chassis code JR47521 2001 318Ci Auto(GM) M43 cheers

havent a ton of experience with E46, but just having a look over a mates car and found something possibly? On my E30, if you tighten up the bolt on the top of the shock, you can get it tight and the top mount does not move. Same as my Volvo. However on the E46 i just looked at, the mount twists over a certain torque, and springs back to its original poistion. The tophats look new, but this just sounds a bit wierd? The top half of the shock twists with it, the bottom stays fixed in place. Does this on both sides. Doesnt sound right to me? would have thought the thing should be solid save for the minute flex given its rubber? Cheers

Yeah i didnt remember punching in a code, though it was probably 2 years i go i got the unit. Any idea where i would get one of those from?

Reinstalling the software and its asking for the activation code, anyone have one written down? Its a mass produced chinese knockoff off trademe i brought a few years ago, so if you have the same machine it will be the same code, will just be a pirate CD anyway. Cheers

happy birthday!

Cheers, ill edit that. It came in with no sim in it to know. No sorry, but i will have some though. give me a PM mate

happy birthday mate

Agree 100%

cheers Glenn!

just realised this should have been in the For Sale section! in any case... BUMP

replaced front brake rotors did a skid to check if they would hold the car had a bourbon

For the record you are correct from my observations, though the previous owner could have had them retro-fitted onto the 520i at the same time he did a full overhaul on the front suspension just before i brought it. as it turns out, its looking like the wheel bearing is the culprit, the disk doesnt appear to roll smooth. That said, the wheel wasnt on at this stage to push dish all the way parallel, though i tried with my hands. Will see if my wobble under brakes goes now i have fitted "new" disks. there was no wobble when they were on the 520i.

my man. PM'd

Width adjustable or E30 only? give you a doz or whatever if adjustable

i dont know the years/dates, but its certainly been a long time. that said was never made out to be very serious. mind you Apple was his love child, he founded it all those years ago. I guess i wouldnt want to make a hype about it either

needs windscreen on more of an angle! omgomogmomog so jelous though

so ive got the usual shuddering etc in the front coming through the steering wheel under braking in the shitty car, which is a 525i Touring. When i upgraded the schnitz to 540i brakes, there was actually nothing wrong mechanically with the stock 520i brakes, and i still have the disks. In fact, they are just under a year and only about 4000kms old So question: can i fit rotors from the 520i Touring onto a 525i Touring of the same year? would assume it is the same as if both cars were sedans. cheers

Beats a hybrid for daily driving

wish i had my E30 still sometimes! i love the borbet rims! wouldnt mind a 5 stud set for my 5 one day! glws

Never seen one before! What does the tail look like?

Im an Apple fanboy, but i dont own an iPod or iPhone, and regret buying an iPad though it does make my job a lot easier. Both way overpriced for what they are.

i like the snowplow kit more than the tech 2! infact i hate the tech2 kit if it doesnt have the whole lot including spoiler ha

same as the vast majority of BMWs and Holdens in general yep

christ! thats a crazy price! i would be expecting parts supplied by the fitter for that price! edit: could you take a day or two off work and do it yourself? might still work out cheaper than lost wage?

Right, self control calls for no more mucking around waiting for the right price, this shits got go, as im paying rent to store it. everything at $1 reserve, except for the iMac and the personalised plate! http://www.trademe.co.nz/Members/Listings....?member=3584373 Should be something for everyone. Happy bidding!
