  1. The one from the states will be wrong...L/H drive vehicles have shorter cables
  2. The MBI Company will also require copies of service invoices if a claim is made and these must be GST invoices with labour, parts and and sundries itemized . Doing anything dodgy to make a claim can also result in a fraud prosecution
  3. What a friggen money pit. 9 years old and 134,000km. It's over it's recycling date by 4 years and 34,000km
  4. Most late model Euro cars don't have dipsticks these days...apart from the one behind the wheel. They are now going a little further and no more sump plugs. There is a plug, but if you remove it you need to replace the sump. And this is happening now on some Euro's. Not had it on a BMW yet, but it will no doubt come. It's a bit like the use once bolts that now prevail within the industry. At this stage I've only seen it on the VW Audi range with plastic sumps.
  5. They keep buying a badge they had a love affair with many years ago. This will fade with time and their empty pockets will cause them to take the walk
  6. Because BMW don't continue to sell mechanical excellence any more. It's all about toys and bling. Same as all the other Euro Manufacturers. Reliability and reasonable maintenance costs have flown out the widow with the designers and the number crunchers
  7. I would say you wasted $24.99 on that because it can be tested with your finger as far as a non start issue, but not as a prolonged throttle situation. You may need it later for future problems though. Most technicians are capable of checking a non start pressure related issue on these older vehicles by inspection and feel... carry on though.. I'll keep watching
  8. Stop fiddling and guessing and be careful with the advice given on here. Get it scanned and checked by a professional BMW specialist

  10. What did you do with all that dope hidden in the muffler ??

    Luv the car without the wing Christian. Saw it, and heard it out at Villa Maria a couple of weeks ago
  12. Captain Money.... go to a BMW specialist before this turns into a money pit nightmare with all the misinformation and suggestions you may be getting for your E90. You have already been hit in the pocket with an idiot repairer
  13. What is a "clog" and how do you check a PCV valve ? What is a PCV valve ?
  14. You could always trade a couple of pallets of his other listing http://www.trademe.co.nz/health-beauty/per...n-494726432.htm
