Z4 E89 - Upgraded the standard steering wheel to the M-Sports steering weel
I didn't really like the standard steering wheel of my Z4 E89 sDrive28i, so I ordered the M-Sports steering wheel and replaced it.
The part I ordered is 32307842925 - this is only the M-Sports heated steering wheel and not the media controls or airbag, I re-used those from the standard steering wheel. Procedure: - Disconnect the battery and wait 30 minutes just to be sure. - Touch some sort of grounding so you're not static-charged. - Use a small screwdriver to disconnect the Airbag. - Use the plastic wedge tools from an iFixit kit to pry loose the cables. - Unscrew the media controls, remove them from the standard steering wheel and screw them in place on the M-Sports steering wheel. - Use the same wedge tool to route all the cables back in their place. - Set the Torque Wrench to 62,5nm and fix the bolt on the steering wheel - Put the airbag back - Connect the battery again, started car and 0 error messages |

You're a brave man. Congratulations! Very cool upgrade, and that last picture is a classic. You owe her (him?) a ride!
I need to do a paddle upgrade on my '11 35is. I have the early originals, which are a nightmare. I've stopped using them after damn near over-running the redline, twice. Apparently BMW realized this and changed them quickly, but I'm stuck. Oh well, I like the stick better. |
