Hi all, What's the difference for RTTI between CIC and NBT? Also, if I pay for the RTTI feature for CIC, does traffic info only comes via TMC or does it come in via internet as well? Many thanks!

Got my 2016 gran coupe 435d with adaptive suspension yesterday and while it's a lovely car I found it rather boring to drive when I took it out yesterday. There is no sense of speed. I've come from a remaped 2008 325d touring which feels much more connected and feels faster even though it's not...

I was looking at getting this replaced for a while, symptoms were some rough idling when hot and I was evening thinking of buying the part and fitting it myself until I learned it would need adaptation. Anyway I paid a indy garage with a solid rep in Wigan and it's like the car is brand new...

Thanks to a member i followed a link to a website to check out part numbers for suspension ... Up until my car overheated and ended up at another mechanic (which turned out to be a good thing for me !) i never realized, as it came up on their paper work that it is an M52 What does M52 mean and...

Does anybody know what the difference is between the two different types of DPF that are fitted to the e90s and why there are two different ones? Seems that two different types are found on early e90s with the same engine code

Hi everyone, I'm new to BMWs and due to order a new company car. I'll be getting the 330 petrol hybrid but I'm not clear on whether to get the SE or Sport (not M Sport) model. As far as I can see the difference is some gloss paint on the Sport model, sports seats in the front and some red...

Performance figures between the 2010 BMW 320D efficient dynamics 163 bhp and the M sport 184 bhp. looked long and hard on the web and found nothing. The road tax is something like £10 pa for the 163 but £110 for my 184 M sport. Just cant see what performance on the extra 18 bhp etc does...

Hi everybody I have a French registered LHD 2008 E91 335d. Can any kind member of the forum clarify the difference between a vehicle inspection and a vehicle check? The car computer tells me that the inspection is due next month but that check is not due until 2020. Is an inspection likely...

Hi, I'm new here. I bought a 323i with a 731 head and not sure about what camshaft it has but should be of a 323i. The car had a vacuum (suction) on one of the exhaust (they are separate headers, 3 and 3). I had some time to remove the head to see what's wrong. I found that piston 6 had a dent...

Hi everyone, hope this finds you all well. I was just wondering if anyone here might be able to advise me on whether I would cause any issues by swapping my front 19" alloy with a tyre size 235/35zr19 out for another 19" alloy with a tyre size 225/35zr19. My tyre is not a run flat whereas the...

I'm hoping this is a really daft question, but I've just spent £300 on a brand new NOX sensor from Germany, and I've noticed that the part number on the continent seems to be 7 587 130 05 and UK seems to be 7 587 130 03 BMW doesn't even acknowledge the 03/05 as part of the code, but I was just...

Hi All, Is there any difference (apart from programming) between the CIC in the E9+ series to the CIC in the E6+ series, in otherwords will one out of a E90 fit into an E60 cheers

Hi All, New here as i picked up a 320D Sport 2012 last week, lovely car and lovely drive. My main question is what is the difference between the Sport and the M sport apart from the badging? Also want to add things to the car to make it look nicer but not something it's not if you see what I...

I have searched and searched but i cannot seem to find the correct answer. In the e46 coupe 320, are both the OS and the NS (driver and passenger side respectively) window switches the same part? On REALOEM they are two different parts (61316902175 OS) and (61316902178 NS) On ebay, i can find a...

I have a 2.0D in my 2015 X1 which is fine but drove a 2.5X1 (I think same engine but significantly more powerful) and was blown away. Intrigued: what is the difference? if they are both twin turbo 2 litre engines is it simply engine mapping or has the more powerful one got bigger turbos etc...

Hi, my dad is buying a new car and very interested by the 320i convertible, this would be a car from 2007-2009 so the E93 I think. Could anyone tell me what the difference between the suspension on the SE and the M is? I understand the M has stiffened suspension; how much firmer is the ride...

Has anybody got an idea or proof of power gains removing this on 335D Thanks.

Hi all, I'm looking at buying a 7 series (F01/F02 shape, 2012 onwards) and have found two different styles of dashboards. Apart from the obvious, can anybody tell me the difference between the two? Does one have any more features than the other?
