A big Thank you to all new members who have signed up to the club in the last few months.

Over the last 30 days we have seen a 50% growth of website traffic and is growing nicely. And considering this is a new club that has grown mainly by recommendation then we can see this club has the potential to grow in to one of the greatest BMW Clubs in the UK.

Please support us by keep popping in and joining in every now and then, we plan to create a some cool events in the future and release some nice features to the club.

Thanks folks!

This is a very public forum as in you dont have to be a member or logged on to view it all including members profiles. Would it be an idea to make some areas private to members only? Stop every Tom, d*ck and Harry being able to snoop through my extreemly helpful and informative posts :lol: I dont think I've made one yet :P

Members meet ups are always good, maybe a camping trip away for the weekend. Get some good pics of the shanagans and post them in the forum.

Meets are good, just need a little more interest...

Great site guys.. I prefer the laid back and extremely friendly atmosphere here (unlike the linear effect from other sites).

How about an online chat system? :rolleyes:

A good start would be using FlashChat

I do apreciate that at this time, not many users would be online at the same time but a "chance" chat could solve problems quicker... Or even create a "coffee room" for much banter !!

Just a thought...

hi Daz

Cheers for the feedback!

I have put some thoght in to chat rooms and the only reason we left this out was because the data in a chat room drops and gets lost (unless you store logs) as forums keeps data which helps us with google.

In a few months when we get a lot more traffic we will try and add one.

I know that I am being premature by asking this, but would you consider me to come on board as a moderator?

I do realise that I am a "Freshman" in this forum, but I have extensive experience (and contacts) in dealing with people and their issues...

I am currently a moderator on ClubPajero and it would be my pleasure to interact with other members whether it be forum or chat related.

My intension is to remain with this site for the long haul...

I am a qualified mechanic having worked on the E34, Mitsubishi Pajero, VW's, Rovers, Fords and, believe it or not, Jensen Interceptors LOL (All my own cars plus others).

My time is free of course !!! Mainly evenings and full weekends...

Pass this round your team.

Just a thought...

Sorry Dabsy,

I was waiting for admin to answer this.

There is a potential mod already in the que, not to sure whats happening with him yet though.

But the way the site is growing, I think we will be looking for more mods sooner than you think.

Hang around and Ill keep you posted.

Send me a PM in a few weeks and I'll have a word with Steve.

How about a "Retro-Fit" section too... Most, if not all, BMW's already have full looms anyway !!!

Hmm, that would make a BMW virtually "Plug 'n Play" B)

Thats Easy... Trip Computers where the wiring IS already there, I promise !! Prise the coin holder or equivelent blankin plate out and plug-in the computer!!

These are separate from dashboard information... Usually in the centre console.

It's when you add TV and the likes when you will need the Modules... But like I said, the wiring is there ! ;)

      Can a VIN decoder really help me check a car’s history?

      Hi David Welcome to the Forum A Vin decoder is a useful tool as it lets you know what was on the original cars build sheet but that only tells you what toys it should have. As its a 2021 car it will have had one MOT which hopefully is clear of any advisories, you can check recall and MOT at www.gov.uk/check-mot-history Next check all tyres are correct and in good condition odd or mismatched tyres can cause havoc with Transfer cases Transmissions and diffs. The rest is History History History plus making sure everything works as it should Good Luck Dave

      Can a VIN decoder really help me check a car’s history?

      Hey everyone, I’m thinking about buying a 2021 BMW X3 and want to make sure I’m covering all my bases before making a decision. I’ve heard about VIN decoders and how they can give you details about a car, but I’m not sure what kind of info they actually provide. Do they show anything useful, like accident history or open recalls? Or are they just for basic specs? If you’ve used one that worked well, I’d love to hear about it and any tips for getting the most out of it. Thanks so much!

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      Hi, Yes The air bag light is on. I have not heard of an emulator? It must be a device to turn the light off? The person that owned this before me was an older lady but maybe she had a mechanic do something to this? Thanks for your help, JayMe
