Hello, I ordered a TIS CD (and ETK and KDS and all that stuff), but I can't figure out how to get it going. All the files appear to be there, but I don't know what file to double click to start it. Any ideas? Thanks, Richard

What types of things will be necessary to fix or replace on an E36 when it hits 100,000 miles? How about spark plugs, shocks, rotors, pads, springs.......which parts have seen almost their entire life and should be swapped out? Tom 1995, 325i convertible, automatic

My understanding is that -- in the UK at least -- overall theft of newer cars is falling because it is getting harder. DAS For direct contact replace nospam with schmetterling --- > wrote in message ...

Does a 1990 325is auto have a LSD or open? non convertable. It is a 4.10 but not sure if LSD or not. Somebody once posted a list of all years of E30 and the gearing and if LSD or not. Anybody still have that?

Looking for a stereo system wiring diagram for my 2001 330 ci with the Business CD and no CD changer to determine my plan-of-attack using aftermarket gear. TIA

I've finally figured out what the problem is with my newly bought '92 BMW 535. The air flow sensor is messed up. I removed it and measured the resistance while opening the vane and it wasn't linear at all. Closed it was 680 ohm, opened a little about 1100, almost fully open 110, and completely open...

I am looking at a 1995 525i that is for sale for $8000 Condition is excellent, car is fully loaded, and has 97K miles, and at least on paper, this looks like a good deal. Having driven only Toyotas all my life, can you shed light on - yearly maintenance costs ? Toyotas are fairly economical to...

A friend of mine has a 1998 328i auto. Friday last week, he was towing a caravan up a steep incline +-5km long in 3rd at 80km/h (3,500RPM). When he started the decent, the car was engulfed in smoke coming from the transmission, or that's what it seemed like 'cause the smoke comes through the...

Bought the car recently and everything is lovely. Yesterday my wife called and asked what I had done to the sunroof! Can anyone suggest a fix - was working fine and has just stopped - nothing when I press/push the switch. BTW I blame her. P.S. double sunroof model (1994)

All, There is a procedure using a huge pliers for checking balljoints. This procedure checks the movement in the joint in the vertical direction, however the outer ball joint is supposed to control movement horizontally (affecting caster and camber). Hence the test with the big pliers does not...

Gordon, I've just got exactly the same problem on mine ('92 520 sei)......check the microswitches in the door jambs, these have a habit of filling with crud and stuff..not done it yet as the weather is crap here in scotland at the moment...if you have already fixed it, what did you find?

can anyone suggest a way of fixing my '00 523 touring(e39) of the following problem.... basically it is very poor off the mark and lethargic to drive...obviously the car should have power but it seems to be dead... if anyone else has had similar problems and been able to fix them, could you...

All, I have a E39 540, currently fitted with Michelin Pilot Preceda tyres, 235 x 45 on the front and 255 x 40 on the rear - which I now need to replace. Here in New Zealand Michelin advise they have no 255 x 40 tyres and have no plans to stock them. I'm not a hard driver, do longer trips, but...

Okay, I thought this would be easy but apparently I'm a moron. The manual says to insert a screwdriver into the opening to remove the inner hook. As much as I try, I don't really see a hook. I see a plastic piece over a metal piece which I'm assuming is the "hook" mechanism the manual...

BWM 2001 325ci My hazard lights are stuck on, I'm sure the switch is bad. I figured I could just find the fuse and pull it, but I pulled every fuse and they never went off. This was the fuse panel in the glove box. Anyone know if there is another fuse panel or something for the hazards/turn...
