BMW KIWI

Wow!! Thanks so much for coming back so swiftly Dave @Greydog and pointing me in the right direction. I'll use those decoder sites and check out the pictures and "how too's". Agreed the BMW dealer quoted telephone numbers for the swap out... Love the signature mate re prior cars Ranger Rover (arrrgghhhh) hahaha All the best this Christmas and New Year let's hope 2021 settles a bit for everyone.

Hi Everyone. I was hoping someone could help me out. First time on the chat so thanks for taking some time to respond or not haha I've tried a few VIN decoder sites but they can't find my specific VIN. CarVertical said it was a BMW X1 which is odd given they only came out in 2009. I've had the car for 8 years and my friend had it for 3 prior to that and he purchased it from a car dealership here in NZ. It is ex-Singapore import and has the MSport extras but no badge - maybe just the bodykit, suspension, SMG/SSG? Gearbox, and M floormats lol Can anyone help me ascertain the build specs for this vehicle - as the gear box is playing up (read as, is skipping and clunking) and I need to know what it is I'm having to repair here. Thank you for sharing any info or help you have! Cheers, Barry
