  1. Well car still at garage : Timings ?? Something about they have replaced a roller and now are flushing the oil getting it up to temperature and flushing it again ! Now a leak in the sump. Totally bamboozled !
  2. Thank you so much , that is really helpful. The garage where I bought it (main Fiat / Volvo dealership) , said they had a look and have now booked it in to BMW for Wednesday and will give me a Fiat 500 to raz round in ! Will let you know....... Going to get the to look at : ariel - not great reception , 2 x powerpoints (cig lighter) not working ( think fuse has gone ) and hand brake. Amazes me when they say they do the "100 point" checks on used cars ! Anyone know anything on the Diamondbrite high gloss skin and upholstery protection ?? Said would do it for £99 and guarantee it for life ?? Thank You :)
  3. Hi Been out today and although no loud engine noises, has stalled a couple of times ! Now for a dudess - is this an easy task ? Thanks :rolleyes:
  4. Hi, Its not nearly stalling , I guess does that mean "hunting" ? Its not too bad yet. Its got to go back for its service where I bought it so I will tell them. Vacuum leak ? Is that a straight forward repair do you know ? Thank You for your help
  5. Hello Had my 3 Series for about a week and very happy :) I have noticed that when at a stand still with the engine ticking over , the revs are fluctuating ? You can feel a slight juddering in the engine. Should the engine tick over at a steady 900 ? If anyone knows what this is, how I can sort it out I would be very grateful. Thank You
  6. What nice people - I feel very welcome, Thank you :)
