Got the screen working! Carphonics Carplay reinstalled. She's a beaut

Just needed to replace the capacitors in the screen itself and that was it!

Has anyone had experience with display power issues on the 4:3 monitor?

I suspect this may be linked to the LCM in some way as when the lights are on and the gauge brightness is lowered all the way down the display will turn itself off. Flickering is only present when the car is running, but removing fuse 69 to disable the radio also disables the light indicators on the dashboard. I'm hoping this is just some sort of wiring tomfoolery but any advice would be lovely.

Traffic Master still works!

Really did not expect it to work, but it did! Carplay is in too just need to figure out the signalling issue with the display but that and the airbag light are basically all of my worries with this car.

Feels good to be back in a 7

Lost the last 750 in a crash last year. Finally found the perfect replacement! Another 750i in Mojave Brown. Absolutely over the moon and cannot wait to get it fully back on the road!

Bringing neon's back

Just a cheap 6 strip ebay set I wired into the 12V accessory so it's only on with the ignition but it's good! Gets a lot of attention. Just need to add a small battery inline so it remains on for a little after the car is shut off.

Just in time for summer!

Thought i'd do an oil change on my 1050. 1050 decided to not live anymore!
Was unaware of the airlock issue with the 2018+ speedy's so that's that :(

It was a good run but it's over

Fell foul of the airlock issue. Wasn't even aware of it until damage had been caused. It was a good run 😭
Had changed the oil previously on it the normal way, so I was just way too lucky I guess.

Sparco GT's are in!

Had to put spacers on the OEM bracket to make it fit, as well as modifying and welding the seatbelt bracket, but it's in! Very comfy and not overly tight.

Missing mine so i'll collect the baby ones for now.

Almost Real E38's are a step above the MiniGT version for anyone interested! Detail and accuracy is that much better
