bump Are OEM pads the best option? Or is it worth looking at 'upgraded' after market ones?

low is a lifestyle bro

Would love Ray to open a more 'central' shop!

Where are these located please?

The m3 is the one for me. But curious how much quicker / better is the black one Vs the silver one?

Wasn't his price OKish though? Keep trollin'

Thanks Glenn. [All you BMW guys live on the wrong side of town for me ]

Update: So I have had a scan and cam shaft sensor has come up. While I will get this attended to, do you think it is the cause of the stalling issue?

New gaiters and adjustable cup holder =)

Soooo.... who's cutting a hole in their bonnet this weekend?

It is converted to manual.

Vanos seals have been done. It runs 100% mint apart from this Runs fine when started. Drive to end of drive, clutch in = fine. Drive a little bit, and if you clutch in and coast, revs will drop to idle and die. While in gear and driving its fine. Some times it 'struggles' at 100rpm and survives. If if survives the first struggle its fine from there. (It feels like its either slightly too cold or slightly too warm to die - there is a narrow 'cold' zone only when it does this). If you restart straight away its like a pained 'eeeeeee', wait 5 seconds and its the normal 'eee eee eee eee'.No popping or miss fires or anything. Should be 'oem' grade oil Yip... This is the problem. You can only reproduce every 24 hours and it will do it once maybe twice if you are lucky.

Actually if you try and start straight away it sounds like it is struggling but does start. Wait 5 seconds and it turns over normally Are you on to something here

Yeah nothing in the scan apparently. What do you suggest? Just bring it in to check all that stuff?

Yeah its only from 'stone cold' it happens, (but will start and idle fine, only stall after 30 seconds of driving). Had multiple oil changes since having the issue, (by garages we all know on here). Been living with this for a while as it is a minor annoyance, but if I was looking to sell I would want it sorted. Idle is rock solid perfect outside this narrow window.

Yo, I have had 2 respected garages unable to fix my issue, and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas? - Car stalls when cold, but only when really cold, (like over night) - Doesn't stall right away - drive up my drive and stop and its OK. But then at the end of the street the revs will drop and it will stall. - After maybe 2 minutes (and still in the blue cold zone) it will be OK. Its a really narrow zone that this happens in. Happens like clock work though. - No stalls when cold started when leaving work in the evening. (If I didn't have to stop for 500m when leaving my house, I would never even know its an issue) Tried new air flow meter. Been suggest its because of a pod filter (really? no one else seems to have this issue) I understand its hard for a garage as you can only repeat the issue once a day in that narrow window. Any suggestions? Cheers

whats the link to that gear knob again please? The colour is so bright it looks shopped! Edit: TY for link

Yes

Are you committed to maintenance? I hope so, cause it doesn't stop and get used to 'yeah just have to order that from Italy'.

Yeah will probably get some freshies. About a year old and they are grey brown. I have a sunroof though? Pretty sure I got from the same store. Definitely worth it regardless.

Beware those gaiters fade like crazy.

We need pics. Also some pics of the car.

Assuming condition is good - it's worth more than $4k. I'd say $6k+

I've seen and heard this car quite a bit. Its loud as fck and he 'uses' it.

Cabs face lifted later on.
