          Could one of you check your brake light pedal & see if it hits this switch when the pedal comes back. I can seem to get my brake pedal to travel back to this switch & I have loosened the brake booster bolt inside the car.

                  Anyone ever remove the brake booster from an iX? Am I crazy to think its an easy task?

                  Going to pull it out of the parts car.

                    It's not too bad.. A little harder than a regular 325i due to the longer booster, but not more than an hour (if you get all the crap out of the way before hand..)

                      Aside from just not gettting tickets, the next best piece of advise I can give you guys is to lawyer up. 99% of the tickets get dismissed or reduced to a non driving violation. Worth the cash upfront to save your driving record and insurance costs.

                        I've got the # for a lawyer that's been awesome at getting me out of speeding tickets. Cost me $200 but a ticket was written down, saved my insurance.

                        I think I pay $150 a month for my fleet, gotta keep that record clean though.

                          That sucks. I have one ticket as of now (improper lane change) and will probably have a speeding ticket (court in a couple months.)

                          I will most likely do that for the speeding ticket I have coming up (45 in a 25.)

                            I use Fred Hopkins. Notorious on vwvortex. The last one he got dropped for me was a speeding too fast for conditions ticket. Basically bumped a guy on the freeway when changing lanes and couldnt stop when he did. I called him the morning of the court date and he has it dropped in a few hours. Not the best idea to wait till the last minute but I changed my mind about fighting that one myself. Hes good!

                              Yeah, no kidding. I'm counting down the days till I turn 25.

                                When I did mine I didn't have to show up at court at all, they just dealt with it and gave me a call when the deed was done.

                                I got a $400 ticket for evading pursuit (think being boxed in by one cop ahead and 3-4 behind, all with 3" of ground clearance and a 2 gallon gas tank in the middle of the desert) along the Mexican border on my Harley, wish I had known to lawyer up then.
