They also made our lovely cars for us.🙇‍♂️

I've never owned a Japanese car, but I was always under the impression that they were super reliable. I've been educated :oops:

Also public flogging and the stocks.

But in the defence (defense) of Americans, they can at least quickly build smooth, wide roads and don't tend fill the verges with copious amounts of litter (unlike modern Britain).

Off topic slightly, my son had a 1998 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Tiptronic (or 996.1, for smorris_12 :p ) and I would say the performance was very similar to my 2007 Z4 3.0Si Auto. The major advantage was that the 911 was much more comfortable in which to drive longer distances since the suspension...

Like smorris_12, I did my own wheel alignment after changing the front wishbones and inserting PU lolipop bushes. I could physically see the front wheels were toeing out considerably. At first, lying on my back under the car, I almost gave up on trying to undo the solid trackrod lock nuts, but...

Thank you very much Zedebee. :):thumbsup: I recently changed the front suspension wishbones plus swapped the lollipop bushes for Polyurethane ones. This caused the steering angle sensor to get upset after a couple of days of driving. I was trying to find somewhere to reset it in the "Steering...

Curiously, when I look at this thread on my phone the text that I wrote along with the photos does not appear. It displays OK on my PC though. :unsure:

I no longer like a rock hard ride but I still enjoy the Z4 for its speed and open top motoring. My Zed has 18" wheels with sports suspension. The car was getting too bumpy for me so I decided to experiment with slightly higher profile tyres at the rear. I changed from 255/35R18 (Michelin) to...

No carpet cutting.

I did that option with integrated voltmeter, but you might want to remember to give yourself another way to power the 12v tyre pump. I carry a socket to connect to the battery, like this : https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/carpoint-12v-cigarette-lighter-socket-with-battery-clamps-10a-550775000

Castrol Edge and Magnatec seem to reduce the infamous N52 tick for me.

Nice. I like your neighbour's Vauxhall Viva too !

Lovely car. Might see you around :) Bought mine from Zachary Luke too. Nice guy, not your typical used car salesman.
