Greeting all,

From a Very VERY windy Isle of Man,yes today bless with gail force winds large waves crash over the banks.reading though the Classc Car Weekly bit regarding the 8 series(a future purchase) has prompted me to the forum.the current “collection” Stands as the following

97 BMW 523 I Se, done well over 300k now, 280k of them being done by me! Faithful Purple servent……crap in the snow!

97 BMW 740I which seems to enjoy NOT working at the moment

99 BMW e36 318i Cabby, 26k and is like new in every way,including the battery drain which cannot be traced!

1986 BMW 320 4 door which snap its cam belt on christmas day(currently having the head rebuilt)

Non BMW wise a 1982 Morgan and a 1984 Range Rover.

Needless to say im quite keen on the old german machines,

BigAl, Wind doesn’t blow in the Pub, biggest problem is when the ferry gets cancelled, I should have been in England this week but sadly it’s a no go!

Fear not, I can do beer, wine and champagne. I like to say I am flexible to my surroundings.

Now to work out how to pay this BMW owners club!

      Low Oil Pressure Light on E90

      ***OIL PRESSURE WARNING SOLVED***BMW E90 with same issue. Intermittent Oil Pressure Warning light for around a year. No performance issues or strange noises.Started when slowing down coming off highway and then progressed to when driving around town as well.Tried a can of Wynn's Super Charge Oil Treatment and after a few days light stopped coming on around town but still after highway driving. Bought another can and poured that in and six months later no warning lights. Guessing will have to do this again after next oil change but so far so good. Car running and sounding better also.

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      Hi Jay You will need a Diagnostic Program to turn off an Airbag light if someone has triggered the light that could also be the issue Dave

      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
