Gday everyone, introducing myself here on the forum. Ive recently acquired this beast of a car however it is throwing a 30ff code which has been diagnosed as the wastegates. Im just wondering where everyone sources parts from? Im new to the bmw world but have wanted one ever since i drove one for the first time when i was 15. Mainly after the consumable parts that i need when removing the subframe and turbos, exhaust manifold gaskets, studs, the bolts im meant to replace when disconnected the steering components(name evaded my mind) Any help is much appreciated Planning on tackling the job over my Christmas break when i can leave my car in the factory in bits

Hi All, Thank you for accepting me to this group. Happy to be a part of the BMW family. Looking forward to find some answers to some of my questions about this fantastic car. Bought my first BMW and first car last August. So far so good. However, I've had issues with the aircon gasket cover as it was leaking oil and had to be replaced. Seems like a known issue as per the BMW guy from New Market. Also I find the speakers little weak. Will check the forums for any recommendations, upgrade ootions etc. Also, I have updated my Gracenote to 01/15 in CIC as it is not up to date. Anyone who has updated version, please let me know. I still use CDs. ? Will attach some photos

Finally got an 04 545i, wish me luck. Haven't even laid eyes on it yet as being delivered tomorrow. Looking forward to spending the long weekend getting used to it. Had an E39 523i two cars back and been hanging out for another Beemer but with some grunt since. Keen to keep an eye on here for tips, advice, parts, drives/runs and anything social.
