Hi,

Debut post here! Just bought a 3.0i Manual and so far so good. A couple of questions..

1) Does anyone know/recommend a good BMW Indy/specialist in the Bristol/Wiltshire area? Dont really want to take her to the Main Stealers if I can help it!

2) What oil does the z4 E85 take?

3) Has anyone suffered from any condensation in their headlights, mine are quite bad

Thanks in advance for your help! :thumbsup:
 
Hi, welcome- post pics of the car as soon as you can before you get grief.
Try this for your oil:

Condensation in headlights may require replacement/or cutting open.
 
Welcome - I'm in Bristol, so not far from you !
Sorry, I can't help you really yet, as I'm in a similar position, only having had mine a few months.

thanks for your help guys, I shall post some pics on here later

In the meantime I have found narrowed down my Indy shortlist to
Forza in Chepstow
Clayton Cars in Bristol

Anyone used these garages?
 
Welcome to the forum :-)

For what it's worth, Clayton Cars is on this Pistonheads list of indies:

Good luck with the hunt and let us know how you fare...


Re lights and condensation, yes one of my headlights has some. Will try removing the rear-inner cover (not the wheel-well one) for a while next time it's dry for a few days for it to dry out, then put a thin bead of silicone sealant on the seals before replacing. Don't know if the silicone's a bad idea though as I may make the seal actually worse.
 
Forgot those two, Redish Motorsport is by far the best place to go for your Zed, if your in Bristol a no brainer for me. I used to drive down from Reading so he could service my M3. Top guy and treats your car like his own, he stayed in the garage till 9pm once fixing mine as it took longer than he thought! Let me hang around the garage while he was working so could learn a thing or two as well. Highly recommended!
 
If Wiltshire is a serious option, I've been told of Emtech in Salisbury. Friend of mine with a 330 coupe rates them and I'm likely going to them when I pick up my 3.0 this week. They specialise in BMW and £270 for Inspection 2 I believe.
