On Monday, I'm driving from Virginia Beach to Fairfax but first I must get a biscuit from Hardees because there isn't one up here. I go to roll my window up in the 7 series and the window regulator breaks. So I had to drive 3 hours in 25 degree weather with my window half up. Biscuit was delicious though. I fixed it by trading it in and getting a new car.

driving home from work today, and the typical "cooling system only lasts around 100k miles" bug hits my e90. limped it to a shop for either a new thermostat or water pump or both.


the loaner car they gave me is a mid-90s camry with well over 300k miles that wants to idle at 2k rpm even when warm. it's a far cry from my bmw, but hey... "free loaner"

Pretty sure I have a vaccum leak in my 240. RPMs dropped real low when decelerating this morning. Plus the Outback has a blown head gasket!

Are you talking about a mass air flow (MAF) sensor? Do you really sell cars? If you do, maybe learn more about them....?


Wait, did you seriously go to AutoZone and ask for an "air filter sensor"?
