At least they picked a nice day to steal a convertible.
-
Probably Poland is a good place to start, they LPG everything. Anyway, you'll be looking at $5k+ for the conversion and the complex kind of the LPG system need a annual servicing. But since you drive a fair bit of milage per year, you can probably gain that cost back in couple of years.

Friend has one on a Mazda MPS, seems ok. Hasn't blown anything up yet. Mind you, to use aggressive map, you might want to use 98 fuel (which my friend does).

Never mind getting it out, HOW did it get in?

Does a Hofmann machines means those that got a disc for breaking the tyre bead as oppose to the normal machines where it got a L shape metal and the operator slip a pry bar into the tyre? I've seen that kind of machine at Beaurepaire Grey Lynn (next to Lamborghini show room and Pit Stop).

I think what he meant was that 30/10 advertised is between Chrous's network and your ISP, where the Speedtest is between ISP and you. Hence the lost of some speed due to overhead, server delay/latency, etc...

There are so many people drives late model Merc, Audi, even I've seen Lambo put 91 in it. I am sure those can all make full use the 95/96 even 98 fuel. Some people...

Telecom fibre comes with voice on copper included, their fibre cost the same as VDSL, so I guess as might as well go fibre. Only thing is it takes 2 days to install. So I'll have to take time off work, which is a pain in the backside if you ask me. I bought the Igloo box only because they are on special, same price as a normal Freeview box and with the extra channels as option if I want it. Movie price ain't that bad, same as AppleTV or a video shop for new movies.

Reading all this caused me having second thoughts on getting fibre. Just moved into this area where I can get fibre, it sounds really cool thing to have. Wife and I are going to ditch SkyTV and use that monthly money towards Igloo box, downloads and streaming services (AppleTV & the likes). I thought the extra speed and monthly cap will be a good thing for doing these things. As for the caps, I asked Telecom about it and they say they can't do caps on fibre just yet. So, effectively $95 for unlimited data until (I guess) someone abuses it bad enough or they figure out how to do it.

Mine has a dipstick and no computer sensor. NZ New 320d But it's really weird that the dipstick doesn't go in straight down like most cars I came across and it's on a slanted angle.

Stink! At least you know your car is in good hands.

Anyone else waiting on parts from BMWNZ/Germany?

I wonder what that part is and for what car. -

Seems everyone in supply chain are doing something that causes delay. EMD was moving warehouse few weeks ago, I have to wait 2 weeks for a VW mirror glass with no way to tell a ETA. I ordered a BMW rubber mat few days ago, none in the country and again no ETA -
Meh~ Unless they have a really fresh way to do it, nowadays it's just another program about cars.

That's not what I had with Schmiedmann either. Bought from them once and they are boarder line over-packaged my items, it's not a complain of course. I hope they will fix up your order quickly for you. Fail that, maybe you can claim against FedEx?
-
I know it's not on the list but I'll be keen on one for my E90 LCI sedan if they have one.

Get a built sheet and see if a remote option is in your car at all. Would save a lot of guess work. Even, maybe ask at a dealer to see if you can get a remote for your car. They can cross check this for you through VIN number. e36 had remote locking for sure as mine had it.

Please host everything if possible. Many of us are fans of other brand as well as BMW I am sure.

Been there, done that. Easier if you take that side window out (remove nut behind the seat belt adjustment thing on upper B-pillar), and while you replace the bottom rubber, might as well change the upper curve piece.

Looking for a BMW mechanic near Remuera

You can try BM Workshop Grey Lynn - They are not exactly "cheap", but they know what they are doing. It's good value. Just curious, what works are needed for your car? -
Check the dimension of the photo. I had trouble with large pictures sometimes.
-
What exactly were you wanting to find out from the manual? Did you have a function/feature that you weren't too sure?
-
Seen an article on that car before, the development work from Dinan are serious stuff.
