Hello,

New to the forum...always been a sportscar guy, but when my wife and I found out we were having our second, we had to get something a bit bigger and comfortable enough to use as a daily with 2 pre-school age kids. After trolling the board for a few weeks we ended up getting an extended warranty, 1-owner, fully loaded seal grey 05' 4.4. Car only had 55k miles on it and was a deal off of KBB. Previous rides include modded: 996 911 C4S, B7 Audi S4 and an E46 M3. The reliability of the BMW brought me back....

Any advice in mods, care, tuning or upgrades is always appreciated!


Here's the pics sorry about the blackberry camera quality: KW COs, 177s...4.8is rear and front bumper retrofit coming in the fall.




Thanks for looking!

haha..thanks for the comments guys!!! yeah i'm a close parker to immovable objects. It's better I park close than my wife or son wack the door on the way out of the passanger side.


Quick question...does anyone know how to kill the susp. inact code? or do a hard reset on the nav/comp. The indy i brought it to for the COs tried to kill the susp code but ended up configuring the default nav/comp to Metric. ....with no luck on the susp code.

Thanks in advnce!

Didn't realize you deleted the air suspension. See here about the jumper:
