i'd like to attend,but thats only if you guys dont mind an old boy in a e38 hanging around?
the old tourer had to go im afraid

although now days the journey to work is alot more comfortable!

sorry to hear that mate

gonna have another play tomorrow,i'll let you know how i get on,thanks for the advise.

cheers,every time ive tried one in there the display says "CD ERROR" but its also done that with normal cd's too so im not too sure.

yes, had it apart a couple of times now,fitted some subs the other week. all the connections seem ok. theres only the din lead and the power supply plug going in to it. the rest of the wiring in there is for the amp thats part of the bmw buisness stereo system. was yours the same year and model? did...

comes up alot of the time with "CD ERROR" which usually requires the magazine to be removed and replaced and then it usually plays ok,but it doesent take much for it to jump and skip about.not sure if it playes cd-r's either,havent managed it yet.

the pioneer cdx-m40 6 disc changer in my 7 is about as much use as a co*k flavoured lollypop.
anyone know of a replacement with a 14 pin din connection and play's cd-r's?
any advise would be very appriciated

can anyone help? i have a 1996 735i with buisness type head unit fitted and need to know if there is an rca output in the back?
cheers.

fitted it with help from a friend, took 5 hours.

problem solved though mate.

was that the first or second time? i remember a small problem?

posibility of a faulty cat,and worth getting checked if your not sure but,new exhaust sections generaly are tinny for a hundred miles or so untill engine deposits settle in the new parts and slow the flow of gasses further.

again work permitting i should be there,it'll be my first! dont finish till six though and takes half an hour to get home,work the wrong side of brighton!

good luck mate hope alll goes well

The advisories are crafty bastards. What it means is that if the cops decide to hassle you for your old BMW, they have a full record of what your car was advised on - they can then check that. In the event of an accident they can check it also. quite crafty if its your car, wouldent be seen the sam...

im sorry there guys but as a current mot tester,have been for the past 12 years,i cannot believe that these are passing with no advisory's. i currently work for a bmw dealership testing 3-5 year old bmw's and the like,and i find plenty to advise. either the tester is doing a bit of a pi** poor job o...

left side about 30 odd cd's,plus other crap,right side amplifier. dont seem to have anything of any use...... will need to rectify that quick sharpish! coul end up being a bit

looks like its crashed straight through les smiths sporty big bore barry back box boy racer department.

need price and availibility on cambelt tensioner for a 325 touring 87' cheers

yes the radiator is good to get out the way first, and won't be an issue as you have the cooling system apart anyway. Do replace the tensioner if your not sure when it was last done (or if it was a while ago), easy while its all in bits. Use a genuine belt they are about Ã‚£12 from the dealer. For ...

after some advise please guys,gonna undertake full service,cambelt and water pump change on my 325 touring.can i replace the tensioner,if so any idear on cost or availability? and is there anything thats likely to spring a surprise on me? also is it wise to remove the radiator for a bit of extra roo...

i do approx 125 miles a week in my 2.5 touring and pending on how i drive i put about Ã‚£25-Ã‚£30 in a week. shes due a service and shes knocking on the door of 150k. fuel in my neck of the woods is Ã‚£1.07 litr. not bad for and old bucket!

i found when replacing my rear metal brake pipes for the mot it was easyer to replace both hoses as well,alot less agro.

thats nothing,last time i done a e30 the guy was looking at both outer sills corroded through,both front jacking points corroded through,complete metal brake pipes from front to back inc hoses,rear subframe bushes,tyres,bulbs ect, ect, ect..... needless to say he had the work done because he knew it...

i realy need the 34% increase in voltage to my headlamps,can't see jack most of the time!!!!

nice one mate enjoy!!!
