That is a wireless charger. I like it as it doesn't take up one of the cupholders and it has a couple of additional charging ports for using wired charging with USB-A/C

Preventative maintenance week here for the Dog Car. Motul 5w40 oil change, replace Idler Pulley, tensioner and belt with new OEM parts, and install a VAC Motorsports Crank Seal Guard while we have the access.

Also got my kit from Modern Spare since I didn't feel like taking any more chances driving cross country without a spare. Very happy with the results. Not too shabby for 5 years old and 58k miles.

Did you opt for the "Complete Kit" from Modern Spare or did you simply just go with the "Wheel and Tire Only"?

I'm currently on the OEM run flats and hate not having a spare, especially since I'll be making the jump to Conti's sooner rather than later. Can't decide whether or not I want to carry a scissor jack or simply rely on AAA should the need arise.

Went with the complete kit with carrying case. Upon first glance and feel, the included jack seems higher quality than the previous widow makers I've had in previews BMWs and VWs.

I appreciate the response!

It's a bit of a change for me, but I recently purchased a 2017 sDrive35i. The last car was a 2009 E93 335i (N54) mildly modded, but insurance totaled it after a hit-and-run. The X5 is much more practical since my kids have grown a bit in the past few years, and I can't wait to start adding my personal touches to it. For now, it's a blank canvas with only having the windows tinted, but I absolutely love it so far!

Morning. Had the standard grey parts painted BMW Cerium Grey (not the copper/bronze version). I'm thinking of painting the center part (now black) in the same color. Enjoy your day! KR

Went out tonight for some testing on my quest for a 3.9x 0-60mph on the current setup before spring. Beat my previous best (also attached), but not quite there yet. Taking the spare I just got out and using up 1/4 tank of fuel before tomorrow nights runs lol.

Not too shabby for stock turbo and E50 fuel.

Installed Coilovers. Now alignment time.

How close to your actual run times were these?

[FCX5]

Very red and blue! LOL

To be honest Dragy was my only benchmark, I don't have a VBox or Racebox to compare against sadly.

I thought by saying "before tomorrow nights run" that meant you were going to the track with it.

Oh! Sorry I misunderstood. But I achieved my goal! Sub 4 second to 60mph for stock turbo n55 x5. Tuner and I believe it to be a record.
