  1. From experience I would highly suggest getting a shop to compress the springs Scary as job
  2. That is the correct part number I think, installed exactly the same on my e39. The strut is the same for Msport and non MSport but maybe not for all the 530 model years ? https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-strut-assembly-front-e39-w-m-technic-suspension-556-834#fitment
  3. Hey Dude I will take the Mickey Mouse and oil filter please
  4. Nice, get rid of that horrible stuff on the grill 😉
  5. That is a seriously sorted 130i !
  6. What the hell happened to that poor thing, stolen ?
  7. never had any issues with FCP with multiple orders
  8. Boy that looks bad, I think you probably need new lights to fix that. Not sure a rotary sander is the best idea just go by hand
  9. Cars on Sunday Drive are just stupid pricing, I believe they sell on consignment mostly
  10. Never been happy with the way this car shifted gears but after perservering with different gearbox oils and knobs I am pleased to say I am now happy. Turns out the final piece to the puzzle was a gen ZHP weighted knob, I am sure I probably have worn bushings in there but it's much much better. Would not have thought a knob would make such a difference. Also if anyone is considering Wipertech blades I can report I am happy with mine.
  11. N55 is a much more reliable engine, the ZF8 is just a peach, have driven this combo a bunch. Some horribly modded and abused 135i's out there just like 335i's urgh 😋 M135 all day for me.

    Swaps

    Hi All Anybody potentially interested in a swap for my 07 130i manual , 136k , very tidy, no known issues, 135is wheels with PS5's, standard aside from intake boot and a K&N, more details on request, I have no doubt a manual 130i will be a sought after car in the future, last of the NA 6cyl manuals. Great car, I have shocked a few much more powerful and expensive cars many times :), people just think it's a nana 1 series but if you know you know. I am keen to step back in time to either an E39 540i , E36 328 or 325 or E46 330i manual, I just like older cars I find the newer stuff bland and a bit soulless but I am an old man
  13. Auto/man ? few more details please ?
