  1. Internet search on google - after my insurer requesting that I join the club . Thanks, Roger
  2. Hi, I'm new to the site and have only just bought a 1997 728i - a beautiful car with only 72k mls and 2 owners. There are a few faults one in particular thats bothering me is the display bar in the dash binnacle that displays the trip mileage, milage and temperature etc. The pixels are about 50% gone making it difficult to read. Is this something that is very difficult to repair yourself - and is it expensive to rectify ? Also wondered if I should have the gearbox flushed and refilled with a specific gearbox oil. Do they have a pancake filter fitted that needs changing - I'm not familiar with the sealed for life units ?? Thanks for any advice - Roger
