I'll try to look into more waxing options. Thanks!

Will do. I still have to check out all the products you suggested at Blade. Will buy some more microfiber towels and will stop using the chamois. Maybe this weekend! =)

Unfortunately these China made mud guard set doesn't fit with 2017 M3. Although the front guard screw holes can be aligned with those under the fender, the sides won't align nicely. The rear guards will not align nicely also.

So this 1300php mud guard set is unusable for the 2017 M3 hatchback (I guess for the 4 door as well). Hopefully I may be able to sell these at OLX to recover my expenses.

Im also selling mine for dirt cheap for 600php. I think it fits best in 2014-16 models

I have finally traced where the brake pedal noise is coming from. It looks like a vacuum diaphragm brake booster:

So is that a good thing or a bad thing? Mine still makes that pedal noise but braking seems normal.
