Presumably the easiest way to check is with a temperature gun after a drive with minimal use of the brakes?

As above and seems to be coming from the front right. Thinking driveshaft or wheel bearing. Just been up to Gatwick this morning, can’t hear it at speed but with less wind and engine noise it’s there and if I lift of the throttle the noise goes away returns immediately the throttle is applied no mat...

I know there are a few on here that have lpg fitted, anyone come across the problem of not being able to fill up fully. 85 ltr tank has taken 66/67 ltrs for years from empty. Now it will only take between 45 and 50 ltrs. Tried different garages but same problem.

Just for the record I collected a complete interior (seats) door cards for my sons x when he had it. Seats on their side siting on folded down back seats the rest fitted in easy.

I completely agree about the toe, way more important than camber hence to make sure toe is in the 0.05 area. I’m on 23k atm on 315s with plenty of life left. I put that down to getting the toe sorted

I assume the garage used decent diagnostics and if the light is on they should have got a code. If the level sensors are set up differently that should produce a code. Try disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes again which should clear all fault codes. If the light comes back there should be a new...

If you’re going to throw your wallet at i...

I would be getting a second opinion sounds like there probably wasn’t anything wrong with the first starter motor, working from time to time was probably just the start of fault that is elsewhere. I’d be amazed if it’s the ECU. Unplug it and see if there’s any corrosion on the pins. If it doesn’t st...

416819C7-7DA2-4EEB-9AE4-94B7303F6298.jpeg I’ve changed the fuel pump and filter for Mehle items. Fuel pressure is restored to normal and I opened the old filter to see what 170k internals look like. I was curious as when I emptied the old one what drained out was the colour of coke. Start is instan...

I have a l/h/d e30 m3 you could have for the bargain price of 50k. Although I’d have accept that my son and grandson have said they will disown me if I sell it.

I think the system is determined to get you into an EV one way or another using draconian measures if necessary. I admire how the French get out on the streets if they are not happy like with the retirement age.

In the past I have taken them to bits and always found the cheap little gear wheel repair kits and some new grease sorts them out. The hardest thing to fix is if the little micro switch metal arm is broken/missing or bent. Haven’t found anywhere to buy the micro switch with the correct arm.

Been out and about today during which time the X started to hesitate, die of throttle and could only be kept running by using the throttle. No fault codes so did a fuel pressure test and am seeing 38psi rather than 50/52. Is this likely to be the filter which incorporates the pressure regulator or t...

Didn’t take the switch out, just sprayed contact cleaner either side of the knurled wheel rolled it up/down a few times and all is good. If only everything was so easy.
