Not sure this belongs in the Market Watch thread, as it's not really relevant to the purpose of that thread? Just posting this for novelty's sake if nothing else. Spotted this UK import is up for auction at the moment, will be interesting to see what it goes for. Sapphire Black, 2004, 95,000...

As the title says, the Z4 is now with a dealer, after trading it in on a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport. A bit of a change from the Zed, to say the least. I just wanted something I could grab rain or shine, summer or winter and drive it. 6 speed manual, hard & soft tops and two sets of...

Just noticed I clocked up my 3000th post, making me a Lifer on this forum. I can't believe I've managed to post so much shite, but if I've managed to help anyone, at any time, I'll consider it worth it :lol: . I'm actively looking to change the Zed for something else, but honestly am struggling...

I'm starting this thread to document a problem I had today and hopefully any fix that might be applied. A bit of info: 2010 35i, 84500km, MHD tune stage 1+, 5" FMIC, BMS POD filters (I know, I know - they were on the car when I bought it :oops: ). Cool day today - 14C so no issues with temps...

As the title suggests, I am looking at trading in (or part ex I think you guys call it?) the 35i on a 2006 Cayman S. I really don't know much about Porsche at all, and haven't test driven it yet so it's early days yet. It doesn't have sport chrono package, so I'm not even sure if that means it...

So I'm not sure if this will cheer you up, or P*ss you off. Apologies if it's the latter. This was my view today while working on a project to remove decommissioned fibre equipment from exchanges around the South Island of NZ. Sorry about the wind noise (if your speakers are on), it was only a...

I had a visit from member BTZ461 and his friend who had just bought an ///M and was preparing to drive it home to Queenstown - a nice near 6 hour drive south. Grabbed the camera, took a few shots and got a bonus drive in his roadster. I was surprised at how 'normal' it was to drive, having never...

As the title says - how can you accurately determine if your car tyre or tyres is/are deformed? Not just a 'strange vibration at xx speed' but is there a way to tell if they're not true? Thanks

It's been an interesting week. I've been back and forth to the car dealer just down the road during quiet times at work and as of yesterday afternoon was one deposit away from removing myself from the BMW world and entering the unknown waters of Jaguar ownership. I had a 2013 F-Type S vert lined...

I've installed MHD flasher and the logging module. I'm not really sure what I should be aiming for as far as 'good' logs go so I thought it might be time to start a new thread for those with logfiles to upload for comment/advice etc. I'll start with a couple of logs taken tonight. 3rd gear from...

As the title says, I will be attempting to clean the intake valves this weekend prior to fitting a new fmic and charge pipe, and remapping. There are plenty of youtube vids online, I've found what looks like a good one for a 335i that shows all of the steps, but was wondering if anyone here has...

The stars and suns and moons aligned for a get together today. The usual suspects, Scarlet-Jester and I, plus a new member BTZ461 and a friend of his with a beautiful E30 M3. Quick catch up in a cafe car park, then off to some twisty bits... Lined up in the car park - to be fair, I was there...

Shamelessly stolen from m3post :oops:

Just putting it out there - can you display any info other than speed on the E89 digital dash? I'd like to log some IAT's as I'm looking at a new intercooler soon. I want some comparative data to see how much difference it makes. Failing that, I have carly with the BT adaptor now (have always...

I came across an auction listing for an Electronic Throttle controller for the Z4. Apparently has multiple modes to change the throttle response. I know you get this functionality with a remap, but I'm curious how much difference this device would make without a remap (I've found the 35i...

I have finally had the bluetooth phone and music integration (that I paid for when I bought the car) added this week. I understand the combox was not available until the Sep 2010 model, and mine's a July 2010 build so I don't think there was any chance of an OEM retrofit solution. I've had an...

Okay, I know we've done the jap import car names before, and believe me we get some good 'uns straight from the land of the rising sun here, but... I don't care if you're giving this away, I'm not driving it. It looks like the first part of the badge 'fel' off :oops:

What can I say? You'd have to be a borderline sadist to reverse park up to a footpath with a tow bar and walk away without a care. Hands up anyone who has ever smacked a shin on one of these in their life? (that's right, probably EVERYONE). Now, where's my angle grinder? :x

So I'm seeing on the news that you're experiencing a furnace blast from the Sahara. I've just come back from a few days of driving south to some exchange buildings, removing redundant fibre equipment. One morning was -7C and you had to watch for black ice in the shade. Some spectacular views of...

OK, maybe a bit harsh - everyone's entitled to do with their car as they see fit, please yourself and all that. So judge or judge not, here's the first slammed G29 I've seen, rocking what looks like 20"s (or maybe bigger?)
