Hi, I am thinking of buying a 2004 BMW 525i (without sport package), I was just wondering if anyone knows if Consumer Reports or some automagazines have reviewed this car and what type of rating it received? I was a little concerned about the steering, that active system.. Is that standard in all...

Hi. My 540i with 150k miles needs yet another set of tires. Had been putting Michelin Pilot 235/45ZR17s on them but they don't see to last, and the last batch have been really uneven (flat spots on parts of the front tires causing thump thump etc.) So, am looking for a decent but inexpensive...

Hi Folks I recently changed the front pads on my 740 E38. Strange thing although they were listed as E38 they were slightly different to the ones fitted in as much that a grinding wheel was taken to each pad to chamfer the top and bottom to match the original ones. However I digress, but since...
