hi all,

Firstly, "start a topic" doesnt sound like "ask a question" so apologies if I am not following rules and kindly point me in the right direction...

I have recently bought a AUC 5 series M sport 520D and was assured by the BMW main dealer that it had the higher BHP engine (177) in it (this was one of my pre-requisites) but my insurance details are suggesting it might not be.

If anyone can advise how I can confirm this without cost (other than going back to the main dealer - forearmed is forewarned, and all that) I would very much appreciate it.

Regards,

Den.

Thanks Gav...some useful info here but unfurtunately it doesnt help me...it advises the BHP changed during 2007 (actually around sept) but it doesnt say categorically which cars would have the higher HP or how I could tell by looking at something on my car...presumably the V5 will have it on it somewhere but I havent received this from DVLA yet since purchasing the car.

I put a link to the exact car 3 posts up on Parkers website lol

Thanks Greeney - this still only tells me what each model has...it doesnt tell me which model I have.

I've received my V5 now and its not on there either - doh!

      Lower window molding

      Morning Shawn Take a look at www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box, it will call up your model then search the Body and Trim sections You should find what you need there, once you have the part and it's part number then you can search for the best price for a replacement Dave

      Lower window molding

      Can you guys tell me the best place to order a lower window cowl molding for a 2013 BMW 320i? Mine is super dry rotted and I’m getting water in my driver’s side floor board. I checked the sunroof water tubes and they seem to work well. I also ran water on the outside of drivers door to see if it was the door vapor barrier but didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. The cowl is the only obvious thing that looks bad.

      E64 New Mats - Recommendation Needed

      Hi Paul Carpets are a "Touch and Feel" purchase in my mind for my wife's Subaru I had a local Carpet fitter make up a set. He did a great job all edges taped and stitched and the non slip pads on the back he was able to get the car mats out of off cuts (Contract quality Wilton in Beige). He charged around half the cost of Subaru direct might be worth tracking down a fitter and asking Another thought are Guys like Quarry Motors but again you would be buying unseen but at least they know what OEM BMW mats are.

      Can anyone advise on best place to obtain new full pile replacement mats for my E64. Just had a bad experience on ebay so they are going back, totally missold. Just need a nice set in black with the velcro pads already fitted as per BMW spec.
