hi nick,im a 328 guy,they are a superb car,plenty of umph for not a lotta cash

welcome

that irritating flickering yellow oil light is back. Just had an oil filter change and it's reappeared. Only ever occurs at very low revs. Sometimes the yellow light stays on just after start-up as I drive off. Have seen numerous posts speculating on what this is caused by, any suggestions or pointers in the right direction would be welcome.

thats what i thought,im happy and clean!

yes,it is,or maybe its me

nice car,i want one

http://www.ganoa.org/Motor_oil2.htm link to article i mentioned,any thoughts? Oh yea,they put a Bosch filter in as well,saw it delivered and fitted. Big up to the Tunbridge Wells branch for good service and a genuine fast fit less than 30 mins,if they spent less time looking over da car for other jobs i would have been in and out in 15 mins.

Tricky,have you seen the oil test that was done on taxis?They used synthetic and regular,two study groups and concluded there was no difference between the two.Worth a look if you can be arsed.Just had kwik fit do mine,they put in mobil 1,some say thats a decent oil.I saw them open the containers and pour it in,and they flushed as per normal.£55.95 see why i cant be arsed getting the spanners out.

you are called the jolly roger aint you?

i dont have a book,i run em into the ground.

Ahhhh,welcome to the world of BMW suspension.Prepare your wallet for a regular beasting.

hey hey

Glad the love boat is cruising again,dogging sites beware!

Kwikfit are noticeable by their lack of comment,will mail the guy direct to see what he says.Oh yea National also failed to reply to my mail.Funny that!You cant get better than a bla bla bla bullshitin fitter from any fast fit op. lol

arrr arrr

Dereliction of duty i calls it shipmate.

Hey should you not be patrolling the waters off the new world captain?Klingons on the starboard bow!

nope,the problem persists till this day.I live 40 odd miles from the centre in Canterbury so returning is not really an option. Even if i had returned,i dont have a deal of faith in your type of operation. The service we get as customers in fast fit operations is generally abysmal. But do not despair, you are not the only centre meting out crap service. I rang National tyres on Friday midday and informed the centre i wanted an oil n filter change on Sat afternoon. I informed them i had problems in the past with them obtaining a filter for the BM,but was told they could do it no problem. I reiterated my concerns to the person on the telephone and again was given the affirmative,no probs. Ok,i take the Mrs to the airport,then head to Corby to get the job done.Going some distance out of my way,but im desperate. I arrive and am greeted by an oily individual,nah mate!,too late in the day,parts boys closed now,bla,bla and more bla.Well thanks you !Removed!! i just drove over here coz some monkey who cant tell his ##### from his elbow assured me you could do it. But hey who gives a ##### your only a customer and too dumb too know any better. Well guess what,i was expecting them to screw up as they have previous. So i went on home and will be booking in with my local independent,who do look after their customers. There is a massive potential customer base out there,but your indifference and lack of staff training,combined with a policy of employing the socially inept,is hampering any progress. If you want to employ me as a consultant to show you where your going wrong im available in the summer. It will be money well spent and the return on investment will pay dividends. I await your reply with interest. Regards James T Harper

sounds like it would be poo,dont see how it can do 12000 miles get filtered or whatever and go again.
