Re: Boot spot weld
Lez completed all the work that was required and also wax oiled underneath for £300. Really pleased with the work carried out. He said the welds had only just started to go too. He has also taken photos before, during and the completed work for my records.

Hi all
Spoke to les at emley and it's booked in for the end of July. Really impressed with his knowledge on the subject and quoted around the £300 mark

Re: Boot spot weld
My main concern is finding someone who has done this type of work before on a z3 and is aware as what to do. Would having it re welding work or do you have to get the kit and what cost would this be to buy and fit.
Thanks again Danny
Thanks again Danny

Boot spot weld
Hello
After reading many posts on the above I am still unsure how to repair and by who? I have two failed welds on left hand side of boot and live in Bolton.
What is the price to repair.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Danny.

engine problem
hi all
i've got a 97' z3 2.8 and at the front on the car under the radiator are two rubber pipes that then attach to a metal square shape pipe which has started to rust. Any ideas as to what the metal pipe is? And are they expensive to renew?
Thanks Danny.

seen alot of topics about having the manifold modified with a 325i was wondering if it makes much difference. If i was to do it i would only have this the remap and an airfilter done i'd leave the exhaust as it is just wondering peoples opinions about whether it's worth doin thanks dan.
