Hey - really hoping someone can help me out here! I decided to change up the bulbs in my rear light clusters on my M140i from Halogen to LED. Everything went successfully and they look awesome. Unfortunately, when filling up this evening I noticed that my rear light cluster was slightly out...

Hiya, I’m new here and I’m looking to buy a 1 series. Done a bit of research but getting put off by all the scary stories of faults with this and that. Looked a lot and it seems to be that every car has its own issues. Just wandering if they’re actually a “best” 1 series to go for or wether I...

Hello, First time posting so hopefully I have included all the information as part of the tread! I just bought the front carriers and disc guards from the 123d e82 for my 120d e82 as I want larger discs and would like to know if my 120d callipers will fit the 123d carriers? Will I need to get...

Been doing loads of reading and I still can’t get a definite answer on the limits offset wise on the front of the E82. Many say ET40 whilst people also say ET49. I know the MV2’s are ET47 front and ET50 rear, rear fits well, but upon trying the fronts on the car they seem to touch the front...

Hi all, not sure if this is the right place to post this but here it goes. I recently had my m135i (n55) remapped. For the first few weeks everything was fine and running great. I upgraded my charge pipe shortly after the remap as I was told they are prone to cracking. Everything still seemed...

Once driving i got a random message of the ABS fault, which talks about driving stabilisation and continuing the journey at a moderate speed. Next day this disappeared and just came back on today and letting the car sit for a while is not getting rid of it. It might randomly disaapear once...

Was wondering what headlamp bulbs to select for a pre lci e87, equipped with regular headlamps, not adaptive. Want to update and replace the yellowish looking ones, any recommendations? Many thanks in advance!
