Got a starting problem with my 320d and from what I can gather it's the glow plug relay, basically the car starts from cold no problem starts hot no problem but struggles when it's only very slightly warm, i've changed the battery but that's not solved the problem so i've done some research and it looks like the glow plug relay needs replacing, does anyone know where it's located i've looked in the ecu box but can't see anything that looks like it also does anyone know the best place to get one from? cheers.

      E87 Whine on acceleration

      Great advice gents, got a similar type of noise, literally started today, definite cyclic in nature so linked to the belt and pulleys and will try the WD40 first to see if I can isolate the cause of it before moving on.

      Headlight condensation

      I can confirm, no more appearance of any condensation in headlights so this is a worthy fix.

      water pump whistle

      Just started up this morning to be greeted with a real whistle which I think is coming from the water pump. Definite link to the belt as the frequency is clearly aligned with the belt and pulley speed. Is this a sign of water pump on way out or something else. I am guessing water pump, is there anything else I should be looking at to find the culprit. Literally, no sound two days ago and got this rotary whistle this morning. How long have I got?

      Brake Pipe Failure 650i

      Well I have wince heard of an X5 having exactly the same issue. Seems the foam sections used to prevent scratching are acting as contact water reservoirs and corroding the brake pipe which runs nearest to them. Check em out people as normally would not be picked up on MOT. Sounds like a real design flaw that BMW need to get changed and quickly.

      Tyres perishing

      Hi all, the last time I put new tyres on was sept 21 and since then I have done about 3.5 - 4K annual miles. Just had MOT and been informed that the rear tyres are perished and on advisory needing to be replaced after only 7.5k miles. Is anyone else seeing this phenomena of tyres perishing due to low mileage.Seems a new set of tyres are needed each 3 year period due to them perishing!!!.
