spare wheel

Hi everyone,
Just a quickie,

I have a 2009 e70 with 19" wheels and need a spare wheel for it, I have found a 17" e53 spare wheel going cheap, will this fit mine ok without winding the diffs up etc?
cheers.
Paul.

Rust bubbles on top door surrounds?

Anyone have or had this problem?

Washed the car the other day and it looked mint until I saw some bubbles on the top of the door frame, anyone here tackled this? mine is Aug 2009 so will the warranty still be valid?

Re: Possible stupid question regarding climate control

Re: Egr question

I agree, sold my old 2005 e53 yesterday with 150k on it and it was still like a sewing machine, my 09 e70 does not feel as refined, sure, its quicker and looks the part, but the overall impression so far is they cut some costs on this model, feels more like a car and not the truck it is! I'm still g...

Re: E70 Aero Package

Hi Pat,

I'm probably going to get this kit, is it from "pro parts" ? I have just received the eyebrow kit (£18) and 4 x flared arch kit painted in my colour (£195) from them, good quality stuff I reckon !

Re: Egr question

Hi, Yes have ordered the swirl flap blank kit and I think I may as well get the egr complete blank off kit off ebay whilst I am under there, may as well because it won't be used again ! Did my first motorway journey of 90 miles today and it is returning a respectable 34 mpg between 70mph and 80 mph ...

Egr question

I have just had a stage 1 remap with EGR delete on the truck.....absolutely turned it into a different car altogether!
Question is, should I now remove the egr etc and blank off along with the swirl flaps?

cheers
