    I was in my truck this morning and saw one or two snowflakes. Y’all can keep your snow! The high today is going to be 39, I thought this was the south!

    Nice Mini Collin! But I am surprised you parted with the R50.

    I’m not a gamer but I imagine it’s a nice diversion during the current COVID 19 situation and the cold winter days that are now upon us.

    I’m guessing because it was a challenge and he could. It’s not something that I would want to do nor could do but to each his own.

    I just knew there was something in that sammich I had kinda smelled before, but I think that the Helmet gives it a whole new sammich "flavor"...turbo that it is.

    Well to answer your question.........today I installed her tail lights and replaced her rear break pads. I don’t know what brain trust at BMW/MINI thought putting the brake wear sensor plug where they did was smart, but the morons should be fired!

    the blinkers are yellow.
    The Mercedes on the right is a new addition we picked it up at a estate sale. The couple were moving to Florida and did not want to take it with them. Well the wife didn’t the husband seemed not happy to let it go. The plan is to fix a few things on it and sale it in the spring. My wife named it Foster. She says we are only it’s Foster parents till spring when we find it a new home

    Coming up to 290,000 kms on my car. Time for another oil change. I noted some grinding noises coming out of my front suspension, getting a bit louder when turning right. The noise started after I had the ABS sensors replaced, and seems to be getting louder. Now, having this much mileage on a car, I should be expecting wear and tear on such things as drive shaft cv joints, suspension bushings, transmission oil seals, etc this service coming up is going to cost me. None of those things have been replaced before. Does such suspension work require the car be put in to service mode?

    If I throw in a clutch replacement, I'm looking in the 4 digits just for parts. Is it worth it to fix or just toss the R53 and get a another car?

    I'll have to book an appointment sometime this week or next.

    Hey Don, take a hammer & modify that mirror. Bet it could fit in a 5 gallon Lowes bucket or at worst 2 of them. ;)
