Antallica

Waiting for battery to charge so I can pop it back in and see what's what. Hopefully know more in a day or so.

Still looking for my charger so not sure about charged battery. Did move last week when we fired it up with a jump start.

Seeing if there's any interest in this old girl. Was our old tow rig but I've since bought a ute. Full service history, needs an oil change and a new alternator or battery. Started going into limp mode and aircon pump stopped working right before we discovered the alternator/battery issue, which might explain it. Aircon was fully re-gassed this year. Front lip is back on (not very well). Paint is peeling off in places, see pics. Interior is pretty good, screen has the usual spots. Located in Waipu, will need to be trailered I guess.

Got the highest one without the smart mechanic, so much to play around with

Managed to find the specs on the aftermarket wheels I got. Same size as the hub. Anyway I'll take them off tomorrow and check it all over.

I got one of those Carly scanners and it's great.

Got a steering wheel vibration/shake that comes and goes at speeds over 60km/h, can feel it through the car at highway speeds. Had an alignment/balance a few months ago. Just had the yuck run flats taken off and new tyres put on, it's almost worse now. No mention of rim issues so I presume they're fine. Doesn't look like any weights have come off either. Thinking back to when I got my current wheels. I remember we had to cut the hub rings off on the fronts due to them not going on flush, the rear was fine with them left on. I'll jack it up and check for bearing/brake issues tomorrow. Just wondering if the lack of rings might be a factor? Will take it to another tyre shop this week and re-check balance, in case my usual place did a crap balance job last time.

Quite keen on this low kms 530i, only 55k on it. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/530i/listing/4173323570

Well that was interesting, 3x 130i's at the supermarket in my backwater town.

Could be, what's your budget?

Speaking of scan tools, I ran my Carly scanner through mine and it came back with oil pressure switch (002F7B). Anyone know of a good place to get one of those?

Good times. Wiper motor next.

Crap day but went to the beach anyway

Yours and mine both!

How can you find out how many there are? *edit* answered my own question - https://www.carjam.co.nz/nz-fleet/?order_by=count_desc&year=&make=BMW&model=130i
