Rego : LSH524 Hey team. Im needing to replace all my front bushings, my right side needs it most but I may as well replace all left and right. Could 1 simply quote the part numbers for each individual bushing for my model car as I am unsure about this and want to be confident when completing the purchase. And also to answer why is Lemforder bushings cheaper than the Genuine BMW? I thought Lemforder manufactured the OE bushings? BMW bushings charge $77 and Lemforder $23 (USD via FCPEURO) any answers to this would clear up my curiosity. I’ll keep my stock arms for the time being as I know M3 arms are a decent upgrade. But I’m focused on the maintenance first. Help is much appreciated.

If I was to replace my CCC unit for another I understand the procedure to re-code it to my car . But to understand to buy the right unit as I’m buying from a dude with 2 units from 1 being 320d 07 and 2nd being 08 335i which I assume is part with lci.

Hey guys could I have some assistance one finding the part number for my ccc unit. Rego is LSH524

Thanks mate, Ill do some looking this coming Saturday and Sunday. I’ll keep you in mind. Appreciate the help.

Can someone please assist on maintenance steps to execute this problem, I will drop below a reading via Carly. help is much appreciated!

I’m not looking to spend large amounts on new M3 arms, just decent bushings for a weekend drive.

Would u recommend poly bushings also?

Would u recommend poly bushings also?

Control arms themselves or all bushings within the arms?

Needing advice!! Would anyone know the exact bushing for this arm. RH bushing. Needing to replace ASAP as it has worn out, just by physically moving it with my hand shows. The ride of this is not nice atm, rocks when entering reverse etc. What other bushings should I be looking at replacing if the RH bushing needs replacing ?

Cheers for the info man, appreciate it and I’ll keep you updated via this thread. Also, could the type of fuel company im using effect this? I mainly use waitomo, 91, I’ve heard these places use 10% ethanol blend? Which could be why it’s so dirt cheap most times?

This has all happened within the 10th of July this year. Sutherland Performance wellington scanned my car and nothing came up. No check engine light until I got halfway on my trip up north. (Which was a fright) only maintenance some was install new battery...n check my suspension n came back with my RH control arm bush is worn.

No ABS light, but vividly remember it popping up a couple times a few months ago. But that was when I had my old battery which had a bad battery cell. I was removing it from my car to trickle charge it every 2-3 days. Could my IBS be it? There are other faults too (as of today’s date) but 99% of these faults are electrical issues.

I got this scan back with my own. Both right n left front speed sensors have triggered too.

I’ve pulled out what I can. I’m not an auto electrician expert so I assume it’s best to get it professionally pulled out before I get my head unit changed into an aftermarket one. When installing an aftermarket Unit does the original CCC get pulled out or does the aftermarket need CCC to function?

Yes I have known my CCC is dead and this is most likely the cause. I will take to bmw specialist. Another annoying thing is as the car being a Japanese Import from 2018. The owner then had installed a BMW Japan interface into the iDrive. I’ll attach some photos below of what I pulled out of what was in the fuse box compartment and in the boot.

Make: BMW Model: 325i Year: 2006 Chassis: E90 Ran a scan on my car today and Power Management code 002DED. My car has recently had a new battery installed to be exact 10/07/20 Century DIN 75ZLMF Battery. I was told to install a DIN 66. But mechanic said DIN 75 would be best. I knew my car never went to sleep as my centre DVD consoles lights still illuminate n make a funny noise only when engine is off. Sometimes it will turn off on some nights. As my iDrive Navigator Display is not working. Could this cause this code popping up?

Recently had it scanned 2 Friday’s ago. Nothing came up, got it scanned as I had a long road trip that weekend. Made sure it was okay before. I have recently bought myself a scanner but in transit...

Hey My N52 E90 has been having issues. Could most likely be VANOS solenoid. I have been cleaning these multiple times in the last month. Worked the first time but recently it has got worst. Looking at buying 2 new. But could there be anything else.??? EXAMPLE OF POWER LOSS Car likes the stay within 2k rpms when cruising and has serious hiccups when increasing and decreasing speeds. When shifting into DS the car rpms go from 2000 to 3500-4000 within a blink. Car idles around 600 which I have seen is normal. Starts up perfectly fine. Yesterday I took out the VANOS solenoid I the morning (Car hasnt started up yet) to check again and the oil was black n smelt burnt. I am changing this within a few days. But this is a first with it being dark n burnt smell. Any ideas guys what might be the issue besides VANOS?. All help is appreciated.

How am I able to find correct fitment for both brake pads n rotors. Got a E90 325i 06 Msport import from Japan so cars owner Manuel is foreign. Recommendations on where to buy and what to buy are thanked!!

Checked all structural parts here are some pics below. I cannot see any damage besides those little ball bearings in strut tower? (Please explain what this is) car is at 12.5cm height both sides. No difference there. cheers!!

I didn’t exactly check the height difference but all there I will check over when I get home tonight. I’ll lift it up and check the top ball joints too.

Will do?? Cheers mate

I lifted the car up this morning and no sign of any broken ball joints from what I’ve seen online. I drove about 20mins after the incident happened last night and there is no vibrations anywhere in the car and no swaying. I did this by letting go of the wheel gently for 5 or more seconds. But my car is getting checked for a check engine light this Friday at Sutherland performance in Wellington. They should find it.

I was driving my E90 last night and just before completing a U turn my front right wheel gave itself a new look. It looks like negative alignment. Is this caused by a damage lower control arm? Please help.
