#3. Re: Alignment - from Marc Plante

Date: Fri, 26 May 2006 10:31:02 -0400 From: "Marc Plante" <marcva@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Alignment If you swap your strut hats you can get lots of negative camber. Something in the area of -2.5 to -2.8 IIRC. This is great if you're on the track a lot and eat the outer half of your tires. On long highway commutes you'll eat your inner tire shoulders. Zero toe will tend to be a little squirmy on the highway at speeds and may get darty under heavy breaking. If you've driven with it that way in the past and like it, fine. Otherwise, I'd stick to stock. There's a reason this car was voted best handling for under $100k several years in a row. The car may seem to push too much for your liking, but if you drive with rear seat passengers or a load in the trunk, that dynamic changes fairly drastically. I find it very difficult to demonstrate a push with my car full of passengers on the local skidpad. Marc Plante E36 M3/4 Vienna, VA

#4. Interior colors? - from Scott Spangenberg
Top
Date: Fri, 26 May 2006 10:08:54 -0700 (PDT) From: Scott Spangenberg <cpmustang2001@yahoo.com> Subject: Interior colors? I ordered a pair of replacement door threshold covers from the dealer for my '95 M3. These are the plastic pieces that cover the door gasket along the sill. When I picked them up today I noticed right away that they looked too dark. The computer only shows black, beige, or gray, and these are gray, but weren't there two shades of gray offered? My car is the Dove Gray and these definitely look like the darker gray. Anybody have similar experience ordering interior trim from the dealer?

#9. window probs - from Gary Preece
Top
Date: Sat, 27 May 2006 11:45:22 -0400 From: "Gary Preece" <gary.preece@insightbb.com> Subject: window probs Hey Guys/Gals, My window will not drop a little when the door is opened. It actually will go up a little when the window is down and then the door is opened. It is like something got connected backwards or something. When it was in the shop for a motor rebuild they disconnected the battery and messed with the regulator, but said the carrier was bent and now fixed. I have tried re-initializing many times per the Bentley, but to no avail. The auto up/down feature works fine and the passenger door works correctly. Any suggestions? Thanks. Gary 95 M3
