Re: stuck accelerator
When the car is moving, it's manageable. But the more you slow down, the greater steering effort will be. And at a standstill....have fun with that. You can try it out if you want to see how it feels by FASing (hypermiler lingo for forced auto stop). Basically put it in neutral while moving (maybe 2...

Re: stuck accelerator
You give the public too much credit. They barely know where the gas a brake pedal are, and you expect them to know what the "N" position does or that you can turn the key while the car is moving? If all 4 systems (accelerator, braking, transmission, ignition) fail at the same time, then yo...

Re: Thoughts on Summer Tires
Hankook Ventus V12 Evo
Continental ExtremeContact DW
Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta
Falken FK452
Toyo Proxes T1R
General Exclaim UHP

Re: Anyone else got a modern BMW?
What year/model do you have? I have an 06 330i and have none of your issues. Well the reverse thing I've never tried, and my key fob costs I think $300+ to replace because my car is keyless.

Re: Gas stations and gas mileage
I almost exclusively use Costco gas. Meh, same shit. Never noticed a difference with "name brand" or "top tier" gas at all.
