Some updates.

April seen BMW Fanatics attending the Car Candy BMWFest. What an awesome turnout from our members and and Epic Display of cars all around. Thanks Moe for the great Event.

I entered the Show and Shine and Had to leave immediately after my car was judged. Got a cal later from Divio and Yaseen that I won the Best E90 class. I was really humbled at winning the award and thanks to Divio for looking after my Goodies, much appreciated bro.

Firi even if you had not entered the comp, the judges would have given you the award once they spotted your car in the crowd haha :in-love:. Congratulations mate, just know if I were to get an E90 335i/330D I am going to drop it off by you and let you work your magic.

When did you add the steering wheel? Looks awesome.

Thanks bro.

Steering was purchased last year Feb from Zambesi Auto. Arbee was kind enough to put in touch with villen and oscar. The rest is history.

Love that wheel ......maybe I should have kept it and rolled it down my driveway instead of handing it over to you...


The rest of the car is also ok. Only advise would be if I may, wash it on the odd occasion :)

How time flies....with just over 2.5 years in my possession, the 335 has gone so many changes it's hard to remember what it looked like the day I brought it home.

This past weekend seen my mileage finally hit 100 000 kilos, and I was so busy talking to my passenger, I completely forgot to take a pic. None the less, I've just completed 30 000 kilometers of ownership with it, and what a journey thus far. The "Sheer Driving Pleasure " that my car gives is second to none amongst the few I've owned, and the music which she plays from under the hood is something I love the most. I will begin documenting the build of Performance Mods hopefully next week, as it way overdue.

For now, to bring everything up to spec, I carried out a major service on the car 2 weeks back.

Mileage: 99471
Work carried out :

- Engine oil - Replaced with some BMW 5w-30 bought from Uncle J.

- New Magnetic oil sump nut plug. (Apparently is draws whate ver metal shavings are close to it and they stick to the magnetic surface of the plug)

- drained the brake Fluid and replaced with Motul racing brake fluid. This was purchased from axis engineering.

- Cabin Filters

- Liqui Moly Caretac added to engine as well.

- Removal of Charge pipe and cleaning of Tmap sensors and Bov.

- Replacment of vacuum lines running from Vacuum canisters to boost solenoids and Vacuum hose and Bov.
I replaces the oem braided lines with High Temp silicone 3.5mm hose.

- Replaced front disks and pads with Powerbrake Gt disks and Powerbrake Endless pads.

- Replaced read disks with Meyle Disks and texar Pads

- Replaced spark plugs with another set of NGK irridum plugs. These are one step colder plugs. The ones old looks they wore evenly and had no signs of abuse.

- Drivers side rear CV was sweating so that was also sorted

Will update with pics by tomorrow.

Firi your car is looking really good and its great that the maintenance is not compromised as well. Just out of interest, with all the work you have put into the car do you think you'd ever be able to sell it? And if so how much do you think you would let it go for? :fencelook:
