Yeah mine really gone. I used some Raven, and a plastics cleaner, but I don’t think it will last, looks ok in the garage so far, we will see. So next I might try two others GTECHNIQ-C4 is supposed to be superb, never tried it expensive but a lot of people swear by it on the web. Also I’ve...

And cleaned up the earth strap, and a bit of zinc spray on the nut, small wins :D

Cleaned up the scuttle panel, had a go at cleaning the windscreen wiper plastic trim

Hi, having an engine bay clean up, some of the factory grey paint has flaked off near the ABS pump , searched the forum and can’t find any info on a good match for this. Anyone out there can help with a matching paint I can use to tidy up? Thanks

Cheers not seen that link :thumbsup: Sorted, soldered up, bit of heat shrink and some harness tape, all fine now. Still not sure why it was modded that way - left speaker line added to the right speaker line from the CD connection, cannot think why you would have done that.

Quick update fixed this today had the 93AA code Took seat out following the instructions on the forum, split out the air bag connector, cleaned connections best I could with a glass fibre pen. I checked the pretensioner circuit had resistance (YouTube video helped with that). All looked fine...

Hi, trying to get my Bluetooth adaptor working from the CD changer connections- but only finding it working on the Left side of the car. After much messing around nicking the CD changer from the X5 for fault finding...I took out the head unit and found this strange setup. Any reason why you...

Hi, Moving the passenger seat around has kicked off the air bag warning light in the dash. After reading up it seems like it needs INPA to clear this, and also to diagnose the cause of the fault. The helpful PO thinks it’s the passenger seat belt pretensioner sensor. Is anyone on the forum near...

Hi, poking around the engine bay and see a PO has made a headlight washer delete mod. Is this a common thing? I guess if not being used as a winter car stops all the washer fluid going over the bonnet, or the pipe in the front bumper is broken :wink:

busy morning, one of the PO’s fitted some LED light strip in the boot, out of interest I took a check of the wiring :o Interesting use of the old twisted wire joining technique :D :D :D Time for the soldering iron, crimp connectors and some heat shrink I think

Morning all, Looking into a few things on the new purchase, mine has some after market 2 stage heated seats. Passenger side works very well (happy wife yesterday bonus :thumbsup: ) drivers side nothing. Thinking I’ll try to check the resistance out of the switch and compare to the working side...

Stuck on a Roadster, since I miss my Alfa Spider. Loving Bimmerworks VIN decoder!
