Hi,

Just sold my B7 RS4 and now back in the BMW family.

Got myself a mint 08 reg 325i coupe M Sport auto, 2 prev owners, only 43k with full BMWMDSH in Le Mans Blue with the light grey leather interior and have got to say, I LOVE it.

Took me over 6 months to find this car !!

Looking around the car I was disappointed to see the horrible grey brake callipers, rang my local BMW dealer asking about covers, but they don't stock them.

Has anyone fitted them, had them on a while and had no problems with them ?

If so could you give the details of the supplier etc.

I KNOW it could affect the performance of the brakes but I'm not going to be tracking it or driving it like a 17yr old chav, I just think some black covers with say the BMW 'M' logo on would be a vast improvement.

Any comments, good or bad, along with any photos, would be appreciated.

Cheers

      2009 x5 xdrive 3.0d gear selection problem

      Hi I have a couple of problems with my 2009 x5 xdrive. 3.0d first of all. Should I be able to select neutral with the ignition on with engine but not started. Secondly, since I’ve been unable to select different gears or neutral I cannot get my car to start. I’ve changed fuel pump relay as not getting any fuel to fuel rail. Are used to be able to select a neutral with the engine off with this now stop the car starting

      Sorry Stu, should have said I'm fairly tech savvy.

      Copy Ignition Key?

      Thanks Dave & Stu, this is a big help, thanks. I have the original key which starts the car. The locking doesn't work, but I'm not bothered. I took it to a copy shop. The guy couldn't get a reading from the transponder. (That's the immobiliser, right?) So I said to him to make me a copy anyway. 25 quid. The copy operates the doors and the ignition but not the starter. So I now have a key with a transponder chip *SEE PHOTO* (I assume the red bit) and I need to copy the code from the original key and copy it into the new one. I did see a thing online but I don't know if it'll copy. https://www.amazon.es/-/en/gp/product/B0DY7VCTQZ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A18I26BYARIXXP&psc=1

      2008 530d e61 M sport manual gearbox

      hi Dave, I had a look there and if its there I couldn't find it, the only other place it seems to suggest is to do with the BC button on the indicator lever but I have tried that as well and no joy, it may be that there is some sort of procedure which has to be followed in the right order but until now I am at a loss. cheers Paneuro.
