Just throwing this out there:

Would a bigger intercooler affect my longterm fuel trim??

When I had put it on it was at around 12-14% fuel trim. Put the stock one back on and it is at around 3-5.4%.

Which intercooler was it? I'm not well versed on fuel trim, does that mean about 10-ish% more air/fuel was getting to the TB vs the old intercooler?

 

The F series cars have the best seats. Even the regular S seats are super nice compared to the previous Gens.

 

The seats are the only thing I like about the new cars The stereo (HK) and interior accent lighting is better too but not good enough for me to take the leap.

 

The family back in Sconsin is hoping for the snow to stop too.
I didn't know BFG made a G-Force Super Sport. I heard of All Seasons and Comp 2's, is the super sport just released?

 

It's an all season that is said [by Tire Rack] to run like a summer tire [really grippy]. BFG even gave a 35k warranty for this tire. I bought a set of 205-50-15s, and, so far, the sidewalls are VERY stiff, so later today I'll do some driving to break them in a bit or at least see if I'm going to like them. Can't wait for warmer days, though!

 

I'm with your wife on this one. I'd be thinking about setting off a bug bomb in there before I drove it again. Hate spiders!

 

Yeah, I never really cared for those VW Beetles, either.

 

When I was a younger lad, my car stereo system had to sound like a rock concert in a car. No that I am an old fart and listen to NPR in the car, it's not that big a deal. I still have a killer Home Theater system in the Man Cave, but I can't watch movies or concert videos in the MINI. In the car, if I even have the radio on, it's NPR, or something similar (I hate radio commercials).

CD

 

I coded out the bulb check in my R56 with the Carly for BMW app, but can't shut off the check for brake or front running lights. The tail lights and running lights up front flash after start up. Will try to redo the coding one of these days.

 

Especially when it's personal...

 

Just got home and popped my hood to let it open a bit to let her cool down (my normal gettin home routine) and noticed a little hiss noise. My damn coolant expansion tank has a crack in it... I thought they fixed that after the first gen. F'n BM'r plastic. The leak is at that middle vertical seam towards the bottom with the trail of dry coolant just below it flowing down the seam. Picking up a new one from Wayland tomorrow and swapping them out after work.

 

Have you ever bought from AliExpress? I've wanted to before a while back but had to order like 200 of something to place an order.

 

Simple green is the best!
