The 130i Thread

Recommended Posts

130i Parts for sale, lowered prices and updated what's remaining. Hard to find stuff like brand new OEM steering wheel insert and OEM Roof racks. Feel free to make an offer if you want a couple things.

I suppose I should have promoted my auto for sale also in this thread for those that don't browse the other ones...

Is it normal for these cars to prime the fuel pump if a door is opened after it’s been parked for a while? 
 

i.e drive the car, park it. Open the boot 20mins later and the fuel pump activates briefly.

Mine is now listed on Trademe also, the free listings today gave me the necessary kick in the arse (and rewarded my procrastination). Bimmersport members should contact me here first if they're interested.

How long are we talking? I haven't noticed that. One of mine wasn't driven for a month.

Seems like a strange thing to do.

No, mine has been laid up for a month on a battery tender and nothing strange upon opening the doors when I got into it today, and I didn't start it immediately. Certainly no extended pump priming. When I did start it, it fired up like new.

Not sure which thread to actually put this in but...
