Hi! I bought a bmw m sport last week and was very happy with it. It is 2008 and has 113k miles on. I paid 6100 from a private seller. I've never owned a BMW, or an auto before so these may be normal problems I'm having. I have noticed some issues and would appreciate if somebody could give...

Hello! As the title states, I get fault on all four glow plugs although I have replaced the controller module and checked the plugs (I put in one new and tested the rest with a multimeter). Is there a fuse that may be blown or something? Thanks!

I have recently purchased a 2004 very low mileage 645i. It has 19" wheels and the alloys to me, are not a good look for the car. I'd like alloys with the BMW badge on, but want to avoid fakes. I have seen alloys advertised on the site below and wondered if these would be any good, or is it...

My 540 was recently converted to LPG and has thrown a "check coolant" alert twice since then, in about 1000 miles give or take. It never did this before, could just be coincidence, both times when the alert went off I had to top it up a little, not loads just a little. Is this likely because...

I am having an issue with my 56 plate 116i E81. The air conditioning will not blow cold air. I have had it re-gassed which apparently it didn't need but had this done just in case. This did not fix the issue. From some more investigation I have checked the ambient temp sensor as some people...

Hi guys, I'm new to the beemer forum and new to the German scene so like all car optimists I have plans but don't know where to star with regards to sourcing and parts. I think it would be best to firstly start with some details of the car and set in some pictures for you all to see :) I'm 21...

Hi All, I am new to the UK forum (as I firstly registered on the .com version..!!) and have had my 1998 840ci around 6 months now. Having bought it at a reasonable price I was expecting to have to carry out some repairs and have learnt that some are cheap and some are very expensive...

I simply had to try this new thing after seeing it on TV recently. Apparantly the system totally decarbs my 135,000 engine and i will notice an immediate power gain, smoother idle and increased fuel economy. So i paid my £86 and after 90 mins i couldnt wait to see the change. The first thing i...

Hi Firstly I am new to this forum, as I tend to spend more time on the Alpina one. My current BMW fleet has just recently grown, as I have an E30 325i (currently nearing finished restoration) amd have just bought a 2000 CS. As the 2000CS is a much older car, I was asking if there is anyone on...

As per title. I want to sell my facelift 330ci in couple month and im thinking it'll sell better if i get the front done to eliminate the stone chips. I got a quote of £700 the other day by one bodyshop for bonnet, flick into wings and front bumper. Is that the sort of price im looking at...

Evening all, I've been going mod crazy recently on my bimmer but if finally struck me today, I only have the shitty little key with a light on it. The car when I got it only came with the emergency key so I got the replacement from the stealer. How can I tell if I have an alarm fitted? More...
