            Had to... the field paint wasn't too professional.

            Anyone know what style these rims are? I really like them.

                Almost done. The fiancée isn't too happy about the paint fumes that are in the entire house now but at least they're painted! :mellow:

                    Finally done. Passenger rear is slightly rubbing. I'll let itself do the adjustments.

                                Well smotth running values def indicates cylinders 1 and 2 misfiring at that time. BUt your fault codes show more, and a low fuel level fault also. When does the misfire occur? Id be inclined to either investigate cylinders 1 and 2 or clear all faults, make sure you have more then a 1/4 tank of gas and see what faults return. coils. plugs, injectors could all cause this.

                                  Plugs and coils have been replaced recently. Usually #6 always throws a code. The tank was full.

                                    I cant believe all the crap you can read off newer control modules.

                                    That would drive the OCD crazy with all the faults that come up

                                      You have no idea, I bought the scanner that can tap into every module in my e46. It is ridiculous what it will record, "low voltage passenger side mirror" for example. It was a shadow code so it wasn't actively happening. If you unplug anything it will remember. 

                                      Gets crazy, and that's on a 2000, imagine what the 2014 cars are like.

                                      ...

                                          Clear it, see what happens. Next time it comes on please get a real scanner and print codes. aka gt1 or isid. I mean how easy would it be to have burger run faults for you quick. Also do you have any tuning software on it or stock?
