Cd changer not recognised

Hi, I have the business tape unit and like the nostalgia of playing my old tapes. I also have the CD changer in the boot, but when I switch the source over on the head unit, nothing is there, it's not recognised. I know both are original to the car. Any ideas what I can check please? I'd like to kee...

Re: Wanted: low mileage, full service history z3/z4 (minter!

I had my first Z3 (1.9) and found it under powered, I did quite a bit of work on renewing shocks, bushes etc and loved the car but the lack of power started to bother me. I swapped it for 3.0 Z4 and didn't like it at all. I kept it only a few weeks. To me the 4 was boring after the character and aes...

Re: Help please.

Good info about the canister. Thanks.

Regarding the braid, I've now seen it on a few engine photos, so it's a very common upgrade or factory. Either way, it seems the only difference.

Re: Engine bay paint

Hi all, engine paint is sorted. Apparently it's Goosewing Grey.

Local paint guy knew it and mixed 3 rattle cans and a touch up pot and it matches perfectly.

Car outer is Titan Silver.

Does anyone know the paint name or code for the engine bay on a 2001 Sport.
It looks an off-White colour.

I need to match it after doing some rust prevention work.

3.0 wanted (maybe)

After selling the Z3 for a Z4 and then a Boxster S, I may be yearning for a nice, well loved 3.0 with most options ticked for sensible money. Excellent service history BM or specialist backed up by a wad of receipts is favoured.

Any one thinking of selling?

I had the same problem. After a quick search on ebay I found the clips and some coated metal brackets that fit on the trim. I did need to sew the new bracket on but the overall cost was less than a tenner and is a nice strong solution.
