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!!!.

      BMW X1 valve cover gasket replacement

      Hi Asif Welcome to the Forum First check to find out where the smoke is coming from, once your sure then make a decision on whether you can (a) DIY or (b) pay a garage. If it is the Garage route then an Internet search for BMW Specialists (there is a Register of BMW Specialists) should bring up a couple at least who are not to far from you. Then talk to them about costs etc Good luck Dave

      Hi Tomy Welcome to the Forum When I rebuilt my E53 4.6is I rebuilt the Vanos system from memory the cost was around £65 for all seals and O rings which turned out to be Febi items So are the prices you have for a rebuild kit or a refurbed Vanos ? Dave

      650i VANOS failure

      Hi everyone, my BMW is due for a VANOS replacement and I’ve found two options with a big price gap: Febi Bilstein (265.19€) - https://onlydrive.pro/parts/camshaft...bilstein-46508 Maxgear (91.29€) - https://onlydrive.pro/parts/gear-spr...axgear-54-1505 Has anyone here used either of these? How do they compare in terms of durability, fitment, and noise after installation? Is the premium for Febi Bilstein worth it, or does Maxgear hold up fine in real-world use?

      BMW X1 valve cover gasket replacement

      Hi there all. I recently bought a bmw x1 xdrive 2014. There is smoke entering through the heater vents. Looking online ppl suggested replacing head cover and gasket. Has anyone done it? Is there anyone in Birmingham who can do it? Thank you

      2017 430d LED headlight beam adjustment for continental.

      Thanks for reply. It’s similar to what I’ve read elsewhere then. I parked the car facing a wall, not sure if it’s just me, but there’s a slight kick in the beam pattern towards the nearside. Think I’ll chance it. Many other people claim they don’t bother with any beam deflectors.
