Hi all Due to a change in family circumstances I need to sell my beloved Z4 :( 2006 metallic black with 43,000 miles and full service history, 6 months tax. I have the car listed for 13,995 which makes it the cheapest 3.0si listed on pistonheads. The car is located in NI which may restrict...

Hi mate, thanks for the link I will need to read it a couple of times to take in all the info. Fairly confindent that it's not the abs as I cracked an abs ring and therefore triggered the abs on my last car. I am now worried that I have warped a second set of discs....

Dear all, I am hoping that you can help me out with a problem I am having. A while back I started to have brake judder only through the brake pedal and not the steering wheel which led me to believe the rear brakes may have been at fault. Stupidly I gave it to quikfit to take advantage of...

Hi guys sorry for the confusion, I have bought a h7 hid kit of the bay. It includes the bulbs, wiring, ballasts and canbus cancellor. The original halogen light is secured to the light using the wiring connector, I.e. The wiring has a metal clip which screws clockwise into the projector...

Hi all With the shocking state of my lights I have decided to take the plunge and upgrade with a HID kit, I have read lots of info. on the web regarding the legal status but to be honest having headlight washers and insuring that they will be aligned properly after install I think it will be...

Hi all Following from an earlier post regarding high speed instability I want to get my alignment changed. What would be the recommended setting for a non-sport 3.0si. I guess having a little less rear camber would be good but does anyone know what the original specs are? Many thanks Steve

I have had an alignment done a while back and it made no really difference, however I wasn't too happy with the guys doing it so I may try another (could anyone recommedn some spec.s that might help. Springs are fine... I think I have had one replaced already but I will check the others...

Hi folks Following all the great advice from my last post regarding current valuations I have decided to keep the Z4 over the winter at least :D . Therefore I would like to sort a few quirks... these are a fairly bouncy ride and most importantly instability at speed. As a background I have a...

Hi Lyons yeah that is mine on usednicars, have to say it looks pretty well in comparison to the rest. Cheers steve

To be honest the fuel costs aren't really the issue, as I manage to get 33mpg. The current plan is to get something a bit more suited to my daily drive with is a ten mile cross country (nicely suited to the Z4) followed by a 20 mile motorway slog (which the Zed can be a bit tiresome) and then...

Hi all Many thanks for all the response, I would agree with the fact that my location and the SE spec. does reduce the number of potential buyers and I have had it on sale for about a month and a bit. I think mike you are right that buying a banger is probably a false economy. Woudl you guys...
