Peter, Call Bill Arnold (BMW Repair God and GGC's Track Scrutineer) at 415-459-BMWS. His shop is in San Rafael. He works alone most of the time so it's hard to get appointment (which is why I didn't post this - I need to get in, too <g>), but it sounds like you need big help.

I can't think of a single station around here (Winston-Salem, NC), but I am mainly interested in buying in barrels anyway, since my dad and I can both run the stuff in our race cars. Thanks for the heads up. -Bryan Watts > > Out East, Unocal is the racegas of choice. 107-109(ul),117(l), 121(l) and > versions that are oxygenated and even some with a little nitromethane mixed > in.

#9. Brake Flush - from John

Date: Tue, 4 Jul 2000 23:16:00 -0700 (PDT) From: John <m3john@yahoo.com> Subject: Brake Flush Hi, I have never flush my brake before so this may seem to be a simple answer. Is it possible for the dealer to bleed and flush your brake without taking off the wheels? For the shade tree mechanic, we have to remove the wheels right? But with the dealers and a lift, is it the same? Thanks, -John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Kick off your party with Yahoo! Invites. http://invites.yahoo.com/

#10. UUC front shifting arm bushings heads up revisited - from RonStygar@aol.com
Top
Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2000 05:37:09 EDT From: RonStygar@aol.com Subject: UUC front shifting arm bushings heads up revisited I recently purchased a set of the UUC oval bushings for my '00 M coupe. Based on what I received, the initial warning continues. If you order a set of their bushings, measure them before you take your car apart. A sloppy bushing to eliminate slop doesn't make sense to me. Ron@unofficialbmw.com FLY BMW Marlborough, CT www.unofficialbmw.com/ronstygar.html
