    Help me or i'll get mad.. years ago i've bought a Vert M3 autodim mirror from a guy on e46Fanatics , once it arrived i realized that it couldn't work due to the different frequencies between USA and EU. I already had the standard autodim mirror on my vert, so i swap the interior of the old one...

    My missus had an issue when closing the roof last year. It started to close then stopped. I managed to put it back down and have been using the hard top ever since. When I looked through the history of the car, I noted that the boot loom was repaired 4 years ago. On investigation, I saw that...

    Hello all. I've had quite a few E30s, E36s, one E39, two E46s and an E90. I have now purchased a E36 Vert again but it does have a few issues. I really need help with my roof. I have a hardtop on it, but the soft top is in a bad state, the rear screen needs changing as it's come off the...

    I have an e46 vert 2004. It has a ski hatch sub but it?s rattles like any thing. I was thinking about update the whole system. Looking at the HU I would like a iPhone connectivity and updated speakers in the front and a sub in back. Does anyone have suggestion of what I could do. Thanks

    Hi guys, Ive had a few 36s across the years, not massively mechanically inclined but some knowledge. I grabbed a monteral blue vert the other day, great body inside and out but the 2.5 is incredibly sluggish and slow at picking up speed. Sadly its a auto so not great from that front but what...

    Had this issue with my passenger front window for quite a while now. The window does not go up with the master all window switch, it goes down bud not up. I installed a new switch yesterday and still the problem is there. More testing has revealed it's the 1 touch up operation that does not...
  9. E46
    Hello all, This isn't my first BMW but it is my first E46. I went to view the car on the spur of the moment on Sunday and picked it up on Wednesday. I'm pretty pleased with it and have a few ideas I'd like to document and share with you along the way. I've found this site is great for tips and...

    Hi guys, been a while since I posted but I'm back in the fold and I have an 1998 E36 323i vert that I have been putting back together over the last few years. However I've been getting a common problem where fuse 7 keeps blowing and I struggle to operate the roof and every time I put a new fuse...
  11. BMW 6 Series - Tech Talk E24,E63,E64,F12,F13
    Evening folks. I've done a lot of searching and I suspect I know the right answer to this, but everything I've read has been about the E60 rather than the E64 so I figure it's worth checking.. My previous car was a 2004 645ci and the (diamond) key worked from miles away to unlock or lock the...

    hello guy's, i ran into which i think is an issue on the installation on the new lowering spring kit. I started off with the rear as its the easiest. so i pulled the old spring out and compared the 2. the issue i have is that the old spring mounting pads don't have a snug fit as they do on the...

    We have two remote keys for the car and they have both stopped working this weekend. The cars can be started and doors locked and unlocked with the button inside. I first thought the batteries need looking at but 2 to stop on the same day would be too much of a coincidence. I've plugged my...

    Hi all, I have a e36 vert and am trying to wire up a new third brake light. I don't want to blow any bulbs so was wondering if anyone know which order the wires are connected or has pics. There are three pins but only two wires brown (ground) and blue/pink (live). Any help appreciated, thanks.

    I've got a 2003 E46 convertible with factory Harmon Kardon setup, that I was perfectly happy with. Last year I had the old (aftermarket) head unit swapped out and a new unit fitted that would do bluetooth etc. I havent blasted the music out at any louder volumes (im 40+, so getting on a bit)...

    Hi I'm in the process of selling my horrible 645ci and looking for a 12 plate onwards, RELIABLE replacement. I am torn between the 3.0T Audi S5 convertible Vs the 650i F12. I would remap either, so the Audi would go to 450bhp (with pulley mod), and the 650i bi-turbo will go to around 520... I...

    So, recently acquired a 330ci sport vert 2004, 95k. Memory heated leather with memory power fold heated mirrors. Only the drivers side mirror was working (ie adjust/fold/heat), but the pass side was not working. Popped the door card off and saw that the pass side was disconnected. Reconnected it...

    Good evening everyone, My '99 convertible roof is playing up. It needs the tension straps doing, so I have to "help" it clear the deck cover... while discovering this, I needed to pop the motors and do a re-sync... all good. The other day I went to put the roof back up and it just sat...
