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 ! ;)

      Rough idle problem

      Looking for some help. 2010 116i M sport with the 2.0na engine. When cold, car ticks over perfectly. After about 15 mins of driving when idling you can feel it getting a little bit rough. Nothing too bad, but the longer you idle the worse it gets. No EML. When running car runs perfectly not a flicker. Today left it idling for 10mins after I felt it and then revs started to fluctuate but still no eml. OBD scanner can’t pick anything up. Turned it off and back on and was still rough but only a little bit like when it just starts. Anyone had anything similar or can point me in a direction of where I should start looking?
