Renewing UK warranty is it worth it? by Mick
I've had my renewal notice from BMW through today: £510. I renewed it last year on my 1999 E46 323SE, but did not make a claim. I also only do about 8000 per annum (mileage 46K). Has anyone ever got a discount from BMW for low mileage and no claims? What do people think of these warranties?

BMW 325i radio by Ken Bonin
I have a 2003 325i and somehow the settings on the radio are set for European mode. i.e. if you want 590 on the AM band it says "MW 594 KHz" instead of "AM 590" or "MW 1197 KHz" in lieu of "AM 1200" etc.... I tried holding down the "M" button for 15 seconds to bring up the menu to change the mode...

E30 creaking seat by David Haggas
I have a 1990 E30 sport which has developed an annoying sqweak on the drivers seat - maybe my weight is just too much for it. Any suggestions as to how to cure this? I have had the seat out but can't find the source of the noise or where lubrication is required.
