| My biggest problem is traction (summer tires). My second biggest problem is that my front lip is 1.5" from the ground, so I'm basically a snow plow :P |

My car is very good with snow tires but the low front *discontinued* bumper makes me cringe every time I drive over one of those ice-turds that falls of peoples mud flaps.
I'm a nervous wreck. |

| My car is good in the winter (stock ride height and good tires) but some how I shredded the cord for the block heater and it was just dragging along the ground. I had the car at Edmonton BMW yesterday for an oil change and told them to replace it (even though I have never used it and never intend to). $150 later I thought I should have just cut the cord and left it. lol |

haha. tell me about it.
about a year ago, i went to Edmonton BMW for few check ups.
i had to change my fog light bulb, so I bought PIAA bulbs and brought it there to.
i was kinda lazy to change it myself, so while i was there I asked them to replace it for me since i bought and brought the bulbs too.
ok.
i was expecting to pay about $20~30 for the labour of bulb replacement. which my bad for being lazy.
guess how much they charge.
$95!!! when i saw the bill, i was like OMFG!!! they fuckin' charged $95 for front fog light bulb change!!! and labour ONLY.
:eek: :mad: :banghead:
i learned a lesson hard way. since then i'm just doing everything myself for the stuff i can. :tear: |

Awd drift is so much fun, Wolfdio cruises in his Awd Mazda and scares the crap out of me when he slides it, I am so used to the way RWD handles in a slide!
I am happy I got some winter boots on my merkur only problem is the snow has been so soft that when I go to slide I just remove the snow from the asphalt! :mad:
COME ON SNOW! |

Edmonton BMW is only charging $108 plus gst for E46 oil change. lol
But considering that is approx every 20k and most other cars would have had 4 $30-35 oil changes in that time it really isn't that bad. |

yes.
and highly recommand to get membership with BMW club.
it will give 15% off parts and 10% off labour.
for $50 annual membership it's not bad at all. :D |

Do you really think it is worth it? I thought about it, but to save the 50 bucks (I actually thought it was 60) on stuff you need to spend about 500 bucks at sponsors. I can't see my self spending that much yearly at the places you actually get discounts from. :dunno:
I know there is the events, but I check the events every once and a while and I haven't seen anything interesting listed on the site (currently there is an X5 viewing which you can do for free anytime you want, and a meeting). |

mostly, get discounts from dealer services.
i think i spent more than $500 dollar at dealer this year for parts and labour.
oil change twice, differential, tranny fluid change, hid/drl retrofit LCM, obc/alarm retrofit-recoding obc, bought some parts(ie. rubber mats,etc)
i think i spent well over $500. :p |

| Yeah, when mine is off warranty I can see myself spending that much a year, but for now I sure hope I don't have to spend that much in a year. :beer: |
