I have this issue too. I think its something to do with the seal on the recirc flap getting old. Its so annoying and one of my pet hates in any car. He'll even my e30 works better than the 5 series. Im yet to do something about it sorry so can't help. The flap is controlled by the climate control module over MBUS and it has its own stepped motor.

I love how they're called luxury in this country. These days they're the standard. And most other cars are shitty made and feel cheap.

Just do what I did and make one out of billet. Here is what I did. http://www.bminfo.co.nz/?page_id=67 Make sure you have the whole lot balanced together afterwards.

The info on the occupancy sensors and airbag is not quite right above. If you dont have any one in the passenger seat and have a broken occupancy sensor. The air bag WILL go off. The sensor is there to tell the car that there is no one in the seat so dont fire the airbag in a crash. It help cut the repair bill down. When you think about it, why would the airbag system rely on a occupancy sensor that has the potential to wear out and is a big failure point? All doing the bypass does is make it so both airbags will fire in an acciedent. The information on dont cut corners is right however, it really should be replaced else you could void your insurance.

You talking about his or mine? Mine is already certed for the stock break line mods. These pictures don't show the final work. Its 1000 times more tidy.
-
Sweet all sorted! I must say TBH it was a pain in the ass re-routing the brake lines for it. Nothing to bad however it did take a mate of mine a few days to get it perfect including removing the horrible pre face lift bias distro valve and buying all the tools to do so etc.

On an S50 I needed to move mine over 40mm towards the side of the car .. Im not sure of yours I dont think you have the problem with the plenium as I did. Your UK MK2 1.3 golf booster will most likely be enough. This is what I did. Used two stainless plates infront and behind the firewall for the booster and MC setup.

Nice man! .. feels great when you get the engine finally rested and in place aye! Let me know if you need the firewall relocation plates for the booster.

You know 20 years a go I use to be one of those cap backwards fellas .. (it was all about basketball back then not dubstep) I remember reading those articles you wrote a few years later when I got into cars and dreaming of owning something half way decent than my 1980's poo brown mazda that I chopped the springs on. I was mates with Randle Edgell's daughter .. and I remember being around the dinner table one time talking to Randle when I was 17 asking him what mods I should do to my poo brown mazda to make it go faster. You could imagine what was going through his head haha. The guy had just finished prepping half of the WRC cars for the NZ round and heres me asking how to make a 1.5 4cylinder sewing machine engine to go faster. I guess we were all there at one point.
