Might be easiest to just meet up at some point, the google account it's tied to is the one I use for basically everything. Could do basically any coding changes (like getting rid of the annoying legal disclaimer every time you start the car if you have idrive) if you wanted too.
Sounds good to me. We'll figure out a day.

I do! I have the full license, didn't know it could disable TPMS either, that's cool.
Mind if I borrow your license? If that's even possible. Otherwise plan a day we can meet up since I have the detent tools and ecu to give back as well. Let me know!

Hey. Anyone have a license for the BMW ProTool app in the Milwaukee area by chance? Just want to do a quick TPMS delete on my e90 and don't want to pay $80 for a single use, lol. Figured worth a shot to ask. Thanks!

Went out to Jefferson swap meet/car show for something to do. Really strange being at a swap meet after a few years away. It's It's own sort of culture I guess... Turnout wasn't great because of the weather. The only thing I bothered to take a picture of was this barn-find Camero. It looked it had been fixed up just enough to get running and driving, but left as-is otherwise.
I usually go to all the swap meets at Jefferson throughout the year. Kind of a tradition with my dad and brother. Been going for many years. Decided to pass on this one due to the weather. Good to know we didn't miss much.

That's some crazy shit right there. Glad they caught the guys. Hopefully they get the full 15 years.

Coding help needed for a F10 headlight module
If you think the Carly adapter and app can code what you need, you can use mine. I have it for my E90. Just not familiar enough with the F10 to know if it'll work or not.

Thanks! It's perfect size for my Google Pixel 6 too. Holds it in place nicely

pics or it didn't happen
Alright, alright. I forgot to take pics of the finished bracket, but here is one of the test print before doing it for real in black ABS.
I then bought the DIY wireless phone charger kit from ECS Tuning to make it an easy install.

And here it is installed.

Completed the heated steering wheel retrofit. All 100% stock parts. It really cranks out the heat when first turning it on. Then settles after that to a very comfortable temp. I'm very impressed.
I also installed a wireless phone charger in place of the ashtray in front of shifter. 3D printed an adapter that mounts to stock screw locations and uses a universal wireless charging pad from ecstuning. Works great!

BMW part # 51470010557 is the cargo net if you're missing it. Works wonders to keep the groceries in place during those high speed return trips. Can't miss an apex just because you've got eggs in the trunk!
Haha nice!

Can't end the driving season without a little carnage. Had a run in with a fat squirrel while out on my last drive before winter storage. Bent and broke the front splitter I made. Was slapping the bumper the whole ride home. Give me something to do over winter I suppose.
Car has been washed, gassed up with stabil and in it's spot for the long hibernation. Mirrors are tucked, it's official!

e90 gang! That's a nice green. I've left my e90 untinted but after getting my truck tinted it's so much more comfortable on long trips.
Yes, comfortability is a big part of tinted windows. Not looking to limo tint it out. Just something to help with privacy and blocking sun.

Nice looking car. Love the color!
Why'd ya selling the touring?
Also, Fish bowls 4 lyfe.
Thanks!
I had my fun with it. It had 200k on the body, rust spots forming and figured it was time for something different. For what I sold it for, I can't complain.
Lol I just can't do it man!

So, I recently sold my M54B30 5spd swapped E46 touring xi and was on the hunt for a new daily. I was adamant about getting another touring, but it's definitely slim pickings out there unless you wanna pay some crazy prices. I found a 2008 328xi E90 for sale with relatively low miles (103k) for a decent price at a dealer. Did my bargaining thing and got them to come down to my price. This basically made it a straight over trade for what I sold the touring for. Plus it's 6 years newer and 100k miles less.
2008 E90 328xi - Deep Green Metallic over Beige
Came with aftermarket wheels and snow tires, so naturally had to swap them out for some BMW Individual wheels for the meantime.
The color caught my eye the most as you don't see many green BMWs anymore. It's also very hard to capture in photos. I need to take some better ones of the exterior and interior.
So far I am very happy with it. The tight steering and smoothness of the engine when accelerating is really nice. First things I would like to do are getting the xDelete app to make it rwd when the AWD isn't really necessary. Getting some tint on the windows as I hate being in a fish bowl. And installing a Bluetooth audio setup that integrates the steering wheel controls as I don't have the iDrive or navigation. Something that feels factory.

That's awesome about the excursion. We had a diesel excursion 7.3L when I was in high school and I loved driving that thing. I piled 10+ friends in that thing and went on road trips during the summers. Was great! My dad sold it when diesel was incredibly expensive years ago and now wishes he still had it.

My wife's car is an R60 Countryman S All4 and it's pretty fun to drive even with an automatic, good in the snow, and gets like 30mpg too. Not nearly as much room inside as the e91 (it's easily a foot shorter) but still can fit a decent amount of stuff inside with the back seats folded.
That's definitely some good info, thanks! I was planning on going to see these three this weekend. Any insight always helps.

Today a new owner got the opportunity to grab this touring and hopefully enjoy it as much as I have. This car was very enjoyable after the B30 and manual swap. It definitely didn't hurt the value either. Time for something new as a daily tho.
Currently in the market for something different. Thinking either an e91 Touring or even a Mini Countryman S to have some boost back in my life while still being able to haul things. Any other suggestions are welcomed.
