1998 Cali:
  • Degreased and cleaned the underbody, tranny and engine
  • Tranny drain and refill with Redlne MTL
  • Replaced Tranny mounts



  • Installed the lower sport panel and chops. I had not come across this panel previously for the Sport bumper.


  • Coolant and hose check
  • Oil and Filter change. Spent an hour looking for the filter wrench. Finally ended up using oil filter pliers. I'll find a replacement for the plastic top I marred up removing.
  • Charged up the battery
  • Located a pair of Style 68s and a pair of tires to get mounted out of the parts locker.
  • Organized the Parts locker. I can find stuff now and walk in without moving a bunch of stuff.
  • Found an extinguisher and first aid kit I'll mount in the hatch are like my 97.
I'll have to do the stereo upgrade after work tomorrow.

Looking forward to L.A. drive this week for Bimmerfest. The Cali is in great shape for the drive just now. Maybe, I'll actually clean the car for the trip...
