Damn that engine bay is tidy buddy!! What do you use to clean it? Don't you dare just say soap... :slaphead:

A few miles from the house the EML came on. Pulled over in the nearest farm lane and got the RAC to scuttle it off to the local indie BMW garage. Possible throttle position sensor, will find out tomorrow. Glad we were not too far away.
An 800 quid bill looming. Throttle actuator needs replacing which is coming from BMW so its pricey. Because they have the intake manifold off I am getting them to change the starter motor too. It played up over 12 months ago, then never really repeated the fault. But I have always been convinced it was on it's way out. As they had the intake off. it seems daft not to do it now. Should get it back tomorrow. Will be good to get it back as I had literally only got about 4 miles done after it's winter lay up.Swampy1982 said:Trav said:Not a good day. Taxed it.

What a shocker! Hope they sorted it today for you and wasn't something too big

Look good. I have read a lot of good reviews from Simons and will probably go there to replace the tips, if I get round to it.Big Andra said:Today I had a custom stainless system fitted at Simon's custom exhausts in East Kilbride. To say I'm happy is an understatement.

Also adapted a BMW Aux usb socket, so I can plug phones etc into the headunit without trailing cables everywhere.
That's a really smart installation. How complicated was wiring it up?
And it's good to see another car with the rare Cirrus Aluminium trim - I had it in my 2nd Z4 and really liked it.
