Well, I almost bought the bluetooth kit for my M3. I sent BMWUSA an email first asking about bluetooth with assist. They replied and said that they were working on one but had no expected date of availability. I guess I'll wait until later this year. I'd hate to install bluetooth only to find...

Speeders are a threat to other motorists. Speed kills. I am sure many speeders eat sound meals, exercise four times a week, and even have plastic surgery to look good. Count on a shortened life, if you drive your car at excessive speeds. Too many people think THEY ARE NUMBER ONE on the highway....

Recently bought a 330i and learned, much to my surprise and disgust, that BMW used bolts instead of lug nuts to attach wheels to the car. This makes mounting wheels much more difficult than with lug nuts (and wheel studs). You need three hands instead of two. (Most folks only have two. What is...

Can anyone tell me with which gearbox I'll have better acceleration? 4-speed manula or 5 speed manual ? the car is 733i 1977... thanks...

I have a 2001 325cj and I'm having a problem with the windows fogging up. Not just the windshield mind you but every window in the car. The defroster takes care of the windshield but not the door windows or the rear windows. I don't have an auto sensing control just the dial controller, It happens...

I seem to have developed a nasty leak coming from the timing cover on the drivers side on 98/540ia and i am trying to find out how difficult this is to repair. Do I have to lift the engine to remove everything I need in order to remove the cover plate(s). It is not clear in the manuals - I am...

Technical question - I've noticed that some people (for whatever reason) aren't too fussed about using quite some force in throwing open their doors all the way, until it hits the retainer, before getting out of their BMW. If, say, a previous owner had been repeatedly doing so over a number...

for some reason sometimes the alarm will not arm, unless the passenger door is the last to shut! strange problem to have, I guess something isnt resetting or some problem with connection on passenger door, just wondered if this was common or any obviously problem anyone could think...

Holy Cow.... I think somebody is a little bit sensitive. Corey, are you sleeping with Mr. Bangle? I simply asked when is BMW going to do the next 7 series makeover, and you interpret it as "whining". I think the only "whining" is to be found in your defensive rant. And after your tirade is...

Today I was looking at a leftover 2004 325Ci coupe that has about 20 miles on it and has never been registered. The sticker was originally $35,700; they are asking $32,900. Does $2800 seem like a fair discount for a 2004 model? I was at another dealer ealier in the day and they had a 2005 that...

Anyone else experience mice nests in a BMW glove compartment? I put traps in the garage, which seems to have stopped it for the time being. Had to clean out nests every 2-3 days for the last month.

Hello everybody 1987 320i E30 Apart from the pump, what should I check to fix windscreen washers that stopped working some time ago ? The wipers work fine. Is there a relay somewhere ? I can't find any help in Haynes. Thanks for any pointers.

I need to replace the shifter for my '93 325I automatic. Any tips/ tricks for getting the center console out?

I have a 325TDS touring c1997 (UK P reg) with the airbag light on. The fault shows as the firing circuit for the passenger seat belt tensioner. I believe these cars we the subject of a recall for the wiring under the seat. This involved swapping a short piece of loom with a more robust plug. Does...
