Does it sounds differently than before?
Less loudly, less low tones maybe?

So color is DB 164.
Yes, you often see it on fully restored cars and I have to do it also on my car.

« Last post by Pawel66 on Today at 12:15:22 »Probably now is the time to adjust modulator pressure (if you changed oil and filter). Adjust the throttle switch as well.
Adjusting modulator pressure is not that difficult (if I did it myself it cannot be difficult).

« Last post by Pawel66 on Today at 12:13:11 »The one I have, changed a couple of years ago is connected to Webparts and I am connected to the dealer who gave access to me years ago. I pay the fee. I see the prices, PNs go from exploded diagram directly to order form that I push button and send to dealer.
Yes, I did have issues on access when changes were made, but resolved them with IT support.

« Last post by JamesL on Today at 10:22:01 »It’s “black”… same as the colour inside the trunk or on the sill covers IIRC, which is not black but a super dark grey. It was painted black so the plate didn’t “shine” through the grille from the front. A real bugbear of mine when people say “expertly restored” and there’s a big shiny plate behind the grille.
