I was watching Youtube and saw this, I know a couple of brave souls have fitted digital G29 style dashes, this seems really easy to do now? https://youtu.be/v00ogEH36Os?si=XMK_6y0EOtMKSLlO The link sends you to a uk website (via China), seem to have some nice E89 goodies on it and offers discount

Thought it was time for a wee face lift, revised grille fitted

Just back from from its service and MOT at BMW.... :thumbsup:

Has anyone fitted an FITCAMX dash cam to their G29?

I had to take the other half into work early this morning (in the Toyota thing) as there are no trains running due to last weeks storm, I was just heading out of Glasgow when an alpine white E89 crossed my path, even after 16 years these cars are still looking fantastic.

I'm happy, I can watch my favourite films in the G29 :D

So, I jumped in the car last night (its been sitting in the garage on its charger since Saturday) go to the media button to select Spotify and its gone! Yes, I know you can get Spotify through Android etc, but this and Alexa have disappeared from my apps on the car. So after about 30 minutes of...

I've always avoided black cars because they never look clean, but they do look good when they are clean. Beginning to really like my G29 :thumbsup:

Hi folks, been trying to update the software on my 30i via myBMW, message comes up on the phone: Upload complete. Please continue in your BMW........ nothing happens. I had the car in at my local BMW dealership today for a check up (which it flew through), I mentioned about the software and was...

Hi, thats me I've finally made the move to the G29 from the E89! Slowly learning all the features that the car has to offer, spent part of the day sorting the technology to my configuration. After 9 years, my good old E89 goes to a new home today, it's been a great car.

Hi, having owned this for coming up to 9 years, I've decided to sell my 23i automatic. Its been garaged all the time I've owned it (I know the previous owner kept it garaged also) and regularly serviced, always by my local BMW dealership except the last one where I took it to a specialist that...

So, my E89 has awoken from its SORN and after passing its MOT (now in its 9th year of ownership with me), I decided it's time for a change. I went to look at a G29 30i (BMW approved), this one had the comfort and the Msport pro package. I must admit it felt a very familiar place to be after the...

It's that time of year again, and we are just back from having the MOT done.... yes, she passed again! (no advisories) I was sitting in the MOT station and realised that she is 15 years old this year! :oldman:

Hi, was on the BMW configurator and I couldn't see the 30i, has it been dropped?

Well, the car went in for its usual filters, oil/brake fluid change (+1 seized brake bleed nipple) + front pads and condition check. My mechanic said that headlight vertical aim control sensor regulation rod was broken, so I had a look on Ebay and the cheapest new one I could find was £23, so...

Little review on should you buy a E89: https://youtu.be/aqaqIv99PvA Hard to believe some of these are just coming up to 14 years old..

Hi folks, while my Z hibernates in the garage for the winter, I've bought a peugeot rcz to play about with. Now they have a sealed led third brake light which is astronomical in price to replace. I've found a guy that offers a service repairing them, considerably cheaper than buying a new one...

So, winter is now upon us (even though it's pretty mild at the moment) so Ive stuck the Z away in the garage until the spring. I've kept the insurance rolling but for the first time I've actually SORNd it (covers the RFL for one of the other cars then). Its sitting on its trickle charger and I...

Ok knowledgable E89 people.... how many fuel pumps has the 23i got? Been trying to find a definitive answer, I think its 1 and its only the bigger beasties that have 2? (35i / 35is) :?

Well I decided to change my air filter and pollen filter, I had a look at Eurocarparts and for the 2 filters after discount £39. So I had another look online and found the exact same filters cheaper with carparts 4 Less and if I spent over £30 I would receive free delivery. So I ordered another...
