I ran across the Mad City Vette website the other day and noticed they post their driving routes
I was thinking it would be awesome to do one of these routes like every other weekend or once a month. Personally I'd like to drive them all by the time I put away the car next winter. I definately would like to do a nice trip like those routes. I know back in my honda days they did the usual devils lake run, but I'd be up for some back country (minus pot holes) trips. Especially hwy 12 to baraboo/dells =D..

I ran into a guy at Waynes auto repair in Madison is will be putting his wifes e46 325xi wagon up for sale soon. Avus blue with tan interior and its a manual. Gorgeous car! Gave him my card and hope to get a call.
While at waynes you were getting the no ethanol added fuel correct =D

Did Battery reset and it was all good to go .=D just was panicked with the warm temps we are having now =D didn't want to have that heat blasting the entire time and I have AUTO climate control

I talked with this guy before they always get a bunch of euro cars in. Car looks good in person too he is asking more then the BIG dealerships in Madtown though and with the mileage I just have to look the other way But the color combo is very nice! I'm just waiting to stumble upon a white one. Talked the guy down to 15K if you are able to pay straight cash.

So this morning I randomly all of a sudden could not turn off my heat or blower on the climate control?
I turned the car off and back on also but it would not respond to any buttons on the climate control? Never has happened before and the display is working fine I just cannot turn down the blower or change the temp?
Please let me know asap ( atleast it got stuck with heat on in the cold weather we are having)

I did replace the clutch fan the last service I had so 1.5 Years ago the fan clutch was replaced, Although i had road debris fly up and they broke apart the fan blades and put a softball hole through the radiator, so at that time I had it all replaced. No Cheap stuff got it

I neef to clean the iacv on my e39 any tips on how to clean it out good? Mine has not liked the cold at all I know the 5 series are notorious for their cold bloodednesd

Sadly I just turned a corner heard a PING, battery light came on, lost power steering and engine power. Opened the hood to find the serpentine belt all bunched up and the tensioner pulley rings just hanging off. Thank god The belt didnt break the fan... just had the whole fan,rad, and clutch assembly done a year an a half ago at the dealer for 1.3k! So thankfully it wil not run me that much this time.
Anyways anyone have a good brand for tensioner/belts they would suggest if not using factory.

So I will do my best to keep this updated with info. So for those of you that don't already know I work for a large towing company out of the Madison/Milwaukee Areas and I just had a special Delivery setup for the 24th. We will be transporting two BMW I3s. First stop is Madison for Test drives at Zimbrick then we are transporting them up to Appleton for more test drives. I will do my best to get pictures and info on them once we get there. =D
