Nobody has answered why this is a stage 3 tune. Isn't it supposed to be stage 1 when your car is 100% stock? Maybe I don't understand this well.

Welcome to the Forums!! I have Active Steering & Roll Stabilization and my steering feels awesome!!! Definitely doesn't feel light or disconnected from the road, so my guess is that you most likely do not have Active Steering. If you post a pic of the passenger side front of your engine bay I will tell you if you have it. That's where it's located and should have metal hydraulic lines coming out of it.

I went to take the photos, but couldn't upload them to the forum or any of the free photo hosting sites (I tried like 15) because my work firewall didn't allow me. But now that I see the photos, I think the problem is pretty clear. That white fastener must have broken. The only solutions seem to be to replace the entire trim or somehow glue it. I don't love either option. I will post the photos from home later.

Looks like the wood trim is loose? From what I can tell, you seem to be missing the receiver that secures to the IP hole and then the metal pin from the wood trim secure to the receiver. That's if I am reading the pics correctly... I believe the small receiver is white and has a square face on it. You need to push it in the IP and then rotate it 90 degrees to lock it in place. I'm sure replacements can be ordered through the dealer.

Looks like it #9. There are several of them through for the trim. If you are missing this, the trim will not stay fixed properly. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...48&hg=51&fg=95
