You need to specify 4 or 6 cylinder to get what your after. It makes a huge difference

Oxygen sensors dont normally cause a problem with missfiring at idle. Most oxygen sensor fault codes are due to something else and the oxygen sensor goes out of scale trying to lean or richen the mixture. Introducing a fault code because it has reached its trim limit. If you check live data and the oxygen sensor is cycling within range at idle, it is unlikely to be the sensor. Pity your so far away or I could check it for you. What was the actual fault code (word for word)???? There are about 6 different O2 fault codes.... Type of scanner ?? Or was the fault code numerical code only ?? Does his scanner have live data recall in real time ?? If the only fault code present is oxygen sensor (dependant on what the actual word for word code is) It is likley to be something else causing it. One of the most common problems on M42 & M44 engines is the crankcase ventilator valve (this will induce oxygen sensor fault code) With the engine running, undo the oil filler cap and try releasing it, if there is too much suction the valve is faulty. If its not that check for air leaks. Air mass sensor faults will also throw oxygen sensor fault codes too. While the air mass sensor is still working, but working out of scale it will not come up as being actually faulty, because it is still working, but out of scale. Idle Kg should be around 12kg, full load while driving around 450Kg Injectors, spark plugs and ignition coil faults will also throw 02 sensor fault codes. I'm not posting this to criticise your electrician, I've seen this alot of times. Oxygen sensor fault codes>>new sensor>>same problem. Because the scanner operator didnt know how to use the tool properly. Codes are not always the actual fault, they are, in alot of cases the result of something else that cannot be monitored by the DME. As an example M52TU & M54 engines will throw oxygen sensor fault codes when the hydraulic lifters are faulty. Hydraulic lifters cannot be monitored by the DME. An experienced person using a scanner and evaluating live data readings can confirm this fault by using and understanding the scanner tool he is using. Scanners are just tools. Experience and understanding fixes problems. You will probably be confused and frustrated by reading this. However I cant help you on a forum or over the phone. You could get your electrician to give me a call though. It might just save you some money and get your car right. Cheers Glenn

I've got a low rise apartment in Peninsula Drive, Cental Surfers. 4 Mins from Caville Ave 8mins to the beach. Can do rental deals if anyone needs somewhere to stay for a holiday

Get Johno to have a look and go from there then...Hes our tyre expert

And please lets not go there. Everyones had enough of that crap. I have no problem with low (done safely) I was just offering constructive criticism (advise) Cheers Glenn (an old hoon)

Just wondered thats all. I have a place there in Surfers.

Where in Brisbane ??

I have no problem with low if its done properly. My statement was " I think the height could be the problem" Has Johno seen it ??? I was going on the picture. I work on these 14hrs a day 5 days a week. It was an observation from the photo you supplied. I have a certed E36 75mm off the ground and I've got a sh*t load more clearance than you've got. But then I'm running Schnitzers 17 X 8.5 with 225/45/17 tyres. However I still think its a height & wheel problem. Let Johno have a look

Have you thought about putting your guages where the radio goes & vice versa Ollie ??? I'm just going off memory here

My observation from the photo you have provided is....your car is too low, and with the 19' wheels you've got, it wont make much difference what size tyre you use... they will rub... it even looks like the mag has been touching the guard as well. Unfortunately, without spending alot of money, you wont fix it just with tyres But then again, I'm no tyre expert and Ive been wrong before

Thats a great example and I love the seats. I forgot to ask you Ollie last Friday....who did them for you ?? Mine need doing, so does my headlining

Not sure second hand...try the for sale and ask for offers

As far as I know Ernst @ Bavarian Motors on the North Shore has done a few for the Targa Guys. Give him a try I heard he's very reasonable. He's actually a very good friend & used to work for me The parts are just so friggen dear. Cheaper to go second hand. Depends what your after & what you've got

Thanks very much for the support Guys Its very much appreciated Its nice to be luved Cheers' Glenn

Cheers.... but I've got mine now ty

You will need a driveshaft specialist to help you with this, however there might be another solution that someone may be able to shed some light on. As far as I know you will have to get the E34 front coupling fitted to your E28 driveshaft and rebalanced

So you got an E34 gearbox and your car is an E28 ?? If so you will need to get the driveshaft front coupling fitted to your old E28 driveshaft . Measurements will have to be exact, or have I got this all wrong ??? Your explanation is a bit hard to follow

Have a good one mate From Glenn and the "team" @ Botany Motor Worx

Thanks Yuen...I'll ring them today Was X Germany from TMMBMW ($900)

No one out West that I could recommend...I dont know anyone out there personally. The closest people that I could recommend would be the BMWorkshop in Grey Lynn Or come for a drive to my place, I certainly can recommend me Cheers Glenn

I'll check today for you Edit: It fits: E28 535 I & M5 E24 635 & M635CSI

You can only reset adaptions with the right kind of scanner. Battery reset wont do it

EDIT: BUMP!!
