Subaru upper engine cleaner, all the dealers will have it, it makes some impressive smoke

That one looks tits, nice wheels (and fitment), good pick.

Not the blue one?

Welcome to the 130 fanboi club My wife used to have a new Dmax, 130 with the seats down has bigger load area...

pinion seal is leaking, with the 130 as soon as I changed the diff fluid both outputs started leaking Outputs are easy DIY, but the pinion seal looks like a bit of bitch.

Been done to death a bit, but can someone recommend me an Auckland workshop to do the diff pinion (and output) seals on an E91 330i. Botany Motor Worx are gone, and BM Workshop mad a mare of it the last time it was in there, so need someone competent and with the right gear to set the preload. Other option is I pull the diff and get it sent to Kayne to fix, problem with that is the 330 is the family truckster and its logistically painful to pull off the road for a few days.

Welcome, N52s are great engines. That BMW Doctor guy on youtube who proclaims to be an N52 expert is a hack and just dribbles nonsense, I wouldnt put any faith in anything he says

Ive got mine plenty hot, had smoke coming off em 2 pack clear over the decal, over high temp enamel, all is well.

Not BMW, but damn... I want one.

Your car has a clone, with a decent sounding exhaust note as well

Were you driving through Maramarua this afternoon?

Nice, way faster gear changes I dont think any of the "performance" bits were factory options, all dealer stuff. The only real spec other than base/sport and Msport was a Europe only LE, which is E81 130 with bmw performance wheels, cool lemon yellow leather, carbon black paint and silver line trim.

I had a pdf copy of pre lci 130 somewhere, most of the functionality with the coupe/2 door hatch is identical though. Have the paper copy for my car if its on any use.

Waffle video, but it kind of sums up whats happened to M. Goes from race cars, to a guy doing M sound design for electric status symbols ?

Nah, just a specialist chinese retailer

$500us order from china delivered today, no gst. System works good ?

Mine (N52B30) throws O2 sensor errors when I put sh*t gas in it, even 96 (have had to twice, gas light on, middle of nowhere... still feel bad about it :( ), once it meets its internal emission cycle stuff, and sitting at 100 in 6th "lean burning" it'll throw the code for various O2 sensors. May have something to do with always running it on 98, and reseting the adaptations whilst on 98.

I can bring it on the 8th if that suits (have no pm)

Fixed for MY2023

http://www.acromann.com/ however the process was hilarious, I logged in and ordered, then got a confirmation email and all the personal details of some poor guy in Italy, and the details of his Ducati sticker order. So I logged out, and logged back in again and got the personal account of a guy in Germany ordering Porsche windscreen banners. Few emails back and forth with the acromann guy and the right thing did turn up, took a few weeks though (from HK) If you can find somewhere else to get them, Id try that first.

Some truth bombs dropped. Shitty compact SUVs, screens for africa.

83k You would have to be a real back to the future fanboi to drop that on one.

Bump... no one wants near new OEM rotors for free?
