They look great . I'd love to get hold of a red set for mine. Definitely an upgrade I'll try for may be next year

Looking good highway1! Great looking wheel, good offsets and suit the Zed very well...but I may be a little biased.

As a reward though took the car out for an hour with the missus in tow and stopped off for a little light refreshment.

Managed to get to the solenoid that appears to be jammed closed, no wonder the manual pull cord didn't work! Its out of the car now so lloking for a replacement one of these: Seems production was stopped at the end of 2003 so is there an upgrade available? Might just leave it out if nothing is available.oldgitdave wrote: ↑Fri Aug 11, 2017 2:09 pmThanks kis just what I needed. Going to look at that over the weekend.

Hi, I'm near Derby. Thought it might be the solenoid as it's supposed to lock/unlock with central locking. It just doesn't unlock. Just trying to remove the panel above the compartment to investigate but cant see how to do it.
You don't actually need to take the whole thing off, just the middle-upper panel to reveal something like this
Then hopefully you'll be able to see whats the problem
so have posted in the problems page. Will get it sorted one way or another

Dave, I take it that's the centre catch for the roof operating motor? You don't actually need it, in fact BMW removed it from the later cars. There is no way the hood can lift up as you are driving, it's too heavy.oldgitdave wrote: ↑Sun Aug 13, 2017 8:52 pmManaged to get to the solenoid that appears to be jammed closed, no wonder the manual pull cord didn't work!

No Mike, this is the solenoid that locks the centre cubby storage between the seat backs via the central locking. I'd have brought it up with you whilst I was there today but I think both of us had had enough today

Started the deep clean for ZedFest, so it's bumper and headlights off, for a good clean and polish.
Bodywork is part way through, with a final polish and wax this week. Calipers and wheel arches are scheduled for Saturday

Coming home tonight heading for the "finished" M3 fiasco the gantry told me just after J10 on the M25 that the M3 Westbound exit was closed (Shame it couldn't have told me that while I was still on the A3)!
But at least I could get off the M25 at J11 and have a bit of a hoon on the B-roads around Windlesham! Just reminded me of why I love my Z4!
Despite that the OBC is now showing 34.0 mpg (with an average speed of 40.5 mph)! It seems like the faster I go the more economical it becomes.
