318i auto not engaging top gear!
Hi all,
my 318i auto has stopped engaging the 4th gear which is a pain as i do quite a lot of motorway driving.
Oil level is fine but could do with a change soon. Something to do with a cable maybe? Any help would be great!
Thanks in advance

I have a 1.8 auto in at the moment which is pretty lame. Is it worth putting a m42 in or would bigger be better?

Headlight not working!
My near side headlight does not work, i just bought a new bulb for it which made no difference and i have checked the wiring to the light and it all looks good. It worked fine about a week ago and just randomly stopped working. Ive even checked the wiring with one of them screwdrivers that lights up...
