sport pads on my E92 M3 and they hold up very well for a dual duty pad. I prefer them over the other options listed.

I put the OEM bilsteins in my e36 sedan and they felt amazing, I didnt realise how shot the original shocks were.

My F82 never has engine cooling issues. The DCT needs a 1qt overfill or a better pan once you pick up pace on sticky tires. Unless you're boosting to the moon, you won't have engine cooling issues though. Brakes are the weakest bit. The stockers feel good, but you really need to cool them.

I opted for 10W-40 full synthetic oil (Yacco 1000 MVX 4T). Post-change, I've encountered a couple of issues: Reduced Power: There is a noticeable loss of torque. White Smoke: White smoke is appearing from the motorcycle, but it's not emanating from the exhaust.

I opted for 10W-40 full synthetic oil (Yacco 1000 MVX 4T) and a slightly taller but compatible oil filter (HF204).

Post-change, I've encountered a couple of issues:

* **Reduced Power:** There is a noticeable loss of torque, particularly, the sixth gear feels slower than the fifth.

* **White Smoke:** White smoke is appearing from the motorcycle, but it's not emanating from the exhaust.
