Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Just had my C2 in for winterizing, and the tech let me know that they noticed the plastic where the CAI fits into the intake was getting brittle from heat. They were concerned it might start to break up and bits would get ingested. The replacement part was cheap, $60 or so. There were, at least at one time, several guys here who had done this mod. May be worth a look-see.
Thanks for asking. Nah, I gave her a reprieve. I found the arguments in favour of keeping it persuasive. Pretty much every option ended me up with less car for more money, and my mechanic looked at my like I'd been smoking crack when I floated the idea there. The one thing I'll say for this car that I wouldn't have said about any of my BMWs is that it's fun at any speed. Even dry cleaning speed.
The turbo is still on my radar for someday, though
