Had the alloys refurbed early 2019 (acid dipped, sand blasted and power coated etc) and since then I have been through 4 sets of brake discs and pads. They only last around 1500 miles before you begin to feel steering wheel judder whilst braking and it gets progressively worse over time. The...

Hi, i'm hoping you guys can help me with 2 queries i have. Firstly, since i bought my 2013 730d, i have had a few air susp problems. One of the rear struts was leaking and caused an idrive 'chassis' error, so i replaced it with a second hand part (to try avoid the £1500 part from main stealer...

Hi, new to the forum. Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section. Can anyone recommend a good ODB2 tool that also show likely causes and suggested repairs? Scanning the internet for one is proven to be quite difficult. Thanks

Hi guys I'm a the new owner of a 2014 lci F01 730d. After previously driving Mercs I can say I'm loving my new ride, drives better than my last e-class and well more comfortable feels solid as a tank. I bought this car last week without originally noticing that its 2 front headlamps have algae...

Simple really, I need a diagram showing the fuse layout for my F01 730d. The BMW manual is useless - apparently this can be found "on a separate leaflet" and here endeth the story. I get a load of different diagrams online, the only one I think is correct the website required me to sign up, so...

Hi everyone, I wondered if anyone else has issues with a hard brake pedal on cold mornings? I have a 58 730d F01 and this issue started last winter, I had the brake servo and all hoses replaced and the whole brake system checked and was told by two different garages (one a BMW specialist) that...

Hi everyone, I have a 58 730d which is perfect in every way except......I have an annoying vibration under the drivers seat between 40mph and 70mph.

Hi all, Its a 7 series 2010 730d and it splutters and shudders on idle when cold. Revs keep jumping around and sounds like its going to stall but doesn't. When the engine runs for a few minutes the problem stops. It only seems to happen if the engine is fully cold, if i return to the car...

Hi all, I’ve parked my car up for a few days, and have noticed that the rear suspension has dropped/lowered. I take it that this is down to the air suspension being deactivated after “x” days of no use, is this normal? Any advice greatly appreciated. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hey guys need some advice. I was thinking of dropping my 13’ 740d down a few mill. Problem is the rear suspension is hydraulic. What is the best way around this as I’m getting mixed advice from changing the complete electronic suspension for springs to changing the front springs and software...

Hello chaps, anybody got any decent 19” or 20” wheels knocking about gathering dust. Not the boring, drab standard ones, something a bit ‘sexy’, ‘spicy’ with wider rears.:cool Aftermarket okay, M Sport also considered (but usually mega bucks :jaw-dropping) Thanks
