The antennas look good. If its what I think it is, yours is super easy to fix. I replaced my CA rear bumper antenna in about 3 minutes last year.
As far as I can tell there's no reason to believe...

Key fob just stopped working wirelessly one day. No spare to compare to.

It’s out! Honestly it wasn’t too bad. I pulled the fuel rail & injectors this morning. They were pretty fouled anyways so I gave them a cleaning.

Any reason I shouldn’t just pull the fuel rail off so I can get vice grips on it at a proper 90 degree angle? I’m thinking it would turn out if I wasn’t fighting the lateral play in the grips when...

Broken valve cover bolt n52k
Welp. My torque wrench must have failed me, or I got a seriously defective bolt with my new VC.

Pretty sure the PCV valve has failed on my 2010 e70.
Oil fill cap is still fairly easy to remove by hand while the engine is running, however, there is definitely a vacuum on the cap.

Oil filter housing alignment
Is it possible to missalign when reinstalling? I noticed that mine is definitely not exactly where it was when I removed it after I torqued the bolts down. Do I need to loosen it up and realign or am...

AC Belt change with rusty crank bolts
The bolt heads on the harmonic balancer for my e70 30i (n52) are super rusty. I’m afraid I’ll snap a bolt head off if I try and use one to instal the ac stretch belt. (It’s the 4 bolt pattern, not a...
