    Gearbox Help

    So i get a call from the wife today saying someone ran her into the curb, no real damage, no impact marks on the wheel, but she said it was a loud bang. Moments later after she arrived at work the car will not go into gear, or so it would seem. On closer inspection the gearstick has lost all...

    Anyone had their nose re-set after break?

    Wondering if anyone on here has had any nose surgery after a break? Managed to break mine pretty good playing rugby on Saturday. The physio at the club straightened it as best she could but as the bone has come through the side there wasn't much she could do. Has been stitched up and is...

    Z4 M Coupe - All/Rear Springs

    I know it is not that likely, but in case anyone has any spare i could do with a set of rear springs for a Z4 M Coupe, probably the same as the MR??? Drop me a PM if you have anything, otherwise i will have no choice but to lower it 8)

    Retaining Number On Car With No MOT

    Arse biscuits! Completely my own fault but in preparing to sell the Z4 MC im going through the motions of removing the number plate. Only to realise you cannot remove a plate if the car has no valid MOT. Its not a huge issue as i plan to MOT it anyway but still a bit of a facepalm moment :roll:

    Drink Driving

    I'm sure none of you guys do but be warned they are on the prowl. Went to rugby training last night. Finished by 8 to watch the first half of the France game, had a single pint of Carling. Pulled out of the club at half time to go home and they were sat waiting at the bottom of the drive. Even...

    Scoring on windows MC?

    Anyone else got this on theirs? I'm assuming they comes with a factory tint or something? Right at the back edge of the windows on both sides there is some scoring lines which looks like it is in the tint. It looks like it is being done inside the door mechanism, or perhaps because the rubber...

    Rear Tyre Recommendations?

    Hello Gents, Its time for a set of new rear tyres. Current set are Goodyear Eagle F1's, the directional versions if that helps. They seem to have performed reasonably well to be fair, very progressive in the way they break traction so fairly predictable and easy to control. I am leaning toward...

    So was excited to actually use the cup holders in my MC for the first time since owning the car from Oct last year, only to be disappointed at actually how terrible they are :o Went to the Costa drive through and felt smug when she asked if i wanted a cup holder as i could turn down the offer...

    Another Parking Sensor Thread

    Since i know how much you all like telling people to use the search function i figured i would stick this up for shits and giggles. Car beeps constantly in reverse, done the usual trick of listening with the ignition on and car in reverse gear. All seem to click as regular as the rest, so that...

Has pushed the pax wing in a bit and the pax door no longer lines up or opens/closes properly. It's def going to be a new wing and door as...
