Get the front end of the car up in the air when bleeding your I6. You can test the duo valve with a multimeter quite easily so give that a butchers.

You can get a chemical to run through the system for a couple of miles to get the crap out of the matrix. If your previous engine went pop, I can only imagine the gunk in the matrix is clogging it.

Keep us posted and get some pics up here! Well done

      New Car New Questions

      Hi guys, newbie to the forum, but just purchased a lovely 2007 530i and had a few questions I was hoping you might be able to help with: 1. with new struts, will the boot fully open when unlocking with the key? I have small kids and that would be a huge benefit, but don't want to invest if not possible. 2. the large panoramic sunroof tilts but doesn't go back, is it worth trying to fix yourself, or better to let a specialist look at it? Assume it's the motor, but not sure how big a job that is. 3. I have a service light for the rear right reverse light, I changed the bulb, light remained on, then I realised if I open the boot with the engine running 3 further issues present themselves (left number plate light, right number plate light, right rear fog light) - assume this is due to dodgy wiring, but can't find where the wiring runs - any help greatly appreciated. Really appreciate any help with these, cheers.

      Faulty drivers door handle

      Hi Stuart Welcome to the Forum If you aren't aware take a look at www.realoem.com it is a BMW online parts list put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box it will call up your model then look in the Trim section You should find small exploded drawings that will give you an idea of how things fit together. My guess would be either something like a broken clip or something loose. Good Luck Dave

      Faulty drivers door handle

      Hi I wonder if anyone has encountered the problem iam having with my drivers external door handle. When I pull it to open the door it seems to slide towards the lock housing and if I'm not careful it jumps off the mechanism. Any ideas please ? It's a 2018 bmw 5 door Thanks 👍🏻

      Use of an Airtag or Similar on the Key FOB ?

      Has anyone put an Airtag or Tile on their key fob? Seeing some mixed comments elsewhere about them causing some type of interference issue and draining the FOB battery.

      Tyres..what's the best alternative to run flats

      Thanks for the feedback Dave, really helpful stuff. I bet your friends and family are pleased you are sorted when it comes to puncture repair kits to keep them on the road. I like the sound of a puncture plug kit & tyre weld for screws and suchlike issues to help stay moving. Sidewall rupture is a flatbed for now, but I'm definitely going with non RFT in 17 months for the next M40d which I really enjoy driving. Ironically, we were in Arundel, W.Sussex when I got the recent pot hole blow out, so know exactly what you mean, I could not believe the state of the roads in the south of England to be honest, it was like wacky races avoiding pot holes on any main roads. We live in sunny N. Yorkshire and don't suffer from quite so many holes in the roads. Thank you for the information, but interestingly, I have already logged a claim for vehicle damage (tyre) with W. Sussex CC when I got home, their website says it can take 24 weeks before they even look at it... I'll wait and plan for the fight. Cheers Jon
