Good evening.

Not proud of it but killed my 3.0 Omega MV6 on a roundabout a couple of weeks ago, cat B write off so thought I would finally treat myself to a BMW.

Ive bought a 2000 330 ci in black, with leather seats. No tv tho.

I've always liked the forums and I'm sure this one is just as good but oddly enough my insurers are asking that I am a member of an owners club, got to be on!

Anyway nice to meet you all.

Mike

I nearly bought an Omega, but common sense prevailed :P :lol:

Well I've picked her up now and well impressed! 90 mile trip back up the M5 and sweet as a nut! Sounded a bit ratley from the outside so hope that isnt something too sinister, sounds perfectly fine from the inside!

It has no front armrest and never seems to have had one! I assume that must have been an option, but not my choice - I assume I will be able to retro fit if I can find a colour match!?

Too dark for photos now.

Good man... There will be an armrest for your car, and it will be an easy, straight fitment, so no worries there mate...

Find that rattle ;)

330ci = goodnessbiggrin.gif

Welcome

Ive only had her a couple of weeks but I have to agree - pure goodness. Still looks the part as well, 11 years on. Need to put a front armrest in and maybe a partial window tint and my motoring life will be complete!

      105C thermostat replacement

      As I understand the wiring diagrams and operation Item 9 on the thermostat housing is the sensor which sends its signal to the ECU for interpretation with information from the map sensor. Information from item 12 (1st drawing ) is also used to provide average temp across the cooling system. As far as I am aware the Thermostst is independent of the sensors and operated by expanding wax material internally

      BMW 318i boot locked can’t get into

      Errr not clear here Donald Plastic "L's" with short rubber hoses ??? Distilled water/Ionised water should only be used in an old style lead acid battery. The Rad and engine coolining system should be filled with the correct coolant mix to prevent cavitation and the danger of freezing in low temps. Coolant should be part of the cars regular maintenance and changed every 3 years or so. At that time all hoses and connectors should be inspected and changed where necessary to keep everything in tip top condition. Changing parts can cause as many problems as you may think your solving

      BMW 318i boot locked can’t get into

      Update: I checked my battery and it charged in 5 minutes, so I don't have to find another alternator. All seems to be OK except for the plastic "L"s with a short rubber hose that bypass the HV/AC solenoid. Those get clogged after @ 150,000-190,000 miles (if distilled water wasn't used) and cause air pockets that try to burst radiators. I have a few more brass "L"s, so now I can throw the plastic ones away. I have to be careful I don't fog the windows though, without heat or cool.

      105C thermostat replacement

      You are absolutely right. The strange thing is that when I put the chassis number on the realoem it shows that the temp sensor is not applicable on my vehicle. I will physically check for a sensor. In the meantime, do you think that the removal of the MAP activated thermostat will effect the temp gauge on the dial instrument item 6? I am tempted to add a dummy resistor , 11.5ohms - 13watts , to simulate the MAP thermostat. Your thoughts?
