i love it, can these enclosures be bought?

Over the last month the rear near side brake has bee heating up and smoking of its own accord. Car has been with BMW who found no fault. The car is back in with BMW who now say it is the rear calliper that is faulty. But due to a world wide back order of callipers they don't have one for the z3 2.2i...

The time has come, I was in the car and looked down to notice that my knob was a bit old and worn. So i have decided that it is time to replace my illuminated Mtec leather gear knob with something new. Infact the last time my wife drove the car she managed to pull it off when attempting to find the ...

That's my car turned 10. to celebrate 7 years of Z3 ownership I thought a paint job would be a great idea.

Don't seem to be able to add a pic, i am thick!

Icecube

I am going to be getting a new roof for the z'd. Does anyone know if anyone can supply a new roof with a glass screen? Would assume the window would be smaller but i would be interest. Also - where is the best place to get a new roof fitted in Scotland and is there anything i should be aware of? Reg...

Chaps, I am looking for a few new OEM parts for my car which is currently in the paint-shop. Can anyone help with the following parts or recommend where i am best to get them (other than local BMW garage): 1. New front and rear BMW badges 2. New Z3 rear badge 3. New BMW centre caps for alloy wheels ...

Icecube

Well I have gone the full hog based on getting a couple of mirrors painted i thought, what the heck,, lets paint the full car. Went to the paint shop and there was a Lotus in getting worked n. Turns out to be the chap that had MBlurr (John). His z'd looked very impressive so thought these are the ch...

I have PM'd again, if you don't receive it can be reach on my email:

I posted at the weekend looking for a near side mirror for a Z3 but this sounds like an ideal upgrade at just the right moment in time.

1 Very happy member

Icecube

Icecube

Thanks that would be a great help.

Icecube

Went for dinner last night, left the car at the train station, picked the car up this morning to find someone had fallen into my wing mirror and broken the internal alloy-cast frame.

Anyway, need a new one, Sterling Grey would be amazing but any colour will do.

Regard

Colin.

When i put the car into reverse and on full lock there is a knocking noise coming from the steerring and you can feel it in the steering wheel - what is this?

Icecube

Now that there are 3 of us the Z3 is only now being used for the commute to work and we are chumping around in a megane at the weekend... this will just not do but i have had the Z'd for nearly 7 years. So i am thinking of trading my Z3 2.2i sport (Sterling Grey with 58K, just had service 2 done, ne...

Icecube

I have what feels like a flat spot at about 4200rpm in my 2.2. Seems to start to pull strong again about 5500rpm and then all the way through to the limiter.

Icecube

So is that forums recommend tyre? or Proxies?

Icecube

Yip i had a look but don't seem to stock 245/40/17 in the F1 GSD 3

Icecube

Looking for 24/40/17's but can't find them anywhere.. i am in Scotland.

Icecube

Has anyone tried or paid for a waterless car wash? I have been given a waterless car wash kit from a friend who sell them for washing light air craft.

Going to try it on a friends old Volvo 940 on Saturday as it is going in the autotrader.

Icecube

Was having a look through my local Gumtree and stumbled over a Z3 hardtop. Sale has nothing to do with me but just thought i would be a team player as there is no I in team but you can spell me which is much more important.

Used to live in Melrose, you really need to go into Galashiels if you want a night out! Although I can recommend the ship for a pint although it is also known as the ****. The Cruise sounds cracking if you are going you will love it.

Icecube

My washer bottle has somehow detached itself from the bulk head of the car and is now resting on the brake pipes. Any ideas why and how to fix? Would a picture help?

Icecube

When i turn my heater on (hot or cold setting) the fan makes a whining noise. Never used to be there, does anyone know what it is and how to fix it?

Icecube

all views much appreicated. Is there adiy on this site for removing and cleaning the sensor?

Icecube

I really think it is a flat spot. I have had the car for 5 years now and i am sure it did not used to be like this. It is suttle i will say that but at about 4,200 rpm the car for a fraction of a secod seems to loss a bit of power and then it take to about 5,200rpm to come strong again. Don't think ...

Icecube

My 2.2i has a flat spot about 4,200rpm - anyone any idea why and what i should do about it?

Icecube

on my 2.2 the oil light comes on after the ingnition it switched off. The car needs topped up with oil. After a topup the light does not come back on. Not a problem.

Icecube

out of interest how much does a new replacement hood cost?

Icecube

I have used Skidz in Falkirk a few times, the guys are spot on

Icecube

My car seems to be displaying the same issue - have not tried the fix but is there anything else that needs to be considered with the ASC & ABS light coming on?

Does anyone have any pictures of what the senor looks like?

Icecube

I have the pinoneer head unit in my z3, the sound quality is stuning however i am using different speakers and amps.

Just to note that as the Z3 headunit hole is rectangular as such the fitment is not totally perfect. Depends how important this is to you.

Icecube

Is the car being broken into parts? I would be interested in some of the cosmetics, such as the hoops, rear view mirror, side grills and side mirrors.

Icecube

Just Bought 2 F1's 225/45/17's for £85 fitted.

Icecube

I would recommend the DLS Classic 3 channel amp. Will do everything you need for the Z'd, run the sub and the front componets. I have Model 65 and DLS 5.25inch components and i can't rate it highly enough. I have a "chav" system in my work car and to be honest, the z'd more than holds it o...

Icecube

I also seem to have developed the same problem, although it is not everytime and the alarm can start to go off within a couple of minutes. Then you can drive the car home from work and there is no problem at all? Any ideas?

Icecube

Sorry Roger - thats not was i was looking for.

Regards

Colin.

Icecube

The rear storage locker, is it the type that is for a z3 with roll-hoops but does not have the HK bass box. This is where the bass box would normally sit.

I might be interested to have this as a spare.

Regards

Colin.

Icecube

Whats the woofer between the seats in your first pic, how did you go about making the enclosure for that?

Icecube

Bimbeema - Whats the 2.2 like after being chipped?

Icecube

Skinny - Any chance you would share with us a little of the detail about how you built the box, what other members would need to think about if they wanted to attempt their own build? Whats the sound like, is the enclosure big enough to make any reasonable bass? What was the cost of materials and wh...

Icecube

Could this not be a group buy as i would defo be up for one. Not sure how to go about sorting such a thing out.

Icecube

thats funny casue the petrol station where the scheme is running is in Alloa.

Brother in law signed up £100 and has to wait 28 days to access the cheap fuel.

Icecube

Apparently a petrol station about 10 miles form where i live has just opened. It is an membership station...

You pay £100 a year to join. Petrol and Diesel is then 35p a litre with a limit of 50 Litres per week. the Membership covers a car not the driver.

Anyone heard of anything similar?

Icecube

Lovely z3 Coupe in blue spotted every day going up and down Queensferry Road with private plate.

stunning!

Icecube

Will give it a go tomorrow and let you know what happens.

Icecube

Last week i noticed that when i was filling the car with petrol there was a pond of water inside the petrol cap (if you know the space I am talking about). There is a little space where any overfill is collected. Anyway the pond is still there today and has not drained away. Does anyone if there is ...

Icecube

Do make sure that the speakers are actaully being powered by the amp in the headunit and not the amp that is attached to some speaker setup's. You can check this by removing the speaker in the passengers footwell. If it has a crazy concraption attached to it then you could think about bypassing it.

You have a PM

I have the DEH-P77MP that can come with an iPOD adaptor. Try this link.. http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/4045.html The head unit is is retro and suits the z'd really well. Also an excellent head unit if you want to build a "system" as it has a set of 5volt pre-outs. I ...
