The black/violet wire is indeed for the Immobiliser and serves only that function. I would still check to make sure you got the right ones, because those wire colors tend to change over the years and what was once red, might actualy purple... ...just a thought. As a practice, it isn't a good idea to just cut wires.

Tom, your gathering pics are always awesome but there is always a pic in there where it looks like the leader makes a wrong turn up a country road and everyone follows him and now they can't turn around and get out.

Thanks, guys, so I guess it's normal and will go away eventually. I'll check back in if it doesn't go away.

That's a good point, You do have some important say so because of your misfortune, I was using the pic as a example, They're through out my race car and required because of rules and the amount of pressure.

Just an update, I replaced the oxygen sensor for that bank, just to be sure. The problem is the same. I have also noticed that th check engine only comes on, on a cold morning. I once warm up the DME before starting and the light does not come on. I am now thinking solder issues or caps on the DME. Will post again

Banks, I use a thin (very thin) bead of REINZOSIL (made by Victor Reinz Co.) High temp sealant on BOTH sides of the gasket and then bolt everything back together by hand-tightening - let sit like that for about 15 minutes and then do your final torque.

How much is it from the dealer Andre, are you close to one? Although I've not changed any hose on the current car, I did on a previous one and didn't use BMW hose. It Wasn't a good result. Anything I've read subsequently has been to use fuel grade oem hose, and I believe it.

Easiest? Drop Jud a note and ask the vehicle build sheet. To test for yourself: Turn the ignition to II. If AHK is installed (and working), the AHK symbol in the instrument cluster should light up yellow for a short moment. The symbol looks like 4 wheels steering in the same direction. ASCII art: Code: /---/ | | /---/ It's the lower most right symbol on the ...

The 3/4 cut rear is a hot set up with H&R fronts, If your not getting outer tire ware, Why install the plates? From what i've seen, They benefit the stock suspension only.
