Anyone else switch to aluminum? Any other parts like that, that I need to replace. I have no idea why BMW does this. It may save a few pounds of weight. Please BMW. The B48 is a great engine but this plastic BS is annoying. You are doing so well on reliability. Toyota-Lexus are sinking cause the twin turbo V-6 disasters. Audi reliability is awful. Mercedes is only a little better.

Look who has entered the Supercar Chat after a long departure... 👀
I like what I'm hearing and seeing. From these renders, I'm getting Murcielago vibes!

In a surprise move, Audi has unveiled a 987 hp supercar that arrives in the first half of 2027
Audi has introduced the all-new Nuvolari supercar, which is limited to 499 units.
The model features a plug-in hybrid powertrain with a twin-turbo V8 and three motors.
Car has a combined output of 987 hp and a top speed in excess of 217 mph.
Audi’s revival won’t just include a modern-day TT as the automaker has confirmed plans for a new supercar. Known as the Nuvolari, it’s a high-performance hybrid that will serve as a limited edition R8 successor.
Set to become Audi’s fastest and most powerful production vehicle, the car features a plug-in hybrid powertrain that consists of a mid-mounted twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine, a 7.3 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, and three axial flux electric motors. Two of the motors are housed on the front axle, while the third is sandwiched between the engine and transmission.
This setup enables the Nuvolari to produce a combined output of 987 hp (736 kW / 1,001 PS), which easily surpasses the similar Lamborghini Temerario. In fact, the model only has 15 hp (11 kW / 15 PS) less than the Lamborghini Revuelto.
Needless to say, the Nuvolari is an absolute rocket as it blasts from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 2.6 seconds. 124 mph (200 km/h) comes 4.2 seconds later, while the top speed is in excess of 217 mph (350 km/h).
In typical Audi fashion, the car is outfitted with quattro all-wheel drive. However, the company further developed the system to anticipate your needs.

As the automaker explained, the latest version of quattro collects and analyzes an assortment of driving data including steering angle, acceleration, yaw rate, and grip levels. Thanks to all this information, the Nuvolari can anticipate a potential loss of grip and proactively respond.
Audi didn’t go into many specifics, but noted the model can adjust torque distribution and apply the brakes in “targeted interventions”. The car can even use active aerodynamics to adjust downforce according to the situation at hand.
Owners will find four primary drive modes, which can be selected by a rotary controller on the steering wheel. E‑Hybrid mode prioritizes fully electric use for short trips and urban driving, while Balanced tries to combine comfort with efficiency and performance. Dynamic mode “sharpens system response and enhances agility and precision,” while Dynamic+ cranks things up even further.

They’re joined by a Track mode, which allows for “targeted adjustment of traction control to driving style and available grip.” There are wet, dry, and race settings as well as a full off option.
The Nuvolari will become the first production vehicle to embrace Audi’s new design philosophy. As a result, it looks like a cross between the R8 and Concept C.

The front end is dominated by a vertical grille, which is flanked by slender headlights and large air intakes. The model also features a front splitter and S-duct, which “improves aerodynamic efficiency at the front axle — delivering additional downforce, reducing lift at high speeds, and improving cooling of the powertrain.”

Moving down the sides, we can see edgy carbon fiber bodywork and a modern interpretation of the R8’s iconic side blades. They’re joined by forged center-locking wheels, which are a first on a production Audi.
The wheels are backed up by a new Audi Ceramic Pro braking system, which has been designed specifically for track use. It has massive 16.5-inch (420 mm) front discs that are grabbed by ten-piston calipers. The rear brakes are also beefy as they come in at 16.1 inches (410 mm) and have four-piston calipers. The brakes also have an energy recuperation system as well as a specially designed internal cooling system, which increases heat dissipation by up to 21%.
Out back, there’s a ventilated fascia as well as slender taillights and a massive diffuser. They’re joined by an active rear wing, which has three positions known as closed, low downforce, and high downforce.

The wing can be operated automatically or manually, and it functions as an air brake. Audi went on to note it can deliver more than 882 lbs (400 kg) of downforce under the right conditions.
Like the Concept C, the Nuvolari has a minimalist interior with a two-tone design and anodized aluminum accents. Audi didn’t say much about it, but confirmed the supercar has lightweight sport seats with a carbon fiber structure.

Elsewhere, we can see a digital instrument cluster and a chunky infotainment system with a portrait orientation. They’re joined by a plastic ignition switch, a push-button shifter, and minimalist controls.

We can also see a flat-bottom steering wheel that appears to be wrapped in Alcantara upholstery. It sports prominent paddle shifters as well as plenty of knobs and buttons.
The Nuvolari rides on an Audi Space Frame and will be limited to 499 units. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in the first half of 2027 and Audi CEO Gernot Döllner said it “brings pure emotion and performance to the road. It also reveals how we are taking ‘Vorsprung durch Technik’ into a new era.”

Next is the back window. I'm thinking of not tinting that just for visibility and the car has the built-in sunshade. But will it look odd if I don't tint it?

For the last year or so, the BMW Art Cars have been travelling the world on their world tour and for the last couple of months or so, 11 of them have been displayed at Classic Car House in Copenhagen.

This is the largest exhibition of BMW Art Cars ever held in Northern Europe so a must see for me. Especially that 2 of my favourite ones were on display; #15 - Jenny Holzer / BMW V12 LMR / 1999 and #17 - Jeff Koons / BMW M3 GT2 / 2010 :cool:

The facility itself is set in some stunning grounds.
Classic Car House Copenhagen is much more than a museum though. It is a car hotel, meetings/event place, bistro, dealership and workshop; more photos on some of these later. In total, there are about 350 cars on site. If ever you are in the area, it is definitely worth a visit! Super friendly staff too.

The 11 Art Cars on display here:
#2. Frank Stella / BMW 3.0 CSL / 1976
#3. Roy Lichtenstein / BMW 320 Group 5 / 1977
#4. Andy Warhol / BMW M1 Group 4 / 1979
#7. Michael Jagamara Nelson / BMW M3 Group A / 1989
#10. César Manrique / BMW 730i / 1990
#11. A.R. Penck / BMW Z1 / 1991
#12. Esther Mahlangu / BMW 525i / 1991
#13. Sandro Chia / BMW M3 GTR / 1992
#14. David Hockney / BMW 850 CSi / 1995
#15. Jenny Holzer / BMW V12 LMR / 1999
#17. Jeff Koons / BMW M3 GT2 / 2010


I hope you enjoy the photos!

I thought I would park my i4 next to a fellow BMW friend at the airport car park.

Could be any used car to be concerned when purchasing but this is a historic on going issue with the X5, coolant leak issues (attached pictures). A shout out to the team at Scotts Auto Repair in Greeley, Colorado for catching this, they are a really nice group of people to work with. Note, odd that the dealership didn't catch this during their service check, hmm. Scotts are doing a pressure test on the engine today to determine what is taking place, one of the staff members felt it could be the residual of a bad water pump that may have been recently replaced but no history recorded on Carfax or other. Battery low and tires are cracking all around. Just wanted to share about the coolant leak hopefully the expansion tank is fine, not sure if there is a way they can determine how bad if at all, the condition is there.

Hi everyone,

I’m a technician, and I’m dealing with a persistent speedometer issue on my 2017 X1 F48 xDrive. After storing the car all winter, I disconnected the battery, which died, and in the spring, I recharged it and performed a battery reset. Since then, the speedometer readings have been off.

I pulled codes from the ABS module: the main fault is 03058D, described as "Signal Processing, Speed Center of Gravity, Sporadic Fault." I also had a previous code (CD944D), now cleared, which was "Signal, Actual Wheel Speed, 46.0.1, Invalid Transmitter, DSC." I physically inspected all the ABS sensors and wiring—no visible damage as well as tried to blow some air down into the holes to clean any potential debris on the reluctor rings. During a test drive, all sensors showed steady readings, except that the instrument cluster wheel speed data is extremely erratic... I'll be doing 10km/h and it says I'm going 80 km/h. In regards to the actual speedometer, it read about 40 km/h while I’m actually traveling around 70 km/h so it's alwasy about 30-40 Km off. To add to this it can sometimes read in the other direction, I'll be going 60 Km/h and it will read I'm going 100 Km/h.

I’ve tried a cluster reset, battery reset, ABS physical sensor inspection as well as pickups, code clearing, but the issue persists. Has anyone encountered this kind of discrepancy or have any suggestions? Is this a known module issue, or do you think it’s a coding or calibration problem? I'm a new BMW owner so I'm not sure if it needs updates or anything like that especially after being dead for the winter. Figured I'd reach out on here since nothing comes up on Identifix or Prodemand in terms of Diag.

Thanks so much for your help!
