Morning Helder

Welcome to the Forum

The ZF transmission in your car should be serviced every 80 to 100,000 kilometers BMW in their wisdom state "sealed for life" 

So how many miles/kilometers  has your car covered? and when if ever has the gearbox been serviced ?

I would start by finding either a ZF service centre or ZF agent near you they will be able to plug in and diagnose the issue accurately. Often a flush and change  of trans fluid and filters with a software update will be enough. 

Obviously to change a torque converter is a box out job which is much more costly

Good luck

Dave

      Steering wheel replacement

      Morning Connah Welcome to the Forum Not sure what you are trying to achieve here ? If your OEM steering wheel has paddle shifts it should be fairly straight forward swap even though the replacement will probably be Aftermarket. Just make sure you can get support from the seller and they accept returns if it didn't fit If you don't have paddle shifts there is the small issue of how you can get the shift to work, it will involve loom extensions and programming at least. If you just want the competition look and are not worried about the operation then it becomes easier Good Luck Dave

      F30 A-pillar install

      Morning Shawn Other than checking www.realoem.com and the Internet for help, it's not a job I have done but that would be my starting point. Perseverance, patience and practice may help as well 😅 plastic clips are easy to break if they are not spot on with alignment. I buy spares before starting any job that involves taking trim off, try trial fitting the clips off the car gives an idea of alignment and pressure needed I have used a little Washing up liquid as lubricant Good Luck Dave

      F30 A-pillar install

      I removed the driver’s side a-pillar in my 2013 320i to make sure the sunroof drainage tubes weren’t leaking behind them. As easy as they are to get off, what a pain to put back on. I ordered new plastic retainers because both broke. Does anyone have any pointers for getting it back on? I fought with it for an hour with no luck whatsoever.
