Getting the 00A6D1 Additional water pump error on my e90 Was reading it's not a big deal but I'd rather be error free haha and read this can be fixed by changing the carbon brushes instead of buying a whole new pump I was just wondering anyone know where I can get these brushes? Apparently the type needed is something like CarbonBrushes Coals For DC motors, drives 12-24 Volt 5x5x10mm Anyone done these before? Cheers

apparently they are,so all the forum posts I found on the web said,with H&R race slightly lower,was going to go race but assumed it would be to low but now I am thinking should of gone for thew extra 10mm, all in all tho it looks better no gap in the arch and no rubbing but just not the slammed look I was expecting, doesn't bottom out on driveways etc also,any lower and it probly would so for drive ability I think they are perfect here are some before n afters,afters kind of sh*t due to dark in garage and no room to stand back and take a pic,but ill take a full side shot tomorrow just need to whack on some spacers now to push the wheels out

I ended up getting some Grills in Chrome Black, Cost $150, really nice quality , don't feel thin and cheap like a lot of the cheaper ebay ones I think they look pretty cool, something a bit different from the Matte or Gloss Black was also thinking of trying to get the lower mesh done in chrome black also here is a few pics (angel eye just blew lol) doesn't quite look as good in pictures though also had a spare grill and some plastidip so thought id play around and tried a white border grill which I actually think looks quite sweet,what do you all think?

i'll probly get laughed at for this lol and they ain't run flats but if ever you decide to go non run flat the Federal Evoluzion ST-1 tires are great for their price, Affordable,Nice Sidewall and tread and pretty great performance for the price.

I got Eibach Sportlines on my e90 as the were spose to be the lowest of the Eibach, 45-50mm front and 35mm rear. They look good,better then stock but still not as low as I was expecting. I have an M sport but i think it only had standard suspension, according to Vin Check I done. I am rolling on 225/40/18 tires as for ride difference,I don't notice much at all, maybe a touch more bounce but I was expecting it to be like riding a trampoline according to posts id read about doing springs without shocks etc, but it drives fine to me, unless I'm really speeding down a country road and hit some random bump then the car bounces 10ft in the air lol, and if I hit a pothole then you feel it. if you haven't already done your springs you should check out Demon Tweeks, alot cheaper then NZ I ordered mine from there for something like $400nz including postage and installed them myself Piece of piss

nice id love a 335d so hard to find here

did you end up buying this

i ordered Springs 2 weeks ago (were not in stock at the time) and Air Filter Kit last week air filter showed up on Monday,Springs this morning

wow totally different experience to what I had then,they f**ked around so much with me I ended up fixing most the sh*t myself

interested in purchasing exterior cosmetic mods for my 2010 e90 LCI it already has the M sport kit,but want to make it look better and more agressive like a M3 replica Bumper or any Front Lips,Splitters that can make the LCI M tech bumper better Aftermarket head lights(blackout/smoked/new angel eyes) Skirts,better Rear Defusers just anything that could add to the overall look of my car,if you got any old parts laying around post them up with a price cheers

what about BM workshop in Botany? spoke to some guy named Greg seemed like a nice guy

I was shopping around for some new Kidney grills for my Alpine white e90 I was wanting Gloss black ones,then I came across a vendor offering them also in Chrome Black has anyone ever see these on a car and have any idea how they would look on a white e90?

hey my BMW is due for a service after the lock down is lifted just wondering if anyone can recommend a good trust worthy BMW specialist in Pukekohe or in a Suburb close by,has to be MTA approved to keep my Mech warranty current. cheerst

off topic but how did you find dealing with Autospot?

hey cheers man it drives great and love driving it on the open road, wouldnt mind getting a performance kit for it tho, just to make it a touch more responsive 89,000kms on the clock at the moment,how can you tell its NZ new? yeah I only found out about the timing chain issues afterwards and now I'm so paranoid about it lol I kind like the black rims, I want to black out the grill and I think it really needs some nice side skirts a more aggressive back bumper,and to be lowered where can I get the white Angel eyes?
