  1. 2018 six-speed manual with a twin-disc clutch and dual-mass flywheel

    Mantic twin disc clutch. Don't bother with anything else.
  2. Installing new magnetic paddle shifters - tips, photos, DIY how-to instructions

    Now see if you can remove your airbag. If they are anything like mine, you will not be able to put a pin in to decompress the spring which allows the removal of the airbag. I installed these a year ago
  3. Outdoor Winter Storage

    This no cover advice depends on how much movement your cover has in the wind. I took care of it by sewing on some extra straps which run from the front behind each front wheel to their respective sides and like wise for the rear and rear wheels to the side and one through the centre. This...
  4. G80 M3 Comp XDrive

    I own a 2011 e90 m3. The rod bearing issue has been blown out of proportion. They updated the rod bearings part way through I believe. Most people have had them done as a precaution. Much like the oil coolers in UK. Remember the whoo haaa around the oil pump gears on the coyote? Not going to...

    Don't discount Ali express
  6. G80 M3 Comp XDrive

    No. G80 m3's have an insanely good launch control. My KB s550 went against a G80 m3 comp. Pretty even Stevens. Both on dig and 50mph to 155mph. Mind you it's on a carb approved tune so plenty of potential on the table but the A10 isn't making up the difference. xDrive is worse on the top end...

  9. UK - Best Service Centers / Upgrade Garages

    I avoid letting people touch my car. I'm a big advocate for doing the work yourself. You have to remember most of the work on these cars has been planned and designed in a way that is idi*t proof. If you can invest in the right tools and yourself, it's totally worth it. The difference between...
  10. Worth SORNing ?

    My renewal is going to be ÂŁ195 and for October through March. I SORN my car. Not giving the thieves anymore money than I have to the baaaas taaaa ddss
  11. (In)Active exhaust

    Likely to be this. The harness may look okay but for both actuators to go at the same time it's highly unlikely. Have you checked your fuse? Check the wiring also. It's highly likely the harnesses have rubbed and the wiring is damaged somewhere along the line. Replace fuse, see which side...
  12. 2018+ dual clutch on a 2015+ manual car, possible?
