I'd be very, very angry. So kudos for keeping your cool. Ask why the bumper has been repainted, and then ask why the tyres were knackered. Surely they're aware of leaving a car standing? I'd get a second opinion somewhere else. Yes, it's more money but if it's your baby, then long term it...

Found some new YouTube to follow. Thanks for sharing your exploits. The Mountain at Caldwell isn't so scary in a car compared to two wheels. I can hear the crankshaft going light, how does it feel?

Managed to borrow a cheap code reader. It fished out; P0102 P1415 The first one is MAF related. Tried disconnecting the plug whilst engine was running and it seems to improve idle. Second seems to be about air pump. Vacuum related?

At your age, you still haven't grasped political speech is poles apart from political actions... I'm a benefit receiver. A carer. I get £83.45 a week. And in 2019, I was saving the tax payer about £21k so you can probably double it with their currency devaluation in 2020. Sincerely, I'd love to...

Cheers, will track one down. No change in revs after hosing the pipe with easy start

Any recommendations? Am used to a laptop cos I also run a Ford (several others in the family circle too) so Forscan is very handy

It's an N52. Don't have a cable yet, am at the mercy of Evri. Hopefully tomorrow. Any other way to read them? Will spray some easy start around the pipe, it'll pick up RPM if it's leaking

This is the pipe that runs from MAF to the throttle body? It's just lit up the EML. Fitted a new alternator. Was hoping to swop out the manifold but the weather decided not today. I've checked all the plugs etc. What have I done:/

Cheers, will give it a try. It's unhappy idling. Which is strange considering the plugs are new and the coil packs are less than 18 months old.

Hi all. How many miles does it take for the car to relearn what's what? Done about 8 miles so far, and it's still not 100% on idle. Seems fine at all other throttle inputs. Cheers

What is NCS? Is it part of Mike's easy BMW tools?

Seems it needs a reflash https://www.e46fanatics.com/threads/the-final-obc-retrofit-thread.355599/ ...You have to explain to the dealer what you did and want you wish to accomplish. I told them about the button and how it just needs a reflash through the MODIC. I hadn't found any good updated...

My bad. Replied to wrong thread. Sorry

Reflash. Auto correct wins again

Tasty. What's the dimensions on those fat rears?
