What a Fast start in cold temps now verses the old plugs that have been in there close to 8 years. I let this go for a while , and don’t you know got stuck at work, would not start at all. Put in four new Bosch plugs and this baby fires up so fast, it feels like a new car, ha ha. I will test the old plugs later just for the heck of it. But I think this should be on schedule to replace the plugs either when you have a number of years on them, or slower starts etc. Did the work without removing fuel rail or anything , Best tool for this job I found was a simple Reversible closed end ratchet wrench. I found some Bundt wheels and tires at a salvage yard and put them on for nice look. Overall I am happy with the results. If it gets down to the single digits I want to try and start the 240d then and see. Next I need rear shocks not sure which brand , Mine are both leaking , I am leaning toward HD to raise up the rear about 1 inch. If possible , suggestions for HD style? Thanks

I installed Bilstein HD's on my 240 last year and it made a 100% difference for the better. Rode a little stiff at first, but now quite comfortable but firm.
