Well, it will but it doesn’t want to stay there and when it does get to first it falls off.
I tried using the SRAM app and micro adjusting but o must be doing something wrong because I see nothing happening. Any suggestions?
I’m in the market for a daily driver and the 440i Grand Coupe seems right up my alley. Big enough to fit all 4 of us in my family, enough cargo room to throw my bike in, fun to drive, AWD (I’m in the Midwest), and just a good looking car. I’d probably look for a lightly used one as new really isn’t in the budget. Maybe a year or 2 old if I can find the right car.
Where I’m hesitant is the nearest BMW dealership/service center to me is roughly 50 miles away. I’m usually lazy and have the dealership change my oil/rotate tires on my wife’s vehicle, but I imagine I could do that myself as I already do it on my current daily driver (a truck). But how important is it to have a dealership closer by for things like updates and such?
Am I overthinking this? In theory, I shouldn’t need to be at dealership/service center very often at all but would love to hear from anyone with real world experience. Thanks!
I originally installed these Vevor vented floor tiles last August. The first pic was sometime last fall when I finished my garage remodel.
The pics after are from today when I finally found time to clean the main area I park; both the tiles themselves and the floor underneath.
I was impressed with how easy they were to remove in such large sections. I just picked a line and unsnapped them and pulled them out in 2 large sections. For the tiles themselves I sprayed them with my pressure washer, hit them with some APC in a foam cannon, gave them a quick scrub with a stiff bristle brush, rinsed and then set in the shade to dry out.
For the actual garage floor I swept, rinsed, foamed with the same APC, quick scrub and again rinsed.
The first dustpan is what I swept up from the sections I removed. The second was what pulled out with the tiles and was left on my driveway. Pretty impressive considering we had a snowier than normal winter here in northern Illinois.
Full disclosure, I don’t do much dirty work in my garage. I detail in there. I do not drive on any dirt or gravel roads. I don’t do metal work, wood work, etc. I have changed my oil a few times and took precautions to prevent oil from getting through them but some did. I simply unsnapped where the oil was and cleaned it up. Simple as that.
I get it; THESE FLOORS ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE BUT THEY ARE GREAT FOR MY NEEDS. They might not be ideal for you, and that’s ok.
It’s easy to forget, or lose sight, of the fact that when we’re polishing cars we’re taking out more than just scratches. We’re taking off actual clearcoat.
Polishing a vehicle with tinted clearcoat reminds you that on the first pass.
If someone passes you on a 2 lane road in a legal passing zone and doesn’t impose any danger to you or themselves IT IS OK. Read this again before you start in with the but what about scenarios X, Y, and Z.
DO NOT BRAKE.
DO NOT SPEED UP.
Just hold your speed and stay in your lane and let them be on their way. It doesn’t matter what you think of their decision to go faster than you. The quicker they get around you less you have to deal with them. It is not a personal attack. They just want to go faster for whatever reason.
