Fuel Pump Parts ID please
Hi everyone I have just removed an E30 external fuel pump and I cannot id the attached parts (see photo) I think one is a regulator and the other is maybe a filter or accumulator? I checked the haynes manual and the on line parts page but I couldn't find a reference to them!! So any help would be welcome -

Morning Bob Welcome to the Forum Ouch, I would begin by checking www.realoem.com (if you don't know about it already it is an online BMW parts list as used by dealers) put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box it will bring up your model then search for what you need. Once you have the part number then Google the part to get the best price/delivery I hope this helps Dave -

Exhaust gasses in an X3
Morning Kevin Welcome to the Forum No an Exhaust smell in the cabin is just not right You say the EGR cooler was replaced at a BMW Dealer do you know if this was a Recall or Warranty work ? I have read of issues where the EGR to exhaust gasket was missed it isn't difficult to check yourself if you are that way inclined (Picture Attached) if not phone a friend 😅 the gasket (compression type) should go between the shiny bit on the right and the rusty bit on the left. I hope this helps Dave PS The picture shows one with the gasket missing -

Exhaust gasses in an X3
Good morning Bimmers. I have just (a week) bought an 2015 X3 diesel auto that has done 82,000 miles, and I have noticed a smell of exhaust fumes in the cab, particularly on starting from cold, but also throughout the ride. During relatively short journeys, I can taste the fumes on my lips and yesterday, as I drove 20-30 miles, I started to feel my eyes becoming 'sore and prickly'. It's not major, but is definitely there. Looking at the excellent service history, a 'Exhaust gas recirculation cooler' was replace a month ago by a local BMW dealership. I am not 'Technical' but this is worrying me. Do you guys (gals) have any thoughts please, apart from warning a gas mask? The dealer appears sympathetic, and has asked me to 'drop in' so that he can assess the situation, (but cannot fit in any work for 3 weeks!) but I want to be aware of any points you think I should know? Forewarned is forearmed! -

I was replacing the alternator bolt on my 2000 323ci and overtightened it resulting in a partially broken base for the alt and power steering...... Where on earth can I get a replacement for this? Thanks, Bob
