94 740IL 'disc error' by
This morning in my 94 740IL on my way to work, the CD player read 'disc error' and would not play any of the CDs, which are located in a 6-disc changer in the trunk. Took the changer out, made sure all the discs were in place, put the changer back in and still nothing. Any ideas?

2002 Z3 Brake Pad re[lacement by
Hi- I replaced the brake pads on my 2002 Z3 as well as the front and rear sensors at 41,000 miles last week. Only the front sensor had actually worn far enough to trip the brake lining warning light. I had expected the light to turn off after the new sensors were installed, but it is still on....

Z3 wheel fitment by
I was interested upgrading the wheels and tires on my 2002 Z3. Tirerack.com has an excellent site that shows the fitments of the various wheel / tire combinations, as you all probably know. I like the staggered look, with a wider rear tire. I'm considering moving to an 18" setup. Tireracks'...

94 740IL - will 87 octane hurt performance? by
Had about a quarter of a tank left and went to fill up today. Put in 6 gallons of 87 octane before I realized my mistake, and then put in 8 gallons of 93 octane. Drove the car home (8 miles) with no problems. Should I expect to hear knocking or pinging? Not sure if my "combined" 91 octane or so...

mice in 94 740IL glove box by
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.
