Bump/update - no offers thank you, especially if you’re going to tell me that my price is more than you’re prepared to pay for something you’ll not use very often. They’re literally the most useless accessory imaginable.

Yeah, they’re an official BMW accessory. They look great when on and prevent crap going into the mechanism/hide the ugly bits, but on a practical level they are a bit of a faff to take on and off.

I really expected these to be snapped up by now, even if from a google search.

I’m afraid not. Must be a very small sheet!

The 3d printing conversation has been done looooads. Problem is in my eyes is that they’re not that popular to make it worthwhile. They’re flawed as a concept and most people don’t want them. But if you’re in the minority that really want them, then of course you want the genuine BMW ones...

Sorry some are a bit upside-down - sodding iphones.

I’d describe these as a 9/10 condition, if not better. £175, located in Leeds and no postage unless you’re going to go bank transfer and take the risk(and pay postage!) Ifyou want a pair of these, I think this is the cheapest price you’ll find, especially for a pair of good ones. I’m happy...

Ah, gotcha, thanks for pointing out! I'll take £2,000 for the non CF version in the meantime, but only for forum members :D

The ones that got a bit silly pricing during covid. Well I'm going to move mine on now as I've never used them ( Belonged to Ronk once, RIP :( ) so I popped on ebay to figure out what would be a price to attract an easy shift on here. And look what I found! Luckily, there's more than 10...

Thank God for that

Well I went and bought the 36mm bit (and an adapter for the torque wrench), a new Mann filter and swapped everything over - and although the filter in there already was new, the or ring was flat/flush which is why oil was flooding out. The new one in the Mann kit was round and was snug. And...

Thanks, I’ve shone a torch and there is drips of oil in all the spark plug holes so looks like a rocket gasket then. Not too horrendous! Swapping and reseating the coils just make more misfire codes - oops. Breakdown coming out to investigate the oily filter housing as it’s really flooding out...

And number 6 doesn’t look well at all. Abandon.

Injectors look like this

Ah, okay thanks - only got a plumbers spanner big enough so maybe a garage job. Especially as swapping 1 & 2 just made them both misfire and I’ve noticed this around number 6…which I’m sure isn’t where oil is meant to be.
