That's how you do a winter setup! :thumbup:

Yep, it's michelin x-ice north 4. Been using it for past 3 winter's now.

There is my winter setup for the e65 in the backround also. :D

Those look expensive! But probably very nice to ride on.



They allow studs here but I have been happy with studless. Blizzaks on my X and Hakka R2s on my Mazda 6.



I have an intermittent fast blinker on one side and I learned from a search that the bulb socket/wire may be at fault. Anyone had any experience with fast blinkers? It is the front corner light that is not illuminating.


Pelican has the sockets for $33 apiece but wants to charge $11.50 for shipping. Crazy

I work at tire shop, so I get decent prices. I would prefer studless tires in my area, but my wife only drives with studded tires. :D

Also someone sidewiped on my e65 and ran away... Had to replace both door's... Thank god I found both of them innthe same color.

I have been seeing an intermittent rapid flashing blinker on the driver's side for the last month or two, and when it happens the front turn signal is dead. I went ahead and ordered two new replacement bulb sockets with pigtails. After searching it seems that this problem is often associated with bad sockets, and I have had bad sockets in the back taillights as well.

Got the webasto control unit repaired, and gotta do some testing if it now works. If it works, got think how updgrade the remote for it.


As I got this old bulky remote: https://srotas24.co.uk/car-parts/web...008365710.html :D

That remote is hilarious*. I thought the new interface uses cellular.

*Not really in a funny way.

T91 would be good enough for me...
