All, I have just spoken to my local BMW dealer to order an alarm bonnet sensor to find that BMW have superseded the part and the new one costs £35 rather than the old version at £10. Has anyone else come across this and found an alternative, or do I just need to bite the bullet and pay the...

Hi All, I am now the proud owner of a mint condition wind deflector and full fitting kit (brackets for both the roll over hoops and boot lid) courtesy of handy_andy_100 who is sadly breaking his car. I thought fitting this would be a simple process, but having read up on the subject, there...

So, I drove to work this morning, stopped on the driveway of the office to take some nice pics for the advert to sell my Z4. Went to close the roof for the last pic and nothing. Tried again and the roof fully closed, although slowly. Immediately opened it, all fine, so tried to close it and...

Hi All, My zed has factory bluetooth and all works fine except for volume. It is paired with an iPhone 5, and whilst I can maximise the volume on the phone, there doesn't appear to be an easy way to increase the call volume in the car. Thus even with the iPhone volume to maximum, it can be...

Hi, I have tried searching, but found anything helpful. The plastic trim around the gear lever that houses the central locking and hazard buttons appear loose on the left hand side. I have tried pressing it down, but without success. Thus, how do I remove this fully (really concerned about...
