No, Revit doesn't really work for this industry (a lot of our work is retrofits and totally custom stuff). I can't imagine trying to use an architect program to design a drill site or a wharf for example.....

We actually have an office in Denver. They are more or less run separately from us. But nah, if I ever change jobs it would be to a different industry - I have it pretty good here. I got to choose (and...

E36 sensor is completely different, it's basically the same as the E30 (level switch). It doesn't measure temperature or actual level. Your DME is probably still set to read the E46 sensor.

Yeah I don't think the CAN controller has anything to do with it. The fan module is totally standalone (unlike the EKP, which does use PT-CAN).

If you want to test it I could send you my...

I don't use tapatalk so I have idea what you are seeing. Can you please post a screenshot?...

What fan control module was he running? It's been years since I bought a control module hacked off an M3 radiator. I have never tested it but I see no reason it wouldn't work.

Hell, the E90...

I think these problems are all solvable, and really the update to a newer version is a good thing. The potential security improvements and reduction in spam alone are worth it. The internet doesn't stand...

You only need the radiator outlet temp sensor if you are using the dme to control the electric fan. Otherwise, it's totally useless and you should code it off.

Mobile is pretty much broken on this version of vbulliten. I can't edit the previous post because of a forced reflow bug. I can't scroll down in the previous post and I can't insert the cursor below the...

I think I see what you're saying.

The login from mobile is super wonky. At first, I would have to login every time I visited. But when I did, it would load the website inside the login...

Not talking about turbo cars here. Anyone who wants a cheap turbo BMW is asking for trouble, and knows what they're getting into (hopefully). Almost as bad as owning a BMW with a V8 :p

It's a glitch with the forum.

I'm a structural designer. Basically I work with the engineers to make sure their ideas actually work. :p It's sort of a niche within the energy industry.



Actually I do way...

They don't really fail suddenly. There are error codes that give you hints, and you can change it to trigger a CEL. Besides that, the replacement pumps last way longer (200,000+ miles). The rest of the...

Replace the boots! The CV joints are not special, and any monkey in a driveline shop can do it. But letting the grease out and dirt in, they're going to be shot anyway.

They are way better, really. Suspension and chassis stuff especially. I'm at 150k in my E90 (basically the same thing), and I'm just starting to think about replacing the shocks. Control arms? Subframe?...

An E91. ;)

I just hit my 12 year anniversary - wow, time flies.

Needless to say, I like my job or I wouldn't have stayed so long. That, and there's really nothing comparable in my area that will pay...

I don't think it's your IAC then. If it completely dies, it's silent.

Do you still have the original 3 engine relays? Main, FP, and O2 heater? I'd replace those as a matter of basic maintenance...

I just tested it and it worked for me - both my work email and another gmail address worked just fine. I wonder if it's going to their spam folder.

Although the registration process is quite...
