    Hi guys, I'm not sure if you heard of AutoDoc shop, basically lots of people recommend it to me and I see they actually might have some good prices except what I found out maybe?? Here's the thing so I found out that ignition coil in here FOR BMW (I originally had Delphi), costs £33.42...

    Hello. Just a quick update regarding the car and its slow starting. The starter motor failed completely the other day. It has since been replaced and I cant believe how fast the car now turns over. Maybe the battery wasn't as low charged as I thought. However some nice person on Tesco trent...

    Just got a call from the bodyshop that resprayed my 8 series recently. I had the rear glass replaced at the same time and since then the rear sunblind has been sticking. They agreed to fix it but it turns out that in the process they have broken the offside arm. Does anyone know if its possible...

    Hi everyone, Just became the proud owner of a '97 328i coupe in Calypso red (still haven't quite made my mind up about colour!). Mechanically it seems very good, but does have the typical rust issues. Rear arches aren't great and one side has had a bad cover-up job attempted, fronts have a...

    I have had the run around from a couple of people whose main work seems to be fleecing insurance companies repairing Nissan Cumquats. I'm looking for someone to do some work on my 1982 e21, it's a straight car, NOT rusty, no rust anywhere, been dry stored off the road since 2000. Needs a full...

    The rear wing of my 330d has some paint damage which requires a re-spray. I called at the local main dealer for a quote and was not happy with the repair they suggested. Basically they wanted to spray just half the rear wing (below the crease line and up to the rear door gap. The guy did mention...

    I know this topic has been covered, but the threads I found are a few years old and BM Motors, Law for example seem no longer to exist. Increased low rev whine changing to high rev whistle from the back of the engine suggests my turbo is on the way out. (320d, 118k miles). As a main dealer...

    Hello all, Is there any shop in London (Preferably in Southern London and Surrey) where I can find OEM parts (or even used parts) for my BMW? I need an upper intake book and (probably) a DISA valve. My BMW is a '00 330ci e46.

    Chaps, This has probably been covered hundreds of times, I had a quick look and found a bit of information. My car has an air leak somwhere, my intake pipe is split and the Maf looks original so both of those are getting replaced. What are the other common pipes to split? I've read that the...
