Here's a starter for you Daz...

If I purchase my vehicle excise license online (Tax Disc), can I use the vehicle immediately or would I still be liable to a Fixed Penalty for not displaying a valid RFL ?

Does say on the website.. so long as you buy it before the old one expires you can still use the vehicle for upto 5 days after till the new one arrives.

ANPR Cameras mounted to the vehicles can't tell if it is being shown but only what the DVLA report it to be so, you could probably get away wit NOT changing the tax disc un till you get pulled or you live in an area that is controlled for parking. It is an offence to drive without a valid one on display and Caz's findings are a descretional policy :) nice one Caz

      Collision Avoidance System

      Thank you for your response Dave, I have been to BMW Dealer but all they say computer indicates 'no faults' although I had frequent warnings saying system was restricted. They refuse to road test it saying it is dangerous to road test which I dispute as the system should give a visual warning at 8 car lengths and low speeds. I suggested to test it against another BMW with the same system but again they will not. If I have it on the most sensitive setting and get no warnings what is the point of the less sensitive settings. Lots of unanswered questions with this system?

      Engine running weird when hot

      Morning Billy You need a diagnostic session to narrow things down, at 161k I would also carry out a compression test and check fuel delivery and pressure. Your symptoms could be an accumulation of things or as simple as a dying throttle body diagnostics will help Dave

      BMW X1 Fuel sensor failure.

      Hello. If you own or use a BMW with a diesel engine, manufactured since 2006, a faulty fuel line with an integrated temperature sensor is most likely installed in the engine compartment of your car. This sensor becomes unsealed and injects fuel through the electrical wires via the plug, as a result of which the entire installation (harness), controllers (including turbines) and the ECU (computer) are damaged. Failure may occur after approximately 40,000 km. The costs associated with purchasing the above-mentioned parts amount on average to 4000 euro or more + service, but this repair does not solve the problem because the new temperature sensor still has the same defect. Below are some links to videos in which mechanics describe this problem. I have developed an effective protection that prevents fuel from entering despite a faulty sensor, which permanently solves the problem. If you are interested, please contact me by e-mail for more details: [email protected] Product made in Poland YouTube Links: https://youtu.be/5za5VP0wqkQ?si=jR9S4GCRW6gn7XOU https://youtu.be/kVobw7st0H0?si=aS2ZO6ab1jAWgSI- English: https://youtu.be/aR4rDtD7h7c?si=ze-BBAmBhpH7qwrM

      Engine running weird when hot

      Hello everyone, got a 116i m sport n43b20a. Had it for about 3 months and soon after buying noticed a wierd problem. When cold the car would run perfectly, however when warm or stuck in traffic you could feel it become a little bit rough, sort of a banging feel from the engine which you can feel through the car. When doing this, when driving it runs perfectly. However when you attempt to pull away, the car will drop to around 400rpm and pull away a bit bouncy, having to give it more accelerator to prevent it from stalling, whenever in reverse it does this and normally leads to stalling. Over the last 3 months it hasn’t gotten worse but it does the pulling away thing when it is cold now. Had a service >1k miles ago with plugs. Also had it smoke tested and no signs of any leaks. Does anyone have any advice or had a similar story? Cars on 161k Thanks
