Hi

I have some scratches on my X5 rims and want to try and repair myself. Can anyone please tell me the paint code to match the silver of the rims?? Same style as the ones in this picture.

 

Many thanks!

Welcome to the Forum CamR75

Take a lot at one of the Online BMW Vin decoders that will give you the build sheet including the wheels and colour. Take care I remember reading somewhere that all the wheels are finished using a Wurth paint system and often other makes dont match to well.

Thanks Dave, all I can find from that is the type of wheel being: BMW LA Wheel, M Double Spoke 333 and when googled it says its a Gloss-turned light alloy rim. No mention of the actual colour to repaint unfortunately.

Hi Cameron

If it says "turned" are they machine finish with a lacquer to protect them maybe. Have you talked to a wheel refinisher?

      hairline crack in coolant reservoir

      Morning Paul Unfortunately BMW as did many other manufacturers started fitting plastic parts not just externally but also internally and with many heat cycles they become brittle as they age I have seen the the Header tank on a friends Mercedes his was just under the cap around the neck so only showed when the engine was really hot. When I rebuilt the 4.6 (plastic chain guides Failed) I found several coolant "O" rings in the coolant system were starting to weep. BMW wanted to sell complete hose assemblies but many of the parts I sourced were from the USA (Dinan) new Cams,Throttle body gasket sets amonst them were a set of Viton Coolant system "O" rings worth checking those as well. Good Find Dave

      hairline crack in coolant reservoir

      HI all, having previously reported on the hairline crack in the oil filter plastic cup holder that resulted in massive and sudden oil loss albeit at low speed with a cold engine which thankfully didn't result in a lost engine, I have again experienced the same issue but this time in the coolant reservoir. Looks like the same kind of plastic material but I could not testify to that, however I knew I was losing coolant slowly and on closer inspection the garage has determined a hairline crack in the plastic reservoir vessel. The car is 19 years old this year but you don't expect such structures to fail in my case with with two, oil filter holder and now the coolant reservoir it does look like the these plastic parts are suffering under pressure cycles for sure. Does any one else have any similar experience, as I cannot see any other contributor to such failures, no sunlight exposure, no impacts, just pressure cycles? Looking forward to the experience share.

      BMW 3 Series M Sport Steering Wheel Question?

      Morning Anthony Welcome to the Forum As long as you realise that if the new wheel has function controls for items not fitted to your car it wont add them (paddle shift as an example). Be careful removing the Airbag (make sure the Battery is disconnected) then as long as the fixings and clock spring are the same it should fit OK Dave If it does need registering it isn't a complicated
