Yes, srhutch as per my earlier post!

Servicing/maintenance and roof - RBM, Hook

(I have a rough set of MV1s which would work as donors)

You are running MV2s with very large tyres, they are normally 225 fronts and 255 rears. You should be able to pick up a good set of wheels and tyres you like the look of for about £400. There’s always a few sets for sale on here and lots on eBay or look up Simon Ireland on the Z4 owners Facebook group.

The Chinese cupholder replicas are supposed to be quite good, but let me know if yours doesn’t work. I have a pair of OEMs, which are probably made in China also (!) but I’d like to sell them together.

Regarding the fuel filler solenoid, if you can’t find a “how to” on here, try contacting W63 who has done one very recently.

Enjoy the weekend

Hi Scott, to replace the filler Solenoid you need to remove the rear wheel arch lining, which can be a little tricky to get out. The solenoid is held in with two torx screws. I would recommend a good head torch as it is very fiddly and access is limited. A lot of this is done by feeling rather than seeing. Defiantly a DIY job so good luck. Wayne.

Hi Wayne thanks that is very helpful and kind of you to reply with the advice. I've had fun with the nearside rear wheel arch lining already as I was investigating if the well above is full of water, Zebedee Ben has sent me a detailed exploded diagram as I got to the first top three securing and couldn't find the other ones, I need a bit more time, patience, axle stands and hydraulic jack, which I have yet to purchase. If anyone has any of this and no longer needs it and lives reasonably locally in South West London or Surrey I am in Twickenham TW1 2PD I would be interested to hear, I would want some tall stands and a good height lifting jack.

Many thanks again. The replacement has arrived so need to test then fit, it cost £10 from a breaker and is warrantied to be working.
