Yesterday I did an oil change using Rotella T6. Then washed her afterwards before heading back to SLC from Denver.

Replaced 1 of 2 windshield pump (part #4)+ strainer (part #3)
(left side - when facing the reservoir )

Hard to gauge if the other one will seized soon, along with the head lamp washer pump. I will deal with it one leak at a time

Got my headers welded up to my exhaust. Way quieter!
First great mod. Spent alittle over 200, about 100 for eBay headers and they were made great! About 20$ on 90°o2 bung
And 100 to weld it all up to my exhaust.
No check engine light.
Car feels lighter and acceleration feels alot more power.
I'm glad I did this, for now at least till smog rolls around next year haha

Maybe I should do this. Do you have any pictures of where they mated it up? Did you get E46 325/330i headers?

On a different note, I put on my roof rack today. The season is coming

Yes those are what I got. It was less than an inch off. Worst part I'd say is it was resting on middle of sway bar.I got it alittle off. But if you bend before install should be better.

And yes you reminded me. I gotta throw my rack on!
