I got an 18 button one from Pick-A-Part for $11 I think. If one is close it may pay to check that out? Agreed, people expect stupid money and don't want to provide a warranty. Crazy.

No idea on price sorry but you'll almost certainly get more for it in Europe or the States than here. Edit: got any pictures?

INPA & DIS both work on Win 10 x86/x64. The ADS interface (if you need it) also works on Win 10 but only 32bit (x86).

If so he was doing it wrong. That's effectively exactly what the "special" tool does. Lots of YouTube videos to show someone how it's done.

And if the belts don't hold the pump use a long screwdriver to brace the pump nuts and try again. Once you've done it once it becomes obvious and is easily repeatable. Lots of YouTube videos also for guidance.

Yep, for me they are and I've got a slight build. I've spent a fair bit of time in one now too so it's not just my immediate reaction. Go kart seats are more comfortable. Seat cushions aren't thick enough and upper lateral support is both too firm and not wide enough. I weight 75kg. There's no way some people much bigger than me would even fit into the seats. They're lovely seats don't get me wrong but after a continuous 250k drive I'm ready to trash them for sure! Great track seats, rubbish for our roads IMO.

Devastating change but I can understand the reasons, the CSL seats are brutally uncomfortable.

If you miss it then you're not holding it right.It's an utterly redundant accessory.

I think that unless you put a bypass in (which costs a lot less than that tool - hope you didn't pay for it) then the light will certainly come back.

3.0/3.2 shouldn't make a difference, same s/c unit for both. RHD/LHD shouldn't make a difference either, front of the engines are the same. However you don't want a s/c for a US M3. RMS are probably the best, have you checked out their Stage 2 setup? http://www.racemarque.com/product/stage-2-bmw-e36-euro-m3-supercharger-kit/

Ignore US figures, they're overinflated and basically rubbish. And since I can't mentally translate the HP figures here into reliable Kw numbers then I have to discard them all. But I don't believe a 1M has 'hundreds' more Kw OR HP than an e46 M3 in stock configuration.

^ 1M != M135i Graham. Nevertheless, I doubt those numbers also.

What do you think it's worth (I have no idea)?

Hi Jagan, is there a reason you don't want a diesel? I think the suggestions above are to get a six cylinder petrol or a <any cylinder> diesel. My knowledge of newer BMW's is limited so I can't even tell you which ones are 4 v's 6 cylinder sorry.

Seeing those pics reminds me that you'll want 6 x 51-71-2-268-565 soon, may pay to order them. http://www.schmiedmann.com/51-71-2-268-565/product-type/new/search-by-productnumber.aspx

I actually think it should be illegal to sell a car without a cert if the car requires one. Unless it's de-registered and therefore illegal to use on the road. Anyway, the only two things I have to say about this car: 1. it looks terrible on 16's 2. does an e46 rear coupe seat fit straight into an e36, side bolsters and all?

Damn I'm old.

If you search for 'e36 fender flare guards' you'll find them. Apparently it's a thing now. And TBH I used to hate sh*t like this but nowadays I'm starting to appreciate the time, effort and ingenuity, even if not the aesthetic. So, I initially thought "yuck" but now I think "go for it" and am looking forward to seeing what you can engineer.

Gotta dump the badges.

Welcome. What body kit is that on the 5er do you know?

Don't stress dude, no harm, no foul.

No. And there's no such think as OBD "one" anyway, it's all proprietary before "OBDII". Whatever you have, and you do need to post a picture, it's probably suitable for 1997+ vehicles, '99+ at the worst.

Pronounced Dy-nin, didn't know that.

I don't disagree with Glenn, you can't rely on the advice you've been given unless you've been given more advice than you're sharing with us. Did the person that scanned the codes actually reset the airbag light (so it was off) and then it appeared again? Did you get a copy of the airbag codes the car was throwing? Don't spend any money yet is my advice - I'm no e90 expert but on earlier models, and according to realoem, the clock spring is part of the steering wheel assembly and not available separately (unless from a wrecker). http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/partgrp?id=VA72-EUR-07-2005-E90-BMW-320i&mg=32

So apparently it's for both the washer nozzles and the heated wing mirrors. I'd need to remove the hood liner to see how the washer nozzles are wired up. Correct mounting location in the e36 (M3) is the brake duct on the RHS, in e36's with non-motorsport bumpers apparently it's mounted up by the washer reservoir. I had some idle time at work this morning to research. Mine had fallen out and was just hanging by the wires. Cheers guys.
