Any experience with this.The 120d needs to get to Auckland.(from welly)I might drive it up and fly back if I can get a cheap airfare.How much will a transport charge

Sorry I too literal eh....

not cool

the rules exist to try to ensure thst cars are safe.cars with no suspension travel are not safe esp on the open road.lowered cars are also easy to spot,like speeders.if you want to run a lowered car do it properly,and get the proper paperwork to prove it

If you have a wof that must be a good place to start.get a certificate

thats absolute max,rfa hasnt gone off again,cant be any more precise,just going of service station gauges,not happy.i wont buy another car with run flats if I can avoid it

My tyre man wont fix the run flat.Its a screw right in the middle of the tread.Its a slow leak,5 psi a day max.The BMW dealer said they would fix it.Too late for me,i have ordered a new tyre,they are gonna give me a one off price

Yes but power and straight line speed is only part of it isnt it?

Would be a heavy beast

Prototype made,exists,seen by few

Under offer

Maybe an x5?

Its a flash not a separate entity afaik

Ok I been offered 10k as a trade,i will take anything above that

Brake fluid should be replaced every 2 year's

Yes I lost about 2 or 3 psi this afternoon no alarm

Must be slowish,pumped up at lunch time reset indicator,went to lunch came back not gone off again yet.I cant see it can be too accurate,must be quite a varistion in wheel speed driving around town and suburbs

Bugger.bloody run flat indicator came on this morning on the motorway, kept going was pretty flat when I got to work!

My 120 has no jack or wheelbrace. Run flsts are also ecpensive.my first two were 400 each.For a 205 55 16.i couldn't get comtinentals or bridgestones didny want hankooks.got Pirelli nicer tyre,better riding than the other two.Had to get them was xmas,and was going awayThe next two matching Pirelli were about 300 each exactly same tyre from the same shop!

Those flats were normal tyres.i ruined the tyre on the Takapau plains. I dont know about fixing run flats I am not recommending them just responding to the OP They bloody hard riding too

Agreed,i would rather have a full size spare too.however I have had three punctures since about 1990. One was in the middle of the night on the takapau plains,one was in napier playing bridal cars,and one was on the way home from work.in all cases a run flat would have got me to a tyre place. One of those flats was because the tyre was virtually worn through on the inside edge

Run.flats are almost indescructible.if You know they are going down you have the.opportunity to slow down,and drive where you are going.I think you can drive about 80 ks on a flat run flat at a reduced speed

If you have no luck let me know.i live close to and drive past a bmw dealer every day,prolly 6 days a week,i am sure we could work something out,or others can recommend other ways,ie oem filters through other sources.i may be old fashioned,but I like to support the hand that indirectly feeds us

I go to the dealer to buy oil and filter.take some containers for the quantity you need

my nz new 2005 120d is run flat only.You wont be stranded, that s the idea.You know when they are going down cos of the pressure monitoring system
