That`s got to be tempting fate

Hi all,

Hope you're having a good weekend.

In the middle of replacing the oil filter housing gasket - not too bad of a job, thanks to big_winn for the tips, especially the removal of the fan for more room and loosening the air con tensioner without raising the car. The 50's kid YouTube video is what I'm using as a guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zC_cmsX68Ok&t=1051s

Going to get a new gasket as I got oil on the new replacement gasket, because I didn't clean the oil filter housing channels beforehand

First I gave it a proper wash…

Then -finally- swapped the winters for summers. Had the bronze CSL’s checked and rebalanced yesterday to make sure they’re all set for the new season. Off to Octane Scramble tomorrow

Looks stunning Barty, that green and those gold wheels - what a combo.

Did she appreciate them? And how was the car?

Gave it its first wash in my ownership. Its going to need a bit more time spent on it until I'm completely happy with it.

Are you going to get a big sticker along the door bottom saying BMW, so you can remember what that one is as well?
