    I am always worried about breaking down, maybe it's cause I'm an old man that worries a lot or maybe it because I am driving a 20 year old car with lots of miles on it. Either way it's a bummer to get stranded and it's good to have friends that will help you out. I'm glad you were able to make it home without being towed.

    Cheers,

    Jim

      loctite and torque it down to specs bdro. you don't want the caliper coming off while breaking at 65mph.

          Honestly the only things that actually need to torqued to spec are engine internals. The rest you just tighten that shit!

                    Because the car has a history of backing out.

                              I used Dieter's (1633 Market Street, San Diego, CA 92101 619.234.8106/fax 619.234.4884 info@dietersmotorsports.com) to do the PPI on an E39 we were going to buy for my wife and was happy with their job. The bill was around $200 but they saved me from buying a car that needed over $2000 in repairs.

                              Cheers,
