Had the tenth annual oil change today and learned that the motor mounts and thrust arm bushings have reached the ends of their lives. Considering taking the opportunity to install M2 thrust arms to go along with the M2 LCAs already onboard.

Ordered my M2 thrust arms with urethane bushings to fit directly on my 228i to go along with my older M2 LCAs. Source is Bimmerworld who sells the package with or without the LCAs. Great local dealer will take in these parts to do the installation.

Where did you buy the full kit. Front rear and side skirts, as looking to buy one this week for my F23 and concerned on quality and fit. OEM just too much really. Thanks in advance. |

Only thing I’d do differently is spray some top coat on the original splitter/wing mirror caps to give them some more protection, but they were cheap enough that it’s not the end of the world!

Simple
Just a simple oil change that wasn’t simple. That oil filter cap is a bi_-tck to get off and on.
Got it done. I won’t do it again. Off to dealer next time. Hap |

Finally warm enough and a long weekend to put in the Konis. The first corner's in. Going to tackle the other 3 corners tomorrow... before the beer supply runs low.
No shortage of rust here. Edit: 3 done, last one is halfway there. Doing fronts without using a spring compressor slows things down but it works. Edit 2: Finished, going for test drive. PS: use an extension when fastening the top mount screw closest to the positive terminal or you'll get sparks. Last edited by freakystyly; 05-19-2024 at 01:36 PM.. |
