Z4_Tom Introduction

Post by Z4_Tom » Sat Jun 21, 2025 1:42 pm

Hello all, My name is Tomasz and I am from Basingstoke.

Recently I have become a proud owner of Z4 E85 3.0i from 2003.
The car is a brilliant. I have so much fun and pleasure to drive it.

It has few issues that need to be sorted out but step by step I will bring it back to it's glory :)
Hence my registration to this forum as I am researching for solutions, "how to" and checking other people experience and suggestions.

Looking forward to be part of this community and thanks in advance for all the help!

Hi Tom: I'm Jack, from Canada. I just purchased a 2003 with 30,000 km. I love it. Changed the tires (22 years old) and the transmission fluid (manual). Maybe put some Bisteins on soon, and new spark plugs.
