talk to @Autoglym, he's yer man for quality grooming products and techniques down here in Welly

@promodone my 2007 525i in Wellington, give him a shout. -
Is it possible? I would say the swirl marks are moderate and cover the entire car. I don't own a polisher/buffer and don't really want to buy one at this stage. What products would you recommend?

Huge shout out to @promo. The dealership wanted to take out my radio and install hardware to get NZ stations on my 525i import at quite a cost, but Promo was able to do it fast and at a excellent rate with his knowledge of coding without having to install or remove any hardware. Give him a shout if you need some coding done!

In its natural habitat 😉

I have a lumpy idle on mine from cold, at times. Scanned it with my bluetooth obd2 scanner got a camshaft sensor fault, so replaced that, helped slot plus other odd habits when driving. It's still present at times, Going through service history, plugs were done years ago. So will be hitting the super cheap boxing day sales for some.

Spark plugs and coils is my go to idle/misfire fix.

looking good, Bozza! looks like a golf club carpark 😄

I use MyUS which is great - even has its own app for managing shipments.
-
god they’re glorious! Wish I had the funds to buy one.

@Eagle transmission filter kit from Amazon rrp over here $300 got it 40inc standard shipping, arrived 7 days later. I don't know how they do it but that's insane. Was supposed to show up on the 20th Not always that quick but that was incredible
-
That’s probably a little too extreme for my taste, but check out the Random BMW Pics thread, there are some very nice ones in there.

Ended up getting them from BM Workshop Auckland. Excellent service and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

180,000 kms. Vanos solenoids + gaskets installed. The engine is running smoother and has more mid-range torque. Unfortunately, hasn't fully gotten rid of my lumpy cold idle. I've noticed there is occasionally a puff of blue smoke on startup. PCV? Front + rear pads and rotors installed by Jon at Auto 38. Managed to source ATE parts from BM Workshop Auckland. Great service and reasonably priced. Highly recommend. The brakes feel great and the stopping power is immense. You can't go wrong with these brakes. Got the windows tinted last week. Took it to the same guy in Whanganui as I took the 530i to. Again, he's done a great job. I took the rear parcel shelf out too, which he said made the job a lot easier. I also had a few days spare so I spent some time on the paintwork. The paint definitely needed some love; it felt rough and lacked shine. Fortunately though, it had very few swirl marks. Using mostly AutoGlym products, I first gave the car a quick shampoo as it was covered in bugs from night-country driving. I then applied the Magma iron remover over the paint and rims and shampooed the car again. Then I clay barred the entire car, followed by another shampoo, polish and AutoGlym paint sealant. Really happy with the results! The paint has got so much more shine and is seriously smooth to the touch. Also took the M badge off. I'm liking the de-badged look at the moment, but I've got a 540i badge for it which I will put on eventually.

Still for sale, still getting daily driven and still receiving hilarious potential swaps

You mean like this 😁😂

Yeah they are can be slow sometimes in regarding to dispatching, depends on their international departure schedule or volumes as sometimes its very quickly received and sent. They are still the cheapest ive come across besides Amazon so i still use them for smaller US only items. Fedex via FCP covers the rest.
