Treated it to a new (second hand) horn after one packed up.

Just a heads up....if you Youtube this job it says take the bumper completely off. You dont need to at all. Take the wing lower shields off & with a decent extension on a 10mm socket you can do this job.

Is it just me that updates this??😂

My 268,000m Touring needed a Drivers window regulator,Quite easy to fit.  New bonnet cables & catches as the catches had rusted up & guides had broken which snapped the cable.  A new radiator as the Hella radiator lasted 5 years before going banana shaped,didnt leak though. Trying a Nissin one this time. Bonnet catches were from a tat yard so was the window reg. cheap fixes just time consuming.

Can't go very far at the moment due to this nasty virus so on Friday, took off the Winter wheels and tyres and put back the original Summer ones which are so much nicer to look at.

Gave the whole car a very thorough wash and polish using AutoGlym Rapid Aqua Wax. She's sparkling now !

Today pressure washed the winter set ready for them to go into storage in the pit in my garage for the next 7/8 months.

Stay Safe everyone.

First repair to my new (to me) 335xI.  Side turn signal assembly had a broken clip when I purchased her.  Bought a new assembly for $20.  Simple plug/clip/play replacement.  New assembly working!

      BMW 318i boot locked can’t get into

      Update: I checked my battery and it charged in 5 minutes, so I don't have to find another alternator. All seems to be OK except for the plastic "L"s with a short rubber hose that bypass the HV/AC solenoid. Those get clogged after @ 150,000-190,000 miles (if distilled water wasn't used) and cause air pockets that try to burst radiators. I have a few more brass "L"s, so now I can throw the plastic ones away. I have to be careful I don't fog the windows though, without heat or cool.

      105C thermostat replacement

      You are absolutely right. The strange thing is that when I put the chassis number on the realoem it shows that the temp sensor is not applicable on my vehicle. I will physically check for a sensor. In the meantime, do you think that the removal of the MAP activated thermostat will effect the temp gauge on the dial instrument item 6? I am tempted to add a dummy resistor , 11.5ohms - 13watts , to simulate the MAP thermostat. Your thoughts?

      SLIPPING CLUTCH

      Morning Andrew I normally disconnect the Neg lead only, some folks disconnect both a few even say disconnect both and touch them together. Goes without saying both sensor plugs need to be checked and a squirt of contact cleaner applied never hurts 😅 Dave

      SLIPPING CLUTCH

      Hi Dave, I fitted one of the sensors on the rear but it has made no effect as the light is still there, I will fit the other sensor tomorrow and see how it goes then. You mention the disconnect the battery, is there any pattern to this ? is it both leads or just the negative lead? cheers Paneuro.
