Hi you BMW people

Reason I have joined is that I'm thinking of a 535D touring prob on a 55 - 57 plate.

I understand there is a change at 07 and would love any good or bad remarks about them.

I haven't owned a BMW for some years now but have owned the old 528 and 535 saloons and since then a Lexus and currently the Volvo T5 estate.

My son works at garage and has driven the 535d and says they are quick. He's had a dozen or more M3's and rates BMW quite highly.

Cheers and look forward to any replies.

Hi and welcome. I think your right re no-one having a 335d. I have not driven one but what I can say is I have had my X5 with the 3.0d engine for 2 weeks now and I am really delighted with the performance. In previous posts you will see that I have never been a fan of either diesel or autogearboxes but the X5 has changed that.

My engine has been chipped but given that it's an 02 and you are looking at much more recent models I would think they would fly!!

Good luck with your purchase

cheers crofter

Glad you like yours.

      X3 2.0 automatic

      hi , I had very similar problem a while back, and after a lot of testing with vista, it turned out to be a front R/H wheel , speed/wheel sensor. when it all was happing lots of codes were coming up gearbox, diff front and back, transever box,plus many more, didn't look good, but there was one code that repeatedly came up at the top of the list, at this point it was becoming undriveable ,it just didn't seem that a wheel sensor could cause all these codes. So I went got two wheel speed sensor, replaced driver side front, the problem never came back, the sensor controls so many systems ,cleared all codes, happy days, I could have pulled the car apart for nothing, and got nowhere, except an empty wallet. hope this helps you or someone.

      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
