    M market watch

    Even so they aren't fragile and being the last iteration of bearing installed into S54 they are obviously showing they are better than the ones in the E46. For what they are the Z4M is incredible reliable in the two I've had over 50k neither gave me a big bill outside of routine maintenance...

    M market watch

    Still an advocate of bearings being overblown. From seeing people replacing them on here over the last 15 years the bearings that come out of worried garage queen owners at 40k look identical to those coming out at 120k. Seemingly, most wear is being done early on in life. I think ive seen 3...

    E85/86 Mileage poll

    April 2006 Z4M, 3 owners (4 if you include bmw) 81500 at the moment. I bought the car in July 2019 with 63k on it. 18500 in my ownership so far. Since having kids in 2023 it has declined but like it too much to get rid. I fancy adding an e39 M5 to add to it for family weekend trips.

    BMW Z4M S54 - slight hesitation/stutter when you press the accelerator from idle.

    Different issue. It seems to be something to do with the throttle position sensors. Ive heard of success and failure of this but unless you want to rev the car at idle it doesnt effect the car otherwise. Apart from if your napping at lights it can make the engine lurch which is really annoying...

    BMW Z4M S54 - slight hesitation/stutter when you press the accelerator from idle.

    Mine is also the same, its annoying at junctions but drive around it by touching the accelerator with a slight amount of rev and it seems to solve it

    Google AI

    Most people are moving from Google search to Chat gpt, stops all the hard work searching through the internet separate pages and piecing your issue together. I have an mountfield ride on lawnmower I bought as a package with my new house, not that old but no documentation. The engine instruction...

    Photos with AI

    I use it a lot, general rule of thumb when documenting a subject is to shoot wide medium and tight to tell the story. Tight can be too tight and the medium shot gives a different emotive feel. Sometimes I need space for graphical elements for marketing purposes so this is really where it helps...

    Holes in the hood

    You can find replacement hoods from about £200 and £1000ish new just better to replace. Mine has it on both sides too. Part of it is care and unfortunately damage done before my ownership but not putting it down when it is wet and the roof can be adjusted so it doesn't catch on the rear rubber...
