There is no remote central locking..
I'll try the bulb today and let you know.
Cheers Brian!

I've done the red black wiring mod by soldering and heat shrinking the 2 red black wires from the wiki page. Thinking that might solve the issue.. But no joy.. I got to the central locking module and inspected the board and relays inside and there's nothing obviously broken or detached. The link to ...

Is there a module in the drivers door that drives the central locking???

Forgot to mention its a 2 door H reg 318i

So I thought I'd start a new thread with a bit more detail to my central locking problem as it's really getting on my tits now.. With the car unlocked, the central locking clicks. Firstly it clicks just the once, then after about 1minute or so it clicks repeatedly every few seconds. The button on th...

Hi, I have h reg 318i auto and since buying it I noticed that the drivers door locking mechanism sometimes pops up after locking the door from the outside.. Thus making the door unlocked... Both doors lock and unlock on the key and by pulling the pin, but when the pin creeps up on the drivers door o...

Hahaha!! Ok I'll have a look!

Yes standard saloon (2 door)

Thanks very much!

I'll have a read!

Hello,

I'm planning on changing the suspension on my 318i (H reg) and not sure of the strut diameter..

Am I right in thinking they are 45mm??

Many thanks

Those pipes look very nice! I'll be doing similar soon so how much for them??

Thanks Brian mooooore...
Don't worry PAC1982.... If you knew what I did for a living you'd understand that I'll be doing it properly... Thanks for the info guys. I'll be doing mine on Friday.

Just about to fit this to the 318i auto coupe I bought from the zone this weekend. Do the door cars need to come off or is all the work in the glove box area?

Absolutely perfect!! Thanks!!

Happy new year!! Just snapped my throttle cable on the m1 and currently sat on the hard shoulder! I'm trying to order a new cable from GSF and they say they can get 2 types. One is for 320's, 323's, 325's and the other is for an m40 engine.. My car has an M42 16v engine so would I be right in thinki...

Thanks guys!
I can't lock the drivers door with the key it just moans at me... I guess I could lock the drivers door and climb across and get out the passenger side and lock the rest manually..
I'll take it out and have a look, thanks rav!

Morning!!! When I locked my car lastnight after driving home from work the central locking didn't work! I can hear the module groaning in the drivers footwell but the drivers door won't lock! Is it possible to fix this module or will I need a new one? I'm a bit concerned as I have to leave my car in...

Very good!! Thank you!!

hello!!
i am going to be fitting a complete set of new springs and dampers this weekend nd wanted to know how the front shock comes out of the upright...
is it just an interference fit?? will it require a large hammer and oil to get it out??
cheers!!

i think it is the propshaft that is the cause of this noise...

can anyone tell me if a 318i prop will fit a 318is please??

hello, my touring has started making a knocking noise and it is coming from the rear of the car. basically what happes is everytime i come off the throttle, or unload the drive train, i can hear a knocking noise. it is speed related. the noise goes when braking or accelerating but when at constant s...

after having had much fun in the snow and not touching any curbs ect my steering had developed a wierd knocking noise. it only happens at certain amounts of lock in either direction.
could this be a S.column UJ problem or am i looking at another steering wrack?

very council!

great thanks guys!

are they SE skirts??
anybody? NO? Dust?

i saw a touring at brands hatch last weekend, a 325i, that had a black trim along the sill. i know its not an m-tech trim, i just wanted to know what its called as i would'nt mind getting one for my touring.
thanks

hi
does anyone know where is good to buy new panels from? i need a new front valence (facelift) for my diamond schwartz touring.

the panel filters are good as long as they are oiled properly and cleaned out from time to time.
i have used k+N panel filters on all of my road cars so far and have never experienced any problems.

hello i am in exactly the same situation as you. my exhaust is shot. its got to be the original from 91. i have looked all over to see if there is someone that makes a de-cat exhaust for this car but my searchings have been fruitless. i have now bought 2, 2.25in silencers from a company called merli...

me too! id recommend useing a k+n panel filter. that way you stick to a stock air box with cold air feed.
