Well I'm in no hurry really. I'm offshore right now but back next week and will call in to the dealer to have a chat. Looked online and can see some "nearly" cars on the used car section of BMW site but there aren't many cars with tow bar, third row seating, adaptive headlights pro sound e...

HI Guys I'm 90% sure I'm going to bite the bullit and order a new X5. BMWs first offer seems good with a 5700 discount and an APR of 4.? percent on PCP. Does anyone know any forum friendly dealers who can beat that. Also wondering what the lead time is for a new car right now? I would ask the edaler...

Time to sell my X5! Can no longer justify it as we have moved in town where parking is at a premium. Advert says I am in Isle of lewis but we have actually moved top Elgin but pistonheads ad wont let me change it as i haven't changed my credit card address yet. Sterling grey with grey exclusive leat...

Thanks guys i saw these I'm not by the car just now, is t5 small enough, I remember the screw was tiny????

Hi guys

I am trying to take my armrest apart to check my Bluetooth connections but my torx set is too fat. It's an interchangeable set.

My local suppliers have non small enough. Can anyone recommend a good set for me. When I search all sets seem to start at t10!

Thanks

Hi. I'm at completely the opposite end of the country (as in hebrides on the west coast of scotlands!) and am considering making you an offer but only if you would be interested in packing the wheels up so i can arrange a courier to pick them up. How would you feel about that?

[quote=""Raj""]Cheers again all. It certainly is in need of a decent clean. The ride is much firmer but not uncomfortable. Tbh it's nowhere near as boneshaking as a 996 turbo.[/quote] Do you have a 996 turbo too Raj?? Just wondering cause i do too! Sold the M5 and the cat for the...

Thats the thing, how do I know the button is working, I don't think it's used for anything else!

There is the same symbol on the wheel buttong but i don't think that will induce bluetooth pairing mode anyway.

Thats my problem, the darned thing wont go into pairing mode! Have tried so many times and also had the armrest apart but still nowt. Cant update the operating system for the nav either, could they be related???

Raj is that the non xenon upgrade from Teddy? Looks very good indeed. I really like the look of the halo's too!

Decidedto have a look on C3 BMW and found them at 78 each or so. Thought that was a decent price, not too cheap but not BMW rip off prices. We'll see how they go!

Which ones did you get, I see there are two types on there.

Given the miles I think changing the entire wishbone is the way to go, but my question is weather I should use ECP or spend nearly double the money on the BMW item? The issue is that I have a wobble in my braking at medium pedal pressures, see the thread about steering wobble under braking. That thr...

I need two new wishbones for the X5. BMW are quoting 380 for the parts but it seems Euro car parts are less than 200. The car is 2004 with 80000 miles, which should I go for?

I emailed cotswold BMW today who do a discount for BMWland members but the price was still £400 for the left and right wishbones. Part No 10.

Anyone know if there is anywhere I can get them a bit cheaper??

Thanks
