My two cents. If initial heating of the wheel got you a little movement initially. Unless you're heating the wheel quickly enough and in the right spot to expand while not also heating up the hub, you may get somewhere. But once the heat starts to transfer the hub, you lose some of the...

Crickets. I guess my thinking is, if comfort wise, it is similar to stock, other than the aesthetic benefit of lowering (which may be enough), do you even notice the performance benefits if not tracking the car? Is it noticeable even during normal driving or only during more spirited/canyon...

Still on the fence on going to coilovers for aesthetics/daily driving performance on my 2022 M3P. A slightly lower stance and stiffer suspension seems like it would take this car to the next level as far as looks/fun but for $5K + if you add all the other bits (solid bushings, camber arms...

Was thinking about adding the mud flaps too. Maybe not. 😄

Looking to lower 2022 M3P. LIkely going with MPP Comfort adjustables. This is my daily driver so just curious how bad/annoying the scraping is with 1" to 1.5" drop? My previous Audi S5 is on coilovers and pretty low. Settled over a few years and I never raised it to compensate. Pretty much...

I think the 1" to 1.5" drop and handling benefits would really improve my 22 M3P. Used for long daily commute 3 days per week. Thinking I will get the adjustable comforts and the rear adj. control arms just to alleviate any tire wear concerns as suspension continues to settle over time. Any...

For me, they put the key cards in the center console. Not sure if the car was already unlocked before I accepted delivery with my phone. But might want to touch base with your SC if you have a concern with your phone not working when you pick up.

😁 So, in the crunch of my EDD going from Dec/Jan as of Friday morning to "You have 3 days to finalize everything and pick up your car", I did end up financing and insuring through Tesla so I could get everything done and pick up Sunday. Likely not possible otherwise to get all that done on a...

Anyone still following my saga. I ended up just opting to finance through Tesla today to insure that I could take delivery within the 3 day window requirement. Unfortunately I've been sick with strep throat since Thursday and still not feeling great. But will make the trip to the SC to pick up...

Good to know. After being on hold for over an hour and a half, someone finally picked up. They said they would put me me on a brief hold while they get in touch with the local rep that could help me. Putting me on hold cut me off. And right at 6PM when they closed. After holding for almost...

Yes. I just don't think the timing is going to work out and I don't want to be scrambling with CU Monday morning only to not get it done. I will likely just finance through Tesla and refi with the locked rate I have with my CU. That's assuming Tesla doesn't have an early pay off penalty?

One hour plus later. Still on hold with SC. The SC rep said they were closed on Monday. Benefit of the doubt, maybe she thought this weekend was Labor Day weekend? Because the SC hours are clearly posted on the Tesla site: Open Mon through Sun / 10AM to 6PM.

Here we go. EDD pushed to Dec 11 to Jan 22 on Tues. Then this morning around 11AM, out of nowhere, I got a text stating VIN assigned (344XXX)! After having two pre-approvals expire on the portion that I'm financing, I followed the sound advice of many in this thread to wait until I had a VIN...

Bubblehead, Great post and feedback. Very helpful. Thanks for taking the time. Hopefully others will also chime in. Might be a topic for new thread.

Regarding range, I thought the current recommendation was to only charge to 80% and not to let it go below 20% to maximize battery range. Latest Youtube video I saw had the real world range of the M3P at 280 mi from 100% charge running at a steady 70 mph for the duration of the trip. So if you...
