    Disposing of Z3

    The scrap yards will give you scrap value which will only be £2/300. If you look under the car and see your cats centrally mounted you have a few quid there.

    Disposing of Z3

    Depending on what engine and age your zed is you'll get a good £2/300 for the car and if you can be bothered to remove the cats they fetch £500+ Or just flog it to @spurs fan in a coupe to break.

    I'm lead to believe it was all down the car HP, that's how they were taxed in Germany back then. Read it somewhere.

    Bella is Broken!!!

    I know what has caused this, as you age you shrink and therefore your legs are getting shorter. Maybe move the seat a little closer so you can use the full range of the pedal =))

    Possible Vanos issue.

    No issues with carb cleaner, might be worth taking it off and giving it a clean, just nuts n bolts. It's strange as my dads 2.8Tu thats been parked up for a year is now doing this same thing, hunting and cutting out cold at idle, Once I drive it and get it all warm its fine. P.S I would start...

    2.8 No Undertrays??

    If you want your zeds to last you want a way to keep all the road grim off the front subframe, bushes, power steering lines etc. We’ve had 100’s of zeds up on the ramp and you see a huge difference to the condition everything having a full under tray. FYI you don’t need to take the full tray...

    immobiliser problem please help!!!

    As these systems get older they will start to cause problems. The easiest and cheapest fix is to send off your ECU and have the EWS system, (immobiliser) disabled. FYI, if the Immobiliser is not activating you wont hear the fuel pump prime and no 12v supply to the injectors. This will also...

    2.8 No Undertrays??

    As you've noticed the 2.8 had a front lower shield for rad air flow. Get an under tray from the 2.2 or 3.0 these will fit fine.

    Works well with the 2.5 also, wont be documented here as we didn't get the 2.5 Z3, that was an American variant.

    Another Vanos solenoid question

    Could be onto something there. Could swap them round and see if the fault moves.
