Old Technical Info

Post by skelters » Thu Jun 14, 2007 11:29 pm

It would be a real shame if all the Technical info on the Z4um is now lost.

Is there anyone with a backup or anything that could be restored onto here?

I picked up a lot of information in the past from both Z4um and zroadster.net on things to look out for, check or fix something.

There was also the information on what to look for when buying the Z4.

I doubt the creation of this forum will win me any favours from the old mods, and I also suspect there was no backup.

Don't worry though, how-to's and technical info will be along shortly!

It was the set of technical articles that I miss most from the Z4um. Zroadster doesn't quite hit the mark.

Can you elaborate more on what sort of articles you mean? You'd be surprised at what I can lay my hands on :wink:

I moved the SatNav retrofit guide to http://www.zed-cars.eu/discussion/Topic12188-4-1.aspx you can link to it if you like.

It was articles such as unblocking the drains in the wells where the hood mech sits. That is just one example. And I am pretty certain that I saw a posting on removing the door cards, but I did get something useful on Zraodster for that. I used to browse the article to see what I might persuade my wife to let me do to her car!
