If the mechanic is 100% sure, then ask him to purchase the fuel pump and replace it. If it fixes the problem, then pay for the part. If it doesn't, then it's his loss and needs to investigate further. Or get a 2nd opinion from another local mechanic. I can vouch for Brian's advice and has always bee...

Hi Azzy,

I have used injectortune and the service is excellent. They did the injectors on your old car ;)

Just want to say, the lights received were as described and packaged securely.

Recommend Martijn and trusted me giving the money after I received the lights.

Great member..!

cheers, still a honey colour, so will leave it.

Thanks

Hi,

Quick question, I have driven the car around 500 miles since it was last serviced last year in late September.

Is it worth carrying out an oil and filter change or do I leave it until I get more miles on it.

Car: BMW E30 325i Sport 1989

Thanks

Thanks Brian

The central locking works perfectly and works with the alarm fob aswell.

I will check the brown/green wire and see if its all connected accordingly.

I have had a look, two wires are connected to the switch of the following colour:

Brown/Yellow
Brown/Blue (purpley blue)

Thanks

Thanks will have a look today and let you guys know.

Hi,

I have a scorpion twin tail pipe back box on my 325i sport. Unfortunately, one of the brackets holding the back box has broken and not useable.

Does anyone know where I can purchase the bracket?

I have checked the vacumn pipe from the FPR and no sign of fuel. I am weak in identi...
