I’m using a three suction mount. It helps to get solid video at high speeds and its angles are adjustable. I have some examples on my instagram of it on my e92.

I love taking photos of this car at night. The laser lights look absolutely stunning and I really like that small led strip in the middle. I don’t mind the blue plastic inside the housing.

Eventually I'll go with the three suction mount

Wow, they actually swapped the motor? What's your feeling about the car now? I had a motor swapped on my N63 engine and was very satisfied with the outcome. I kept the car another five years because of it. You nat be leasing so ut doesn't matter.

Yup; full blown long block motor swap. Final cost to BMW was quite hefty!! Crazy that the MBS recall actually resulted in them replacing it. You can read my saga in the MBS recall threads.

So far so good. I've only put on about 40 miles since I picked it up, but seems to be running smooth.

Insane situation and I thought there was no shot in this market that I'd have my car back in 30 days once I heard I needed a new motor and it had to come from Germany. Surprised is an understatement.

Id honestly rather have the whole motor replaced than part of it in piecemeal (If I had to have it done).

On my 2017 RS7 I actually blew the engine at 2500 miles and Audi NA offered me a full replacement and 10k but I knew that the value of the car was diminished. Any Audi dealer could review the R/O and see it was a replaced engine and I would get fucked on trade so I actually negotiated a full cash buy back.

Im not sure what happened with KnightedBMW and hope the carfax and other reports do not show such a process was done.

Shit--- but you accepted the repair? Does that void your recourse?
