Why do new BMW's have tachometers that spin backwards ?
Gaz replied to oldtimer's topic in General Discussion
Based on that, are they still backwards? That's Idrive6 Jon, the G series vehicles have Idrive7 and have what Oldtimer has posted above -

If it's round then there is no start or end point so which way is forwards ? -

Gaz replied to oldtimer's topic in General Discussion
It's to do with stop/start function. Engine turns it off to save fuel/meet emissions and sits at ready so you know that once you release the brake the engine starts automatically -

Does it really matter? I barely use it unless the engine is running funny -
Post the rest of the car Jon, saw it yesterday and I think it looks amazing!

Nice, where did you get the z3 shifter from?

LCI F20 interior is miles better than e90 interior. E90 interior just feels cheap and dated already

There's a company called Pack and Send, their name says it all really, and can sort it out if you give them dimensions and an address. Good luck and let me know how you go, I've got some super rare bbs rs which I'm refinishing at the moment that will likely end up going overseas

The 4 I've seen are all the same as yours. One had a purple connector on it which was the only difference which was from a late e36.

Yeah he was very passionate about cleaning his cars. One of the last meets was a cold wet day but he spent 6 hours the day before cleaning his car immaculately. I posted this last night but heard mixed stories about his status so I'll repost here; We sadly lost touch after his focus switch from cars to family and futsal. One of last times I caught up with him was when i purchased the Hartge wheels off him, he sold them to me for what is considered a steal compared to what they are worth as he knew they were going to a good home and he would get to see them used. He was genuinely a nice guy and always happy to help. He will be missed

If you have no intention of getting said part fitted yet still ask for a quote is that not wasting time? -
Its check and replace if required, engine has to be cool enough so check with them how long they need the car. 90% are ok and the ones I have replaced, stock has been available ex-Auckland but will be different for each model

He doesn't know what the chapter to read if he doesn't ask the dealer which book to read from. It goes both ways, they can also tell if you are going to waste their time as you clearly state you do for fun -

Sales people have it easy as people will buy a car based on a number of things, none of which are how much the sales person knows. Most people these days know more than the sales person. Service and in particular warranty advisors have to deal with the black and white rulebook that the Germans have created (which often changes so bear that in mind when asking for peoples experiences) so are more likey to get an accurate answer from one of them. What is it you are wanting to do exactly?
