Evening All, Quick question I noticed earlier that one of my light bulbs has died :( and I pulled my manual out to look at what I need to get - it's my main/dipped/normal light, the manual appears to suggest this as being low beam(?) H7 55 watt bulb - I've just been on to a couple of websites and pu...

77Si

Yes, I was aware about the abilty to control the brightness from the light switch - sounds like it's a connection problem as there is no illumination to the dials at all and when the lights are on, engine off and I open the car door the audible warning doesn't go off. I was just wondering if it was ...

77Si

Rev counter, and speedo all working - no smoking the car so the cigarette lighter shouldnt of triggered it - sounds like its a connection in the light switch then.....

Hi All, Just wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. After just turning over 90k at the weekend, I switched my headlights and all appear to be working - however the dashboard didnt illuminate as normal and stayed in complete darkness :shock: not great - however it was only city d...

77Si

Yes, the passenger side is fine - someone obviously clipped the driver's side whilst parked up - I'm in London with no off street parking

77Si

Blimey, think I am too much of a numpty to attempt that fix! Someone has mentioned a 'indy' who did a silicon or resin fix, which I presume fills the cavity - but then I'd assume that the mirror cant be moved.

For now, I think I'll continue on the hunt for replacements! Thank you though!

77Si

Looks like someone's clipped my drivers side mirror and the aluminum rod has given up the ghost fromthe force..... :( Have tried Quarry Motors, FAB direct, Ebay and not having much success - I know this is an age old problem but any other site recommendations would be gratefully recieved. I've also ...

I recently used the Autoglym 2 stage cleaner and proofer on mine and it's come up a treat - i thoroughly brushed the roof with a soft brush first - it's now clean, and now rain water just beads on it.

77Si

Oh dear!

Hi Vince, my indicators only flash when I lock - not when I unlock, I think it's more a security thing so that if you are being followed no-one would know what car you are approaching - apart from mine makes a quite a racket when it unlocks and draws enough attention to itself!

77Si

Thanks to Renovo Plastic Window Cleaner!! Hd been wanting to tackle the scratched and cloudy screen for ages and finally spent yesterday giving the Zed the TLC he deserved a wash and wax (no clay involved, that will come later I think after reading some of the posts on here) cleaned and re-proofed t...

77Si

Just spent sunday giving the Zed some TLC and the AG kit worked a treat! Just need some rain to bead on the roof as proof!

77Si

My 2001 2.2 Sport is very clunky 1st to 2nd but fine other than that - definitely wouldnt consider selling it because of that, the gearbox does seem to be a common niggling issue to some though.

77Si

Spitting image of mine except you have the chrome gills and door handles which are on my shopping list! Very nice! Good choice of colour too!

77Si

G'day down under - thanks for letting us have some warmth up here :D Managed to get some sun and warmth with the top down earlier - as for the beanies with visors..... google them - we seem to have plenty over here from the surfing contingents! http://www.surfdome.com/quiksilver_beanies_-_quiksilver...

77Si

love the wheels, same as mine - did you split the rims and have the centres refurbed in anthracite? Had my rears refurbed if I'd seen this finish before I think I might of opted for that! Very nice!

77Si

Thanks guys, very useful - I have looked at some DAB's but not spotted a quality one with bluetooth capabilities. Ill look into the Alpine heads.

77Si

Morning All, Am wanting to replace the head unit in the Zed for a new unit, and I miss the Bluetooth BMW system of my previous E92 and am considering getting a head unit with Bluetooth capability - but wondering whether it's actually worth it given the road/wind noise - does it interfere with phone ...

77Si

Hi Guys, unfortunately we cant make this event, but I drove a chunk of the route at the weekend - unfortunately there were road works on the A149 outside Heacham down to 20mph and loose chippings all over the place and then just passed the turn off for the crazy golf course at Old Hunstanton through...

77Si

Doesnt look like a 2003 to me either - unless they opted to go back to the orange lights front n rear

77Si

Uh oh..... was it pricey? My emissions light popped up a couple of weekends ago but havent used the car since - hoping whatever it is will be covered by the warranty!

77Si

Mines got a new MoT so a bit concerned!! It's a 2.2 and the exhaust sounded sweet as, I hadnt noticed and idling issues and I am afraid to say it was pulling well on the motorway.......

77Si

What was the outcome? I was driving yesterday when mine came on and it's stayed on. I don't appear to have any issues idling and can't confirm the fuel economy as I have only had the car 2 weeks - i have a warranty from
The dealer and am just wondering what the actual issue is? Any suggestions?

77Si

there was no where else to park at the garage after the test drive in pics 1 & 2

77Si

how did you kow?

yes yes yes, it drives beautifully and the sound is awesome!

77Si

Sorry gang, it's taken a while to get around to uploading but here he is, pre & post reg change http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff420/77si/photo.jpg http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff420/77si/photo.jpg http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff420/77si/photo-3.jpg http://i1234.photobucket.co...

One more sleep!!!

77Si

Baseball cap in the glove box and a sparkly box cover for the kleenex on the parcel shelf then...... Me thinks not! At least I have leather seats for easy bird poop wipe clean.......

77Si

I'm used to getting wet when having it off.....

Ive had a mk2 and a mk3 mx-5 which obviously don't go as fast as a 2.2 z3 and often got caught short - and without the joys of an electric hood!

77Si

Finally picking him up on Saturday!!! Cannot wait, but the blasted forecast looks like rain!

77Si

Hi Cozzy just spotted this 2.8 on Ebay - no reserve!

Just spotted this cheapy on Ebay........ http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1999-BMW-Z3-BLUE- ... 3cb475c346

77Si

Oh VERY Nice - isnt it the Cosmos Black special edition? I've spotted a few of these for sale whilst I've been hunting mine down but they've been out of my price range

77Si

Hugely jealous!

Not picking my 2.2 Sport up until the 5th of Feb! Grr

77Si

I know, I sold my last car in November thro lack of use and wanted a fun toy found one that fits the bill and now I have to wait for it partially my own fault for having a pp put on and road tax at £245 the thieving robbing b@$t@rds so I want a full months worth of that thanking you! Picking it up o...

77Si

Thanks guys, looks like there is a new member amongst you in a Titan silver 2.2 sport then - mine in a couple of weeks

77Si

the only primer will be for the spots of corrosion!! How rude!

I can see colour is a contentious subject then!

77Si

Well what's left or the receding hairline is getting silver flecks anyhoo

So may as well coordinate for when the hoods down!

77Si

Ok, so fallen in love with a 2001 2.2 sport in titan silver, 80k full service history all BMW dealers bar the last two which were an Independant dealer your list was invaluable of what to look for - downside it has the 17" split rims the rears of which need refurbing which try will do for me fo...

77Si

Great! Thanks Gaz!

77Si

ok, my next dumb @r$£ question; Spare wheel/tyre?! Just realised I havent spotted the location of this..... assuming there is one? I know some bmws run on run flats but do z3's?

Thanks!

I'll shut up for now.......

77Si

Well that was why I asked the question! I didnt know if there was something else behind it, which there could be based on Titan's response.

Those particular two are ruled out for now as I'm seeing two others this weekend, I just wanted some in the know knowledge in the first instance.

77Si

Thanks doesnt look like a HK affair from the pics. Nevermind.

My head will definitely be in the boot checking out the boot welds for sure tho!

77Si

Thanks Titan, I've ruled those two out for now, I'll see what the two I have to look at this weekend offer.... I know these are in the right place! Just one other question off of the options list, one model I am looking at is the 2.2i Sport looks like it has the standard cassette player with cd chan...

77Si

Great thanks! The two in question with the dodgy looking badging are these below both face or should it be bumlift models; http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201046373144274/sort/priceasc/usedcars/colour/silver/engine-size-cars/3l_to_3-9l/model/z3/make/bmw/radius/1501/page/1/postcode/sw32...

Albeit I am Z less at the moment - currently window shopping but hopefully looking and test driving this weekend. Just wanted to thank you guys for some of the posts on what to look for when purchasing which has been so valuable. Other than a '54 plate Mini Cooper that was a little modified I have n...
