Hello everyone. I have a 06 E90 with the Xenon headlights. I want to change my headlamps to make them a bit more modern however I am struggling to find exactly what types are my bulbs as every website I go on says something different. My Xenons are D1S, right? I would like to know what type of...

Hi all, If possible please could you provide any advice/guides/links etc to the removal of the front slam panel? (struggling to find anything using the search function that goes that one step beyond just replacing the front bumper...) I'm repairing a bit of light front end damage (cracked...

E60 gear shifting issue Wondering if any of you can shed any light on this: I normally drive my 07 535d M Sport in auto "S" gearbox mode, sometimes using the gear lever as the M/S selector to go up and down the gears as required. Earlier this week I noticed that the downshift e.g. 3-2-1 has...

Hi folks, Can anyone recommend a decent set of bulbs for my car? I’ve just had an evening taking the headlights out and cleaning them up etc. Went to fit the markers I ordered and they are just too chunky to fit. I can’t attach a picture to a mobile thread but I will post one later, but they...

Hi all Purchased a 535d a few weeks ago and I think the dpf has physically been gutted but the dme hasn't been coded as it still tries to regen. How much would it cost to get this removed from the dme? Thanks in advance

Hey guys, I've recently been upgrading some of the lights in my 116i and wanted to change the angel eyes to a nice and bright white. I'd looked at some videos and saw that people swapped out the H8 bulb (which is a H7 bulb in the pre-LCI car) for a white one, and that made the angel eyes...

Taken off my f31 touring 2014 model. Complete with gutter, light bulbs. Part number AK246 Its in excellent condition. Maybe some very light marks as its used. But havent really used a microscope to notice? Delivery is included. Ill knock £15 off if collected from Birmingham £275 pm me if you...

Hi, I've experienced Professional Navigation problems (option 609, CCC, pre-facelifted E60 from 2006) - I have the sat nav DVD drive on the centre console just below the CD slot below ventilation controls. A few days ago it started asking 'DVD read error. Please check DVD', or something...

I have a custom made exhaust on my 325d,it's 335d style to make room for a spare wheel under the bot floor.Car is going up for sale soon and have put the original exhaust on. Question is,i got someone that might be interested in buying the exhaust and as far as i know,it should fit the 330d as...

Anyone got anything before i buy new?

I think the actuator is dying/dead on the car, and for some weird reason the connecting arm between the actuator and turbo has popped off. Stuck it back on and got the standard fault codes and an actuator that didn't seem to really want to move. I think the variable vanes on the turbo were not...

Hi all, I have an PRE-LCI E60 (2003) with standard halogen head lights. I've recently bought OEM xenon PRE-LCI headlights. Will it be possible to retrofit pre-lci halogen to pre-lci xenon? Anyone can advise? If it is possible, what is required? i know coding is required, but to actually hook...

Hi All, My first of many posts here. I've just managed to pick up some cheap heated leather seats from a pre-LCI e60 and looking to install them on my LCI e60 that has just got electric seats at the minute. I've searched everywhere and cannot find a guide anywhere. I was hoping someone would...

I have 18" 193 wheels with standard sized tyres on my car (225F/255R). I am thinking of getting some new alloys and have just got my head round offset but may also keep them if I can get them to fill the arches a bit more - without dropping the car. I was going to fit spacers (15mm?) all round...

Hi all Amongst other things I want to get a a spoiler for the rear of my car. It's a sport model and I think the little spoiler is perfectly subtle and suits the design. The one that attaches to the rear edge of the boot - not the thin one that sits on top of the boot (which I think better...

Hi all, Simply, I have a silver 08 325d and am thinking of changing the grill. Lots of black ones out there but for me the black suits darker colours better by 'disappearing' more than the contrasting chrome. But also importantly, 4 cylinder cars have black slats whilst 6 cylinder cars have...

Hi! Simple question, I have standard seats in my pre-LCI touring (E61) and wonder what headrests fits this model? Any BMW model facelift/none-facelift. I would like to upgrade the headrest since I need something more comfortable when making a longer journey.

Hi All, I'm not sure what the sound relates to. taken a short video clip with the whinning sound close to the rear drivers side. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Thought I might have finally cracked it but it would appear not. I've a 56plate pre-LCI 520d that has developed a tendency to surge in power under acceleration. Basically feels like I'm lifting off the accelerator then going back on it ever second or so. Bits I've done so far: DPF gutted EGR...
