Definitely a different memory than I have!!

I'm hoping that I get crushed to death by Royals car knocking the White Witch of the stands....

Wow! Where did you sit down? How do you move tools to other the side?

Drove around town with vent temps showing 4C.

Sat on the bubble wrap window sun shade. Did the right side a different day inside the garage.

That tool box has wheels. Most of the tools moved in there.

I don't think that's true. The White Witch seems to wait until I don't have enough to do work all at once and whenever the weather is.. 1. Super hot 2. Dust storms or 3. Both with no overhead cover....

I bought, for camping season, 18x8.5" Hamann HM2 wheels and 265/60/R18 Nokian Outpost APT tires to dress the new shoes. I'm not gonna be using these for about 10 more months, but I wanted to find gear now, for some reason.

Not today, but last month Frau Blücher kept throwing "Bank 1/2 too rich" codes. No noticeable excess fuel exhaust smell, fuel mileage is the same (not great), no roughness or stumbles. Codes would reset then come back within a day.

Prior owner had replaced a shitton of fuel system parts including injectors. No idea if he had access to ISTA etc. to reset adaptations. Disconnected the battery for 30min, some SES and other dash weirdness on restart but that all went away after a minute or two.

No more rich codes!

Still getting the t-stat code... "P1620 Map Cooling Thermostat Control Circuit Signal High" jiggled the wire but that connector is super-hard to access without removing stuff. Maybe that will be my winter break project. No overheating, underheating, cabin heat is fine (or was last winter anyway). No warning lights from this code either.

welded in new plate to fix left front jack area due to lovely winters in Northeast USA and all the salt they throw on the roads. other 3 jack points were only surface rust which I treated with POR-15 rust inhibitor.

I guess it's not bad for 2006 x5 & 203,000 miles

Rear suspension is all done (5 hours) plus new hood/hatch struts, 2 new keys being cut (ready tomorrow) taillight bulb, tranmission bridge seal/filter and oil change this afternoon....

I am now hopefully going to die in my sleep so I can rest!!
I still have to get the Witch inspected (including deviation on alignment 1km) last time was 40m via roll dyno setup.

When the phone returned to normal, I had to reconfigure my phone, including re-installing all my lost apps and widgets, but I found that the Xoutpost app wasn't available, anymore. I tried to contact the admins of XO, https://xoutpost.com/1238126-post1.html, but got no reply from them...probably because "Xoutpost is currently undergoing a planned server migration.... stay tuned for new developments.... sincerely, the management".

So, I reinstalled Tapatalk (free), and was able to use it to see XO on my phone again, but since I've had a love-hate relationship with Tapatalk for many years (during which I've installed/uninstalled it many times, on several devices, for three reasons...fails to connect, freezes up, uses too much data in the background), I also made a Google shortcut to the XO "E53" page, to sit ready for use, on my homescreen, as a back-up.

Perhaps I'd get better service from Tapatalk if I bought the paid version, but as I said, I don't rely on their app, entirely.

Does anyone know why the XO app was withdrawn from the app stores?

Is this the app you are looking for?
