    Hi, I've recently bought a 320d 177bhp and am looking to get it remapped with DPF removal and EGR delete as well. Been quoted £450 for the lot, seems a good price. The question I have is do I need to use premium diesel once it's done? I've heard it a couple of times but never been told why...

    Hey Folks For the year I've owned the car, I've looked at flaps that basically close off the front grill. Searching revealed they are part of some "active aerodynamics" doofer. I don't think mine open, in fact, they actually feel like they are seized shut. I dunno whether my car should have...

    Hey folks Got an annoying problem with the car. There is a kinda vibration that I can feel through the bulkhead and dash at certain revs. It comes in around 1300rpm and stays until 1600rpm. It's like a sort of buzzing roughness, almost like some heat shield or something is rattling off the...

  10. BMW 5 Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of 5 Series
    Hi, does anyone recommend buying a BMW warranty for a 2009 E61 520D? I've been on the BMW website (https://www.bmw-warranty.co.uk/) and the quote is £58/month with £250 excess (or 75/month with £100 excess). So this would work out around £700/yr. Both do not include the £9/month extra for the...

    Hi all! My girlfriend has a 2007 120d msport - 177bhp. It has never "put a foot wrong" in the 4 years we have owned it, but over the last few weeks she has noticed a flat spot around 1500-2000rpm. Only noticeable when labouring the engine, rather than driving hard up through the gears. It...

    Mine is a 2007, '57 320D SE (177BHP) Touring with the doomed N47 engine.. I was driving on the M40 on Tuesday in the fast lane when the engine suddenly lost power - luckily I was able to coast it onto the hard shoulder.. Turns out the timing chain has snapped. It has quite a high mileage of...

    Hi All, I've had some experience of tuning my Subaru's over the years and now have a MY08 120d 177BHP M Sport. I think this is the "E90" engine. Searching around here I see a remap might extract 200 - 225 BHP. Further to that do these cars respond well to a CAT replacement (or the diesel name...
