  1. Thats actually been de-pimped! The sailwin sportway cheapest sh*t tyres on planet earth, with "supercar spec" sidewalls is just class.
  2. Great format and content, reminds me of garage 4AGE, need more of this.
  3. Thats been retrofitted or maybe was right on the switch over or something weird? If they got optioned with that dial its the vacuum/economy gauge and not oil temp.
  4. Only LCIs got oil temp, I retrofitted it by switching around eproms with a soldering iron and coding f**kery into my PreLCI. I think you could code the "economy" gauge in some PreLCI manuals to do oil temp, but obviously the scale wont be right. Its worth doing as even most OBD2 tools cant figure out the PID for BMW oil temp.
  5. Surprising how little customisation was available for the 6 and 7s, thought would be able to spec them all kinds of stupid, even the colours are all beige as. Seems like 1s & 3s got the most options.
  6. Mine definitely primes the pump in certain circumstances, like doors etc, always has done. The Skoda is worse, if you open the bonnet can hear relays clicking and lots of things whirring... putting itself into emissions check mode I suspect
  7. And standard brakes, painted red.
  8. All kinds of crazyness https://archive.org/details/bmw-accessories-configurator-v-12
  9. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/5274524521 - slick hartge wheels, looks like panel damage to lh gaurd/bumper?
  10. If anyones after a brown LCI interior, kinda cool. https://www.turners.co.nz/Damaged-Vehicles/Damaged-Cars-for-Sale/bmw/130i/26661542
  11. Could be anything from a wrecked guibo to vanos solenoids. Avoid magic potions, they dont work in gearboxes or engines.
  12. The aeros quite subtle! https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/130i/listing/5254891721
  13. 9 weeks later, brace off... went for a drive. Now a few months of physio
  14. Did you get what you wanted for it? Ill grab the chain tensioner if its still available, have nearly everything else NIB anyway 😪

    Breaking news, you may not be aware, but, N52s leak oil.
  16. Number of 130s for sale on tardme just doubled.
  17. Why dont you have 4 130s? I cant even get in the seat of my one 130 at the moment, fecking neck brace...

    2006 130i

    Metal seals on the ledges?
  19. And you'll be able to look at the actual outputs of the MAF and see if they are crazy or bugging out etc.
  20. Protools does coding.
  21. My 2c - Vacuum/intake leak and FRM needs a digital kick. Get a proper scantool, bimmergeeks protools is a very good bet, and itll help you figure out both. Way to early for the parts cannon approach.
  22. Ive pulled 130 box on jackstands, its not exactly fantastic but is doable.
