Upon closing the roof, my clam shell won’t close in sequence, what could cause that? Also: What radio is that in the 1st car?
@KrisO19762 күн бұрын
@dkelli6020 all the cars have the Eonon radio in them. Unfortunately Eonon has discontinued this radio and uses the 9" screen now. It's bigger. It's cool. But it doesn't look factory. It sits in front the ac vents... but you can sometimes still find eonon or other brands that are the same
@KrisO19762 күн бұрын
@dkelli6020 the cover on the back is controlled by the motor under the back seat...... broken cover causes the gear to skip.... broken teeth on the gear (unlikely).... broken wire attached to the cover... That's an issue I haven't had, or come across.

One of my E46s MAY have that problem. I hope to address that soon, but i am doing so much at once. Being able to put my top down manually hasn't made that a priority, but I sure will try to see about broken wires on the drivers side at the first hinge eventually

@KrisO1976 at the moment it feels like-11c and just stopped snowing. It's very dry and powdery so doesn't accumulate quickly. Last year was super cold a few days -47. This year we've had rain this month in between the snow. Weird!!! Summer up to 42c. We get chinooks in winter where the temp can rise 50 degrees in a couple hours. Enjoy the snow while you can...hope it's not too terrible for you.😂

I have the same mower the only complaint I have is the holes they left open around the deck spindles. Then the whole top of the mower deck gets clogged with grass and you have to take the covers off to clean it. It would have been nice if they would have made a easy off without needing wrenches but you have to go through the whole thing and why? Are the holes there to help keep the bearings cool? I've never seen this before and I've never had a bearing go bad and I would rather change a bearing every 5 years then I have to clean my deck every time I use my mower. Who's the idiot who designed that and who's the moron who gave it the okay?

No. Not normal. Where you put the allen key in, there are some plastic gears behind that. If you go on Ebay and search e46 latch gear repair, you will find a bunch of the gears I'm talking about, but metal. I have another video about the convertible top and you can see the gear I'm talking about

Great video. I see you put two ways in the front. Are they ok as is or would it have been better to use components? I just got an e46 vert and will be looking to swap the audio system so I was curious about the two way coaxials. Thanks.
@KrisO1976Ай бұрын
Component speakers would sound better than coaxial. I went with coaxial for cost and because I don't have an amp since it was flooded. If I was using the factory amp, I guess you could just hook to the factory speaker wires and not use the crossovers. The coaxial speakers do sound better than the factory speakers, and the Bavsound.

The dark blue that's on this car, is also on my other car with another blue that are both Vvivid premium, and i really do like them. I've used bad Vvivids before though. I do like KPMF. The Avery Dennison i used is really thin and expensive, but it's easy to work with. All I can really say is if the vinyl has a white sticky side, it's usually not good. If the sticky side is either gray or the color of the wrap, it has been good.

A bad clock spring doesn't throw any fault codes or lights. It just causes all steering wheel controls to no longer work. The main cause of an airbag light is the sensor in the passenger seat.

@KrisO19762 ай бұрын
A bad sensor could be a problem... BUT, if you have an automatic, there is a little thermostat under the expansion tank. It breaks in the open position, and that would be my first thought. You have to remove the expansion tank to get it, and it will break when you take the tank off anyway. Buy one before you do the work, because auto part stores sell them for around $100, but you can get them online for less than $20.

I have had mine now for 5 years. I will admit i sometimes use it to bush hog when i want to add more to my yard. In those five years I have went through 3 or 4 sets of blades which I find normal for my cutting. I do agree the OEM blades are way too much money for how long they last. I get mine off Amazon now for like $35 a set and they last as long as the OEM blades. I have had to replace the center spindle assy. I guess i did not set the star into the spindle notch very well one year and it wore it down flat. Again for $25 on Amazon you cab get a complete assy and 10 minutes later you are off an running. Plus the aftermarket brand has a grease zerk fitting in them. I have had to replace the front deck hanger, but that took me about 5 minutes. I have to blow up my two front caster wheels at least twice a year, they seem to pop off the rim. Again I properly cause that by the way I cut and what I cut. I have the Kawasaki 23 hp engine, service it once a year and it still purrs like a kitten. I have changed the battery once, the wife left the key on over the winter, Now I feel like I have gotten a great mower for the price. Yes, I have had some problems but I use it and I feel it is something no out of the ordinary to me. On a scale of 1-10 I would rate this mower an 8. The only down side I have is no matter what I do, it always seems to leave a small streak in the grass. I have checked the air pressure in all the ties, the blades are new, just weird but I can live with that. I would recommend this mower to any homeowner. I would not for the commercial grade cuttings but it is not advertised as such i do not think, not at the price you can get it for. I think you bought one that was not setup correctly by the seller you bought it from.
