Re: WTS: Original M Sports Muffler for F30 N55
Thank you brother, so I still need to apply LTA approval, thought you have an approval which is transferrable?
Re: WTS: Original M Sports Muffler for F30 N55
Hi wlkoh, does the muffler improve the performance slightly? Or just the sound? Does it work with the auto-close open of one of the pipe? Where would you go to install it and with LTA approval? Thanks.
Re: Auto Transmission Fluid
Many local enthusiasts change trans oil at 40-50k km. I believe this too - yes ZF/BMW recommend sealed for life but I would rather change oil and extend life of EX$$$ gearbox.

Re: Spark plug replacement

Hi all, anyone has comments on Akrapovic and BMW M exhaust?
Akrapovic for E90 335 are titanium and save more than 10 kg whereas the steel Akrapovic for F30 335 would only save a couple kg.
BMW M exhaust sounds interesting but not sure if it improves performance?
Any idea of $$$?
Regards to all.
Re: M135i front brake pad change
Have you changed the brake pad yet? My experience is that most BMW brake pads will wear around 40-50k km. After replacement it can last longer for whatever reason I don't understand. The other major item is the disc itself as it can be worn quite badly... Go...

Re: My F30 issues

Re: How many moved from E90 320i to F30, and regret/enjoyed
Had E90 320i, bought it brand new for $130k!!! Gone were the days of cheap COE! Good work horse and rugged but downgraded from 2.2L/6 to 2L/4. Had E46 320/2.2 and it was real silky engine. Now an exciting 335 still enjoying it after...
Re: WTS : BBS RE-V Forged Rims (Staggered Setup)
Thank you brother,
I'm on 18" staggered 441 8"F/8.5"R fitted with ContiSport SSR 225/45 F and 255/40 R all RFT. Not sure availability of RFT 235/45 and 265/40 here. Will consider your offers.
Re: F30 ~ viewing pleasure
Yes but only on BMW 18", I did it on my F30 with original 18" rims. Was told that some aftermarket 18" can't do as internal diameter may be too small - check with the rim maker.
Re: bbk kit for my f30
Finally installed M Performance brakes in gold/yellow. Looks good with the black staggered rims. Feel more confident in braking maybe it's psychological?? :)
