Fellow E46 touring / 80 series owner here as well 🤝🏻 Though I don’t have an M Roadster quite yet. Your truck is looking great. Almost my twin!

Haha thanks! It was a culmination of battling the frustration. Only thing better would be a 12v heating pad wrapped around the fuel filter housing that ran once the truck was started. I day dream of swapping an M57 into my LX450 one day… Sadly I don’t have the skill, time, space, or money. But...

I used to have a 6.4 power stroke and I had it set up with a block heater, two battery heaters, and an oil pan heater. Had the outlet on a timer to come on at 3am till 6am. That thing fired up like it was summer time and warmed up so much faster. Any amount of pre warming will help though.

I prefer New Hampshire Oil Undercoating (NHOU.) It has virtually no smell and is stickier / lasts a lot longer than FF. But either should stop the rust from getting worse.

I’m guessing there’s not many hills between you and the exhaust shop? I’ve towed around 4,000 pounds total and that was way more than enough for my 80.

Switched out my old master switch for a new master switch from Switch Doctor. The switches now switch like they should. I might switch back to a good used oem master switch as I like the switching feel better, but for $25, it was worth the switch.

Power steering flush, RavenTai style. Started groaning like crazy a couple weeks ago (after some pretty wet wheeling, not sure if related) but super quiet now. I used Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF. It may have been over due… just a bit. Not sure what these little seed looking things are; water...

Googling reveals Valley Industires is aftermarket. Most stickers are black now so I’m guessing white stickers are from back in the day. Factory hitch looks slightly different, mostly in the safety chain hook area. Factory hitch is part number 00214-60930.

Mine has the same hitch sticker, is that what came from factory or are these aftermarket hitches?

After the y pipe was welded at least 4 times and never sealing up, I decided to give the hack method a try. This is by far the quietest this exhaust has ever been since it started leaking here; such a great drive in to work this morning! We’ll see how long it lasts (not long I’m guessing) but it...

x3! Mines a ‘96 though

How’s the drone with the dump pipe?

Managed to fit in a wash, polish, and graphene coating… long overdue. Ready to get muddy again!

This is in my E46 last year. Too bad it wasn’t 99 degrees out… Next year I’ll have that shot with my 80 but with a 1 at the beginning, a baby indeed.
