Take a look a my old shift knob; has anyone else had this issue with discoloration. Almost a yellowey/greenish look. yuk!! I recently purchased a new one for $199.99.

Question: Did I miss something in my owners manual when it comes to TPS? Which is the left, right, front, rear ?

Yes, my cars has been lowered with Eibach springs by the dealer. After the alignment the entire job cost $525. I'm happy to report that everything fell back in spec, so no camber. Plus, the drop is only 1.0 all around. I got it done back in January 06 and since then it has settled nicely. I really can’t comment on the performance after the spring install due to the fact that I bought the car a day after Christmas and had the springs installed 3 weeks after.

WOW!!!

That thing just looks sexy... I love the 03 M - and it looks even better lowered.

What's next for it? Some black 20" Volks with a polished lip?

thanks and you read my mind. I'm seriously considering some black 20's. I love chrome, but it's too easy now days. Now, don't get me wrong about chrome rims, because they are nice, but............ time for something different. In the past I've always been laced up with chrome shoes.

These MHT's are calling me in my sleep

Interesting! My gear shift knob is wrapped in leather. Matches the black leather seating and looks very, very nice. The wood trim in my 2003 M45 is the dark wood (maple?), so the black leather knob goes very well with it!

I guess I certainly cannot answer your specific question! Sorry!

From the manual: "The order of tire pressure figures displayed on the screen does not correspond with the actual order of the tire position."

Not convenient, but I suspect that they were concerned about the confusion with tire rotations, etc. Plus, if one of the tires is off, it is probably a good idea to check all of them anyway!

Cool! Stands out very beautifully and uniquely in that black car color! It is not as nice on my silver M45.
