    Research, lots of research... trying to determine all the parts I might need to replace to clear up the dreaded P1498.

    I couldn’t find that in the Bentley manual or here. A search showed unmetered air after the compressor. Have you checked the boots on your intercooler?

    That’s how it all starts. You go start it, sit behind the wheel, rev the motor and before you know it your on the road:D

    I had an 84 380SL (wife's car) it was a. nice car. The only thing that was hard for me to get used to was the steering wheel position. It never felt right ,but the wife loved it so who cares.
    You know that made me think about how many cars my wife has had.

    For a sec there, I thought you had your tires jacked. Even while rule #1'd (parked next to another MINI).
