    Feedback on Koni FSD (considering)

    I actually did change to KONI Special Active, it is surprisingly not too harsh actually. Abit of a cheater i would say: car lower, better cornering and handling, smooth road not bouncy, over potholes recover fast, some bumps are harsher but i also dunno how the FSD works to counter different...

Few mths ago i also have occasional same errors, and when i test with OBD2 and Bimmerlink software, the batt % is 70%+ even after long driving, so i changed the...

    Renew COE now?

    of coz it's cheaper. The only delta is the few more days per year at workshops. For the ultra rich, it's not worth their time. TIME is "priced" differently for diff ppl. as i mentioned earlier, if you renew own car to COE car, you're effectively saving ard 10k of body value to yourself instead...

Tech like hand gestures, while fun, is not a game changing. Most of the more useful tech have after-market solutions at...

    PARF is expected to be 'lost' the moment you decided to continue driving, regardless if you going to change new, second hand or COE car. (keep buying COE car is different, another conversation).
