Hello All, Long time no post. After much thought, careful deliberation and, following recovery from a nasty divorce and even nastier illness (I hope has gone for good), I have to accept I don't use my car and it is time for her to go. She is Titan silver with black leather interior and...

Hello everyone. I might be going mad, but thought I posted this several weeks ago and now the post seems to be hiding from me! Anyway, my head unit has pixilated and I would be interested in seeing if anyone has one they might consider selling. i foolishly missed a Becker unit on ebay recently...

Hi Well havIng had only 800 miles worth of play (although she did make Goodwood revival) I am weighing up what I need to do to put the Zed into hibernation for winter. main issue for me is I only have a rented garage with no electricity so the battery could be an issue!! So, answers on a...

Hello All, Yes I am still alive just rather pinned down with the divorce thing at the moment, hence my lack of posts! However, I took a weekend out to attend the Goodwood Revival and my only regret is I haven't been before! I can comfortably say I have never attended an event of its quality...

Hi Everyone I finally dodged the clouds and the rediculous summer rain getting my car to ''Clean me'' who have recently opened up a unit in Bury St Edmunds. They are a Dad and Son team. Dad has been in the trade for a number of years and is evidently passionate about his business. Prior to...

Hi Curious to know the exhaust to get for a Z if you could? And is it a case of noise improvement or power too? Also do you need to remap for the system like we do on bikes when we fit one? Rob

Very briefly i have a ebay chappie who says he has a mint head unit. Not so comforting is he reckons the display is red. Can Anyone else shed light on this or were ornge and red normal oem's colours??

Hi Everyone, Does anyone have expereince of detailing firm based in Bury St Eds? I am paranoid sticking in the wrong place to get the car back to a level and having it chewed up by cowboys! A chappie on here made a v convincing case to go to his place but it was miles away from me in Salford...

Definately wanted! My Business CD unit is pixilating and rathert than send it off for a dodgy repair, I am hoping someone might have a mint one tucked away somewhere they no longer need? Let me know. Rob

Hi I have been comparing old write ups between the Z and the Porker and wondered how many of you here considered one before settling on the Z? If so, what was your main reason for one over the other? Highly unscientific but when I was after a sports car and impulsively purchased my one, the...

Hi I am off to france later in the year and intend finally purchasing a GPS unit. I am happy to buy Garmin over TomTom as much due to the fact Garmin supply the nav data to the RN. I'm settling on the Garmin nuvi 2545LMT and wondered if anyone else was using it? Ty Rob

Not sure what to do here so several responses required, please. Situation: My Z is very low miles (7.5k) but came with light scratches on its bonnet from where a cat obviously got tucked up one day. The driver door also acquired some nice claw marks courtesy of my go's 2 dogs within 5 mins of...

Hi Does anyone know if a repair can be made to the pixel screen on the radio as my one could certainly use it until a decent Becker comes along! Rob

Ok, Next head scratcher. How does the trip computer work? Ive managed to get the clock changed but any other info it can show me remains a bit of a mystery! Ty Rob

I have only just discovered the second key supplied for the car isn't infact for my car! Quick call to dealer confirmed he was surprised to hear this..........hmmmm So, can anyone tell me the price I am looking at for getting a bespoke key for the car and did you have to go through BMW. Also...

More head shaking for you: Whilst applying previously discussed tonneau cover, I casually pushed down the right angled hood clips that otherwise secure under the front windscreen. Well, come the end of playtime tonight, I discovered they didn't pop back out! Had anyone else done this and, if...

Well, I finally managed to get my car out of the garage having not seen it in a month. Naturally the battery was flat and needed a boost making me feel guilty I hadn't had time to see to her 'needs'! To raise a head shake from you all, I couldn't (or knew how to) get the roof down BUT...

Hi everyone. Me again! I've followed various threads on here and the detailing website but am now struggling with info overload! Simply put, can board members give me very basic advice what 1,2 or 3 stage process they would apply to my z3 which has only 7k on the clock and was, by all...

Hi, Well the installed player has gone all funny on the screen and doesnt have the needed mp3 connectivity so, what do you recommend? I had a look at one unit called parrot (?) that had a wealth of connectivity but, I wondered what people generally went for on here. If I could find it cheap...

I believe I might have a blank missing next to the hood operator switch (2000 3L). Is there another spare out there...assuming the blank doesn't actually have a purpose which I have missed? Ty Rob
