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 x1 2012 won't start

      Morning Marvin You need a Diagnostic Scan with a BMW capable system , I assume that when the Footwell control module and and Battery were replaced they were correctly registered to your chassis ? Has your Mechanic checked the starter solenoid ? much cheaper than a starter Hope this helps Dave

      BMW 318i boot locked can’t get into

      As an "Old Bloke" (big 80 has been and gone) I just dont see cutting corners as saving money ?? over a very long driving life I have owned many many cars I have always maintained my own cars (mix of maintaining Dealer Warranty and self). At one point when in business my cars were changed on a mileage basis but after retirement did I want to spend £50k+ on a new car, NO! so My BMW X5 4.6is and may wifes Subaru Outback 3.0 (2003 and 2004) were the last. The X5 and the Subaru are still going strong both around 160k and maintained by me in my Home Garage everything on both cars works as it should (as an aside both cars have had engine upgrades and give 400+whp) both cars are and have been 100% reliable. As the 4.6is is quite rare in the UK 3 years ago I brought a cheap 3.0d X5 and after fixing the bodges I have a reliable and economical X5 to tow with and stop the mileage building on the 4.6 Wrong coolant can do as much damage as no coolant as can a stuck or no thermostat (longer warm up times using more fuel) I agree with using recycled parts to save money just never Tyres Brakes or Suspension parts they are all that is between you and a ditch Dave
