Want a full set of lowering springs to suit 540i I'm in Hamilton Let me know what you can offer me cheers

Hi I don't have any issue but I want to know how do you tell if your car has a factory Immobiliser or if you have a transponder key? Sounds like a dumb question I know Any info would be great Cheers

Well here are my results so far I tried 91 put $40 in was ok idled a little rough when cold economy was ok too, but not fantastic. Tried the gull ethanol E85 felt good if giving it a bit, but very rough idle when cold and took ages to smooth out poor economy Put $60 Mobil 95 nice smooth idle nice and responsive and good economy bar far the best so far. Am going to try BP 98 and Gull force 10(98) and see how they go I get about 9.5 km/ltr open road on the 95 around 7km/ltr round town

We'll I'm happy, I did this today Subaru upper cylinder cleaner $21.50 from subaru. easy to do let it soak and then started it smoked for a little bit but nothing like the videos on you tube. I guess that means there wasn't too much carbon in there which is good. I followed the instructions to a tea so I'm sure I did it right. Felt good afterwards nice and smooth idle as well as a sharp responsive pickup I'm going to try it again soon.

Oh ok cool, that sounds like the stuff. How much was it?

Had a look at envirotab looks good, quite expensive I thought though? Wonder if it pays off in fuel mileage for the 540. I may give it a go next pay day lol

Hi I'm interested if anyone has used any products on there BMW or could make any recommendations about internal cleaning of the engine without pulling it apart I have seen videos on YouTube of Seafoam and the likes. Not sure if it would be a good idea with a 540i though? What do you think? is there anything recommended for these engines? Or is it if it aint broke don't fix it. Cheers

Great to hear I should note what I put up is 7km/ltr which is about 14.2 ltr/100km (mixed driving) I've never heard of the Envirotab I take it increase in octane? what is it like without it? cheers

Hi I'm interested in what has been used and the results. I recently brought a 1997 540i M62 I have put 95 Octane in it but have been told that these can run on 91 well? as they were designed from factory to go to Japan and USA where they run a lower octane 87 and 89. Is this true? What would happen if you run it on 91 octane? Also what is your fuel consumption like? km/l I get about 7km/l round town and a little bit of open road driving Cheers

Thanks for the comments. Not long to go now, add it to your watch list Cheers Phil
