  1. Good stuff, I may need to check mine when I get back and see if I have any broken wires. It has had a repair at some stage as the wries have a normal electrical tape over them rather than the usual cloth tape ...i have crap range for the remote locking so it may have a bad wire or 10
  2. So where did you start the wires from and finish?
  3. Yeah spoke to dad the other night he said the same...you cruising makarska in a zastava? more hard core than a yugo
  4. Keep the sun out Boris, we are heading over next week for a couple of months
  5. Thats Zac, has a collection of things,a ferrari up at west lynn panel and paint having a resto, e24 m6 race car, and even a 6.3 300sel merc, and of course the defender... and only one car has airbags, and their not for safety..oh and the TVR is the only car that fits in his garage, the rest live in coatsville. Selling the house in summer so he can keep more cars at home...wise man
  6. Rather spend $92 than $300 on a butcher doin it!
  7. common is right, the glass lid switch by the wiper just started playing up on ours, so out goes the fuse for the time being. going to get a new one in europe when im there in a couple of weeks, the car isnt going to be used for a couple of months while we are gone but PITA, also unter the spoiler houses a black box which can fill with water and cause all sorts of trouble

    BMW Airbag Recall

    Good to know it easy to do, mine will get replaced then all of them will be stripped out of the car ready for the cage!. Wonder if they are worth anything
  9. Actually they are a common issue on that motor which is the N62 which has valvetronic. My X5 nz new full history from team bmw still had the problem
  10. Yeah and also if your sitting at idle at lights it will be smokey
  11. Valve stem seals are common on that motor, had all of them done in the X5 (32 i think) NZ new with full history McMillans done it under warrantee for free, but BM Workshop can do it for around 2k with out removing the heads....because its common issue
  12. Im sure one or two of my cars have plugs that are redundant, same thing....go to nothing
  13. yeah i think it had done a bit over 15k
  14. Nice, I can't use mine in the touring because it's got thermal glazing! Such a pain
  15. I just threw up....lucky I'm I'm hospital so the nurse can clean it up
  16. Good turn out...thanks for coming along. Probably going to do it twice a year dont forget the water wall
  17. Its ponsonby who needs mufflers!, be proud its not a prius
  18. you need to reverse into your parking at home so you cant see the tips, they look sooo small

    1991 E31 850i

    A mate of mine had one years ago, black on black from Hamilton......was originally white
  20. That a bit in a day, mine was over about 2 or 3 weeks
  21. I have the BMW Mobility kit, no more run flats, in fact i have a puncture that cant be fixed due to flex in the side wall and the idrive will alert me when the pressure drops by around 5psi/kpa or something like that, if all else fails i have the AA. Not a big deal
  22. Interesting site, looks like a good option for when the E46 gets stripped and a nice wheel covering is needed, im sure stus trim and sound do restos on steering wheels
