I drive with gloves too.

not too sure, but I(mostly the car) passed everyone expect a e90 m3 7500rpm mostly in 3-4 gears.

let me be a little specific: -no limp mode first session of the day(low temp in the morning) -no limp mode first session after lunch(long lunch break) -no limp mode second day(68F air temp with 30-50mph wind constant, ppl had to fold away their tent that type of wind) limp mode only happens...

no, but I did call FP to let me know us base+tech owners need their OEM solution ASAP.

did 2 track days, over 1G of acceleration both left and right driver side just had a tiny trace of oil, didn't even bother to wipe it off.

track mode traction control = on (required by my club) seems to be working pretty well.

tech pack did 2 track days this past weekend I found even without a cooler if you air cool the tranny between the sessions say using a leaf blower, it will hold up close to 18-20 mins. the 2nd day it was cooler 69F air temp with blowing wind over 30mph, only limped once on the last half of...

i agree my passenger tube was oily when i changed it at 400 miles already.

sorry i missed your question I use PENNZOIL PLATINUM LV MULTI-VEHICLE ATF It is full synthetic and designed for Ford MERCON® LV. http://www.pennzoil.com/en_us/products/other-oils-fluids-fuel/automatic-transmission-fluids/platinum-lv-multi-vehicle.html#iframe-L2JyYW5kcy9wZW5uem9pbC8wMQ==...

i have a full 2 track days this weekend coming up will check driver side right after, was told on track you need the driver side.

update 2: driver side oil catch can = bone dry. so if you don't plan to track, don't even bother spending the money pass side is a must tho

changed my tranny fluid to full synthetic will see what happens this weekend. sat is gonna rain the pace will be slower.

at 2300miles now track this weekend, will not baby it anymore. the back straight is almost 1mile long.

I baby it the other car is 8400rpm using 10w-60 so I know the importance of proper oil temp. Always drive around the block until the temp hits 70c/160F, then drive carefully until temp hits around 80c/176F. rarely seen engine temp hitting over 100c/212F only rev past 5000rpm once or twice...

update 1: - to fill from min to max, i only needed a bit less than 1/2 qt. (most ppl assume it is 1 qt, but its clearly not) - filled to max with the engine somewhat hot (within 1hr of shut down), next morning 6am stone cold engine and cold air, oil dropped by 1/4-1/3. -1/4'' oil in the...

i have FORD performance oil catch cans, will check tomorrow. no oil leaks and yes the two inner exhaust pipes were a lot darker than the two outer ones, indicating it is burning some oil

I have only reved past 5000rpm once or twice during the 2100miles currently on the ODO. Track days this weekend so I will monitor the oil consumption every couple of days after that.

I checked mine at the same spot at work at lunch on different days and it is definitely eating 1/2 length between max and min every 500miles or so. a little concerning since i never had a car that consumes oil this much.

under 4k daily driven, mostly highway. also I am not sure what is the oil quantity required to fill from min to max on the dipstick, is it 1 qt?

changed my oil at 1000 miles, filled it to the max checked it again at 2100 miles, it is at min is this level of oil consumption normal? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ update 1: - to fill from min to max, i only needed a bit less than 1/2 qt. - filled to max with the...
