You probably dont care at all but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot my password. I love any tricks you can offer me

@Sage Seth instablaster :)

@Brandon Augustus Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Brandon Augustus it worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thank you so much, you really help me out!

@Sage Seth no problem :D

Great idea. Will do!

Thanks for watching and o appreciate the kind words!

Great suggestion. Thanks!!

@@TommyLGarage If you end up going to any events anytime soon please do let me know, I am just over in SE PA and looking for track days, events, etc. Have a silly 700+ rwhp E34 and a F30 328 daily :) Love the channel.

Will do! I'll be posting it on my channel

Will look into it. Thanks!!

Hi. Yes. Suck out the old one and put the new fluid inside then the pressure Will push the old one out

Amro Assaidi never mind asking questions! The more the merrier. Springs are Macht Schnell. 1.1 inch drop up front and 0.9 in the rear.

Yes the procedure is identical. No need to reset anything and no matter manual or automatic

From what I understand it should, as ABS pump just has lines running through it. If you are talking about a master cylinder, then there’s a special procedure to bleed that. But with ABS pump you should be fine

For a novice I say every few track days . For me I flush before every track day

Thanks for the love!

I said same thing! Clever editing LOL

Don’t get it. Just squeeze the bottle and evacuate like that. Easier and cheaper

Yes it is part of the same system. Technically I could have bled the clutch too

Not at all.

Precisely

Of course!

I didn’t need to do it. I’ll do it next time

Ruben Jacob email me at got6speed@gmail

Nope. This is it. That’s what I do for the track

Tommy L Garage I appreciate all your responses! I just changed my rear diff fluid. Just got transmission and brake flush remaining.

Hahah

2 bottles will be enough for sure, especially with this method.

What’s going on??

A Heated Mess oh yes. And I do use these cleaning pads....

Yep, DOT 4 all day

Yes but for these brakes I suggest Motul RBF600.

I usually use about a bottle and a half

Nope. It pushes the fluid that’s already in the cylinder

Yes this procedure should be the same

Wasn’t needed and too difficult:)

Haven’t tried yet.

Nunez Barbarossa It all came down to the fact that I really enjoy turbocharged engine. Even though the exhaust note on the V8 is a lot nicer, I still prefer forest induction. Besides the seats, the electronics, and the overall looks all completed it for me. I’ve decided that what I really like about the E90 is the sound only - everything else the F80 was the winner. Tail lights are LED - headlamps might be upgraded soon but I do like the angel eyes.

Tommy L Garage Interesting..i guess if you're into turbocharged engine f80 is a no brainer..it looks better and have newer tech..you also seems to like the hud and the auto rev match which e90 didnt have..thanks for replying,it really cures my curiosity there😂

Savage Turk It is to prevent them from falling down at track days. After you come down from the track and your brakes are really hot, when you park the heat from the brakes can melt the glue from the weights and they will simply fall down. Having this tape helps them stay together

NJMp. Look at motorsportreg.com

Zen0s I got it at harbor freight. You can find it at any hardware shop or even Home Depot. But honestly the below will work better: amzn.to/2lAeGar

Tommy L Garage shoot! Actually found one like yours on Amazon... Hope it works well. Thx Tommy!

Oh I’m sure it will. Just keep pumping! Hehe

Shoot me an email at got6speed @ gmail and I’ll make you a set

Nice catch

You’re talking about the service light? It’s very easy to

@@TommyLGarage yes, says brake service, I’m gonna follow your instructions how to flush the fluid, Need how to reset?

Meant to say brake service, sorry

Thanks! I’m not sure. When is it ??

It's April 21 8 a.m.-5 p.m. I went to the wanna go fast half mile races in Florida now I'm hooked

Chris Baines might be tough. Any other events you’re going to ?

not sure yet just trying to figure good events to go to and meet other car guys... just moved recently from florida lol the dragstrip in jersey closed so not much events to do on the weekend..

Can you elaborate please?

Air can be trapped in the dcs system as well so to properly flush and bleed the entire system you should activate the dsc pump so it pushes everything out of the entire system. You avtivate it with ista before you flush and bleed on every caliper

@@sanjinred how you active the system. ?

@@christianmedina9908 With DIS or another diagnostic tool able to communicate with the DSC system where you can activate bleed mode if you want to change the entire fluid, not only some of it

@@sanjinred or INPA ;-)

That’s odd. Must be faulty

Not really. It works fine like this.

@@TommyLGarage yeah it works fine the way you did it. But if you wanted to do it as it was designed then the DSC pump needs to be bled of any air bubbles too. Just letting others know.

Thank you! Cheers!

Tighten the cap a bit more

@@TommyLGarage I'm pretty sure my cap is fully on.. I'll try plumbers thread too. one more question: is it normal for the pistons to start popping out with 15 psi? My front ones don't do it at all but the furthest one the pistons pop out against the pads really strong. Won't budge. Could that also be a reason for leak?

Yes exactly the same

Tommy L Garage awesome thanks for the quick response

I did after this video :)

Nice catch :)

Supertec Racing I did that back in November. But good point !

The pressure actually does bleed the abs, that’s the point of getting the right pressure before bleeding the fluid.

ما القصة؟ I did! The car won’t start if you don’t press the clutch :). Thanks for watching man!

haha in my renault it will start normaly

ما القصة؟ what Renault do you Drive? Gotta love French cars.

Renault Clio III 2009

ما القصة؟ nice one. My uncle had a mid 90s Clio back in Poland

:)

Yes. It’s whatever feels tight enough

@@TommyLGarage is it common though for fluid to weep/seep out from where the rubber cap meets the bleeder valve at the base even after closing the bleeder valve tight?

@@ecliffg not common at all. Tighten it!

@@TommyLGarage it's pretty snug already and it feels like anything more would over tighten the valves.

Chester ONeill yes! You ?

Tommy L Garage yup. I got bumped to red run group though. Heard this one is sold out.

Chester ONeill awesome. See you there. How do you know what run group you’re in? I still don’t know mine.

Tommy L Garage I'm friends with an instructor and just by chance he happened to pull me as student. Yea kinda wierd though that we didn't get sent run groups or anything. Seems like registration closed super late. I guess when you tech you'll get all your stuff. I'm doing the 7-8 tech tonight.

Chester ONeill I will see you there tonight then! Let’s make sure we connect!

That’s how you do it

Mike Mike very nicely done! I might do it when I hit 40-50k miles. For now shifting and clutch both seem fine. But seriously great job. I’ve read through your thread and it quite impressive. Thanks for sharing!

Tommy L Garage as long as you’re not power shifting or dumping the clutch it shouldent have much effect for you besides the pesky 1-2 shift. However clutch pedel does seem easier to push from midway down. Modification is easy enough and I think you should do it and put it on your channel. If interested I can modify a new one and send it to you.

Why not? It’s super easy.

Not sure!

Because you’re a great sport!! Thanks for watching!!

Yes that’s correct

I believe 10mm

Thanks 🙏

11 mm
