What did you do in your ALPINA today?
Re: What did you do in your ALPINA today?
After a ride around the block, I completed the change at the front and then gave 193 it’s first clean since I’ve had it. Pls don’t say anything because I’ve only used it 4 times in the last 3 months due to lockdown.

Re: What did you do in your ALPINA today?
I opened the roof today. It still works . Summer preps complete. Nothing exciting to report I'm afraid. Hopefully won't be long before we are all meeting up again. Festival of Speed first highlight of the year.

Re: What did you do in your ALPINA today?
Finally got round to replacing the original 105° thermostat with the 88° one I bought a couple of months ago. This is a well known mod amongst BMW V8 owners (Google it). The idea is the engine runs a bit cooler putting less strain on things.
Also dropped the bottom sump as I was curious to see if there were any pieces of broken timing chain guide. I was pleased to see the sump and engine internals looking very clean with no sign of debris.
New anti-freeze, oil and filters, so all is good.

That engine bay needs a bit of a polish next time you're in there

lovely job Dave
Re: What did you do in your ALPINA today?
That is a very tidy engine bay, looks like new. Something to aspire to, I will need to raise my game.
