Once the tyre is flat, generally you can travel up to 80km at a speed of 80kph before the sidewall of tyre breaks down and requires replacement. Which in most cases is enough to get the next town or garage but not always M3's dont come on runflat tyres unless someone has retrofitted them. And if it is a new one still under warranty then BMW roadside assist will come pick it up with no charge

Happens more than you think Yes you can, as long as it's not in the sidewall or in the edge. Same as a normal tyre.

This guy has some rims

Less weight, protects against blowouts, and not getting run over on the side of the road while you change a tyre, yeah that screams money hunger. 90% of all runflat tyres are available from dealers or overnight from Auckland and are cheaper than from Bridgestone or where ever you get tyres from. Hate on runflats for their ride/noise is justified but everything else is has no basis

This says otherwise 2. All the tyres on a vehicle class MA, MB, MD1 or NA that was first registered or re-registered in New Zealand from 1 October 2002, other than vehicles that are incapable of exceeding 30km/h or are 30 years old or more, are not of the same carcass type (ie mixed steel ply, fabric radial ply, bias/cross ply, run-flat).

absolutely, instead of rewriting the whole section they just keep adding parts to it which make it more and more confusing as it tends to contradict itself throughout

I must have miss read your post sorry. Need all 4 the same have asked a number of WOF inspectors and all confirmed this

It is ok to do so but you must have all 4 tyres the same. IE all runflats or all normal tyres. Can't mix and match

Asking 79,990

If the buttons do nothing and there's no option in the idrive then you don't have Bluetooth.

No sorry it just part of the multifunction steering wheel

yeah thats right

You need to have 4 of all the same. If you read it thoroughly it contracts itself slightly but has a line which states all 4 must be the same

Afaik, no. But then again my car isn't running at the moment so will find out when it does

Scored a right side headlight wipers and motor. Had to fit it so I don't lose any of it. Now to find a left side

It's not the diameter it's the thickness which should be stamped on the rotors. At least with genuine ones they are

Depends where you go. A mechanic would more than likely wheels off and measure properly as long as the discs had the min thickness stamped on them, but a testing station wouldnt. Same goes for window tints, if there are no markings then they can be failed and up to you to prove that they are ok

If a vehicle comes with bump stops then it needs bump stops for the WOF. They can also fail you on brake rotors if they suspect they are undersized, it is then up to you to prove otherwise

Yea I'd say thats it. Full dealer history etc very nice car, I'm looking at it at the moment

https://www.trademe.co.nz/1859924942 Here you go, manual, had oil leaks and water pump done and under 15k. It's a deal, it's a steal, it's the sale of the f**king century

Emblem comes with the airbagand can't buy new individually so best bet to find one 2nd hand or aftermarket

135 manuals are where the potential gains are. Few of them popping up for sale under 20k if the manual thing is a stopping block. Having driven a modded 335 I'm more than happy with the auto trans as you need both hands on the wheel. However most people want to go drifting and manuals tend to be better than full autos

Chains are more of rattle than a click per say. Remove the oil filler cap you maybe able to see broken chain guides but depends on where and how bad they are broken

Avoid the e46 318i, timing chain and valve stem seal issues. Should be able to get a manual e36 328 for that sort of price albeit a converted one
