@@Fahmifcs No, it’s an “S” which has a turbo but not a much horsepower as the JCW and different brakes.

@@Rezellen don’t work on a car if you’re not sure what to do. I didn’t say jack on the transmission oil pan, I said on the subframe which is between the control arm and the transmission oil pan, don’t jack on the oil pan. There is not a lot of room on the bottom of the car. Yes, you can jack from the jack points, but if you want to put jack stands on the jack points you have to hold the car from a second location, ie, the subframe, eg, sometimes one needs to move the suspension around to remove shocks. It’s best to have two points holding up the car so that if one point fails, the other point still holds up the car, and no one gets hurt. If you can’t locate the subframe check out other videos for clarity.

Right?!? I’m a girl and I’ve been working on my mini Cooper a lot lately and I’m wondering if I should have my own channel where I’m like a check with my mini Cooper because I know everything about cars and if I don’t, I’ll figure it out

Thanks for the tip!

@@DanMars27 to get rid of the reminder, you need to tell the car’s computer you did the oil change, e.g. using BimmerLink, see video, or other scan tool, filter is easy, just go to dealer and buy filter for you specific car, it screws off from the bottom of the car engine accessible from the second opening near the drain plug

@@jamesgarage4327 thank you ... giving it a go this weekend

That’s interesting bc it’s my most popular video, should probably give up working on cars if you can’t follow

That’s so nice of you! They are my wife’s posters, I’m more middle of the road type of guy, need to live together in harmony, we’re family

I don’t have a sun roof so I’m not sure?

I think so but depends on the setup, I have the xenon lights and couldn’t find a good led replacement

@@jamesgarage4327 thank you so much

Lens ? Mirror ? K7C 150W 4300k best bulb led

Mainly the LED conversion for the rear tail lights, the gas warning low amounts, and the time to turn lights off after locking the car

Sorry don’t know, but next time I’m in that location, I’ll check because you’re the second person to ask. Maybe someone doing the job can post the wire colors and voltage/order

Sorry- don’t know the answer to that question

I don’t think it’s necessary to get the AEM version. Just as long as the hood scoop blows air over into the engine bay and the one can funnel/pick up the air. The AEM version seems like it would reduce engine bay heating the air, but not sure how much of a difference it makes. AfePower.com has a version I was considering.

go turbo blanket over heat shield (the shield makes the valve cover brittle /warp or actually melt in some cases and yes I have the same one but have upgraded to an aluminum valve cover because of it) agree with tires, intercooler, filter (intake optional and totally not necessary unless tuning ecu) I’d add rear sway bar to go with those coilovers to reduce body roll and understeer. Also adjustable rear control arms with a proper alignment (needed with coilovers anyway) to correct the tire eating problem in the back. A nice cheap upgrade is to delete the junk plastic noisemaker on the factory piping to pick up some throttle response. Best bang for your buck after that is get the ecu tuned for the modifications if that’s allowed in your area. Major improvement even if you don’t modify anything at all (aka “stage 1 tune”)

@@NickTheSheep1379 car is up for sale at the moment

@@NickTheSheep1379 I’m thinking of adding the turbo blanket - historically concerned with fire issue if oil leaks. When I recently fixed a leaking oil housing/gasket leak, I also changed the engine to turbo oil feed (to steel braided) line that should address oil leak concern.

@@jamesgarage4327 I mean realistically you should smell it and see the smoke before the fire… which would likely start with or without a blanket on it. I don’t know of anyone personally that’s had that happen since the lines pass through a fairly large opening in the forge blankets and it’s very fire retardant. The shield should go away once the blanket is on Don’t think it would clear anyway unless you used longer bolts/ spacers.

Glad to help!

Pump it in the drain hole, see my other video on checking the fluid level.

Toyota is an option and can update by Wi-Fi - wired OBD2 to car. I currently prefer BimmerLink and BimmerCode apps as they have wireless connection to car via iPad, and coding options, but doesn’t have transmission temperature option

I don’t notice any jerky downshifting, but my wife is the primary driver and she drives it very conservatively.

bad to flush n put new ? just fill from fill bolt n call it a day

You jack on the frame near the control arm - not on the control arm

Seriously, big time you do and you don’t need two jacks to do it. You can do it with the one Jack, which is probably actually it is safer. You don’t want to be jacking with two jacks especially when they’re in perpendicular locations. That’s actually dangerous.

@@Rezellen I’m not sure what you mean, but having two points holding up the car near each other makes it safer so if one fails the other will hold up the car

Not tricky, see trans fluid leveling video for footage

I had many similar experiences - It’s totally worth doing things yourself

Same too wasted my time

Ice blue. My r55 clubman was the same color

If you go to your car and check it, it will probably look like a sensor in your hand.

@@heartless121c Always has to be a smart ass

Maybe the footwell module check out ecutesting

Maybe the parking light above the fog light or the horn.

I believe that is a side marker light.

@@jamesgarage4327 light? Shure? Thx
