325xi

Hi guys! I am going to be installing a cxracing axleback exhaust (let me know if pictures will help) and there was a question i had. The mounting points are off so i think im going to end up drilling a hole from the bottom up to my trunk and make a supporting bracket that way. Is there anything...

Hi guys! I am going to be installing a cxracing axleback exhaust (let me know if pictures will help) and there are 2 things i had a question about. 1) WHY THE **** DID I FIND A BUTTERFLY VALVE i have a 325 not a 330. (not too important to answer i just thought 325s didnt have them) 2) The...

Hi, my 325xi is nearing 100,000, miles, and the when the cooling fan starts it seems to be too noisy, emitting a high pitched whine. Is there a service procedure for the fan or electrical motor, or is there an exchange service for these parts, can the motor be simply swapped out? As usual this...

Hi guys! I've looked long and hard for a cheap exhaust system for the xi model of an e46 but there is no such thing as a cheap exhaust that will fit an xi...SO i've decided to cherry bomb her! Thus, i need to know the size of the tubing of these exhausts, not the muffler tip size, the size of...

Hi guys, i am trying to seafoam my car but for the life of it, my brake booster line will not come out. I took off the old clamp and pulled, pulled some more, and yanked really hard at one point but the hose will not budge! I don't even see the point of a clamp! I put a new clamp on ofcourse...

Hey guys :) I'm back with another couple of questions :) 1) Where in heavens name can i get a remap done!? O.o i hear they are awsome but i have no idea who'd be able to do that. and just to make sure, a remap is when the ECU is reprogrammed to give better performance correct? 2) I was hoping to...

Hi all, My car is the 4 wheel drive version that isn't sold in the UK. I've done almost 100k miles and am shortly due to change the front brake pads and fluid. Could anyone recommend after-market pads and (I'll check whether they need doing) discs. The standard set-up has been fine so I am not...

Hi guys So i saved and saved and saved and my first car was this 03 325xi zsp. Now i do not have much cash but this thing is completely stock, save for the bigger wheels and tighter dampners for better grip around turns. I want alittle more power as every tuner does so... a) Whats a good cheap...

Is it possible that push fit coils can move and lose contact with spark plugs and cause erratic misfire problems? Thanks Are

The car had been parked outside overnight, and in the morning it would not run smoothly. The code is for cylinder 2 misfire. The coils and plugs (newish) have been swapped, and the fault remains the same. The plug for cylinder 2 was like new, with little sign of firing. I know humidity can...

There is a thick black greasy layer on the inboard side of the left front hub assembly of my lhd 325xi. The car has to be reversed on full lock for half a turning circle nearly every time its used. Presumably the cv joint boot has failed, and grease is being thrown out of the cv joint, as yet...
