Don't wish to sound silly, but do you tilt up the front of the roof to pull it back, after you have released the two locking levers - it's not immediately obvious you need to do that When you do put it back I also sort of chop the back window with my arm, so it folds nicely without creasing

Hi
I'm local, so should be OK to attend
Cheers

Just looked at the pictures, you can't sell it, its lovely

I'll get the seat out again and check the connectors for damage an obvious faults. The wiring harness change sounds like quite a major fix, or is it just a short section? The bypass fits into the car side of the harness, breaking the link between the seat and car, and is a male fitting into a female...

It does have an airbag, and it has been reset using the plug in diagnotic kit that identifies the fault code, and displays as a message on the screen what the fault is. If you then reset it using the same kit, the fault, goes off the screen and the airbag light goes out, but it only stays off for a ...

A while ago I took out my perfectly functioning cloth interior on my 1998 1.9, and fitted a leather one. The airbag light came on, and the diagnostic machine indicated it was the passenger occupancy mat. Unfortunately I did'nt try and get it reset before I sold my old interior. I've since tried anot...

Hi
I've used Renovo and found it really good, I'd recommend it
Cheers

I'll have it, if you've still got it
Thanks

Good decision - I've looked long and hard at Z4's and mulled it over several times, they are lovely, but the Z3 stands out and is just fun

Just seen this and would be happy to attend - went last year and really enjoyed it

Thanks guys - looking at the prices, I think mine will be going back on!

I'm having a new windscreen in my car next Saturday as mine has cracked. I thought I would take the opportunity to replace the driving mirror with something a little smaller, as the standard one is distractingly large in left handers sometimes, and I end up ducking and moving in the seat to look aro...

Welcome and enjoy. I'm near Desford, so this looks like a bit of a 'hot spot!'
Cheers

Whew - glad it's not just me who gets mixed up and panics!

If the power isn't an issue, the 2.0 for me is a classy looking thing that's been looked after. Top down, sunny evening, I'd be really proud of that.
The black one doesn't look special or cared for from the pictures, I'd lookat a couple of other 6's before buying that

I managed to get my softop cover on that I got off Buztops, as in one of the threads in here. My car looks much like the one in the picture, and my roofs bit aged, so I think that's got to help and makes me feel a bit easier for the £60 it cost

"They are cheap, fun and seemingly well built little sports cars, but I'm under no illusion that there are better cars out there, but circumstances meant that for me it seemed a good compromise. Which brings me back to my previous post: Instead of trying to change the opinions of others, just ...

The new one looks lovely, the colour really makes it. What are your thoughts so far compared with the Z3, driving and power wise?
Cheers

One of the guys has done it with a Solus machine we have at work that plugs into the diagnostic port. It identifies the fault and allows you to reset it, but as above with it coming back on when you do that
Thanks

The right thing to do,I just got £65ish for mine plus postage

Hi I recently fitted a leather interior to my Z3, and all has gone well except with the new passenger seat the airbag light is showing, which wasn't a problem with my old seat. I have tried a seat occupancy bypass sensor from the usual auction website, and have found that with it fitted, the light g...

Just brought one - good quality, fits well, and arrived in two days. Had to be out for 08:30 this morning, and just lifted it off with the heavy frost we had still attached - bliss
Really impressed so far

All

Item numbers are:

Tonneau cover 130789312728
Cheers

Just brought a new interior, and notice on the door cards, that on that and on mine still fitted, that the cloth in the speaker covers is torn and flakey, almost like tissue paper. Can't be seen that much so not a big issue, but while I have the chane to sort it I will. My thoughts are to use some s...

Thanks guys
Just brought one and didn't see yours, wish I had, mines good but was £50 more - seem to go for about £180 private and £250 trade ebay, so worth putting there
Cheers

I'd be careful. A friend of mine who was a bit careful with his cash, brought a Z3m and then a Porsche a few years ago, both Cat D damaged repairs, and neither ever looked quite right (from certain angles in different lights, with the paint and body lines) and the Porsche was nothing like it should ...

I'm looking to get a leather interior (seats and door cards) for my 1998 Z3 1.9, and am of course looking on ebay amongst other places I like the earlier style seats best, so am looking at the interiors that seem to go up to bout 2002. I hoping someone can tell me what year models will fit into my c...

Had a great day today. Thanks to anybody on here who put their car out to look at, nothing like a line up to decide what you want to do to your own

Thanks guys. Managed to reset the radio and start again, and seems much better so far
Cheers

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine
I agree, keep it standard - there are some vehicles - the Z3 is one, that look just right as they are. Once everything works properly, spend the money on fuel

Hi I've got a 98 1.9 Z3 with a fairly modern Sony Radio fitted, and have found that when I try and tune the radio in, it picks up different channels depending on where I am, sometimes picking up the ones on the presets, on the preset, but not the same channels (sometimes any channels!) when you hit ...

On the window problem, when I brought mine, both the windows were stop and start from lack of use (no clunks though!) I sprayed 'Halfords Silicone Lubricant' on both sides of the glass at the door seal, and left them a couple of days, then started to use the windows regularly when I use the car. It ...

They look good, suit the car
