  2. Hope this helps
  3. Welcome A lovely collection you have there And I see you know Daz the legend
  4. Fix it meet sounds fantastic As I carry my toolbox everywhere this is my kind of thing Wouldn't mind doing a monthly meet, or maybe just a quarterly
  5. K&N are said to help improve flow http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2006-BMW-330Ci-3-0L-K-N-Performance-Gold-Oil-Filter-/360596363493?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item53f537d8e5
  6. I think I get you. I own a 320d e46 tourer 2003 model BMWs tend to be heavy steering and heavy clutch. I cant comment on your gear ratios as they will be a little different to mine, but it took me a few months to get used to my very first BMW (320d saloon E46). At first it did feel like I was lugging it about on my back, but I have grown to like it now and I just hate driving any other car. I had a A3 not so long back, 1.8T Quattro (Not muck unlike your GTI), and that just felt very loose and horrible to drive. Its something you will get used too and begin to love.
  7. Check for spark on them old dirty plugs first mate. Then check relays 1,2 and 3 A quick way to check them, I dont advise doing this is bridging pin 30 to 87.
  8. As I buy and sell cars for a living it changes regularly.. Our 2 main cars are my 320d tourer and the wifes Honda Civic. But this week I've had a Vauxhall Signum Audi A3 1.8t Quattro Citroen Saxo VTR E36 compact 318ti Mtec
  9. Yeah different set up to the fronts. Also while your there check the condition of shocks, as BMW standards are pretty weak
  10. Jack it up mate. Take wheel off and check for cracked spring. Best way to do it is unbolt the shock from the bottom bolt and take spring out.
  11. Are they separate coil packs or just one for all plugs?
  12. Swap a few relays round see what happens, this my just be a poor sticky relay. Your 100% you have sparks? Maybe a compression test? Testers can be found quite cheap on Ebay at the moment.
  13. I missed this one!! Welcome to the club dude
  14. Great stuff mate.... Good work
  15. Welcome to BMWOC
  16. Odd, as I ran the exact same wheels on my coupe and tourer, both were lowered and got no problems. Looking from the rear of your car, do the wheels look at different camber? None of the arch lining is loose?
  17. Right, I put in HK speakers, not really getting the quality I want. Managed to get my hands on 2 1000w amps, 1 2 channel and 1 4..and 2 6x9 infinity speakers so gonna rip everything out and start again. Could someone please explain how, what a which crossovers I need? Not got a clue what ones to get. The 6x9s will be run from the 2 channel amp the door speakers from the 4 channel. So am I iChat in thinking I only need crossovers for the tweeters?
  18. M3 Reps, 225 tyres all round?
  19. Hi welcome to the forum mate. You may get more answers post Qs in the 1 series forum.
  20. As above, you would see darker squiggly lines if you look close
  21. G4VHD replied to Gadget760Li's topic in BMW 7 Series Forum
    Anywhere that does laser alignment mate.. BMW not always the best
  22. Maybe your camber is out. More than likely shocks though mate.
  23. How do your brakes feel?
  24. We are here to help. Welcome to BMWOC
