My F30 Build

Finally got my F30 back on the road after 7 and a half months.

The car originally blew up before summer after one of the fuel injectors got stuck wide open and flooded the motor. Ended up having to replace the engine, and after a long process of figuring everything out, I finally got it back together.
Swapped in a 328i N20, got it fully custom tuned, threw on a new M Sport front bumper from Partify, and picked up a set of APEX ARC-8s. Also took care of a bunch of other stuff along the way.
It’s been a long 7 and a half months getting this thing back to where I wanted it. Definitely had some frustrating moments throughout the process, but I’m just glad to finally have it running and driving again.
Current setup:
2015 BMW 320i xDrive F30

328i N20 swap

Fully custom tune

M Sport front bumper from Partify

APEX ARC-8 wheels

Turbo and supporting mods

Still have a few plans for it, but for now, I’m just happy to have my car back. Figured I’d share it here and see what you guys think!

My 340i consistently started dropping rpms and shaking any time I come to a stop. Any ideas?

What tires should I get?

1 Upvotes

435i F32, rear tires are getting low and front tires were changed last time 6 years ago. Pirelli run flat tires.

Should I stay with my current setup? Or should I go with a different? I dont mind the run flats, thankfully no nail in any tires in 6 years of owning this car. I thought about non run flats but I do not have a spare. Any recommendations? Budget is decent but not expensive.

Drivetrain warning. Checked code, what does it mean?

BMW 330e 2018 sport
70k km (43.5k miles)

Was driving and the warning appeared. Warning remained for the rest of the night.

Next day when I restarted the car warning was gone and it hasn’t popped up since with normal city driving.

Came to get it checked anyways, I attached what the diagnosis says, I’d really appreciate any kind of feedback.

Thanks in advance!

Note: I also attached a picture of my smaller coolant as the liquid was below minimum, im not sure if this is relevant but wanted to attach just in case.

Window making creaking noise as I roll it up

1 Upvotes

Hey, my window has started making a weird creaking noise when I roll it up, I'm assuming it needs to be lubricated or something, if so is this easy to do? And if not what do I likely need to do?

Audio help

Hey everyone! I just picked up a 2014 and had a few questions I was hoping you guys could help me out with!
Audio Settings: How do I adjust the bass, treble, and other audio settings?
Speaker Recommendations: The speakers are pretty shot, so I’m looking to replace them. Does anyone have any recommendations for good-quality speakers that won’t break the bank?
Apple CarPlay: I’m also looking for a good plug-and-play CarPlay setup. If anyone has installed one they’re happy with, I’d love to hear your recommendations!
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
