I always found the Lidl windscreen stuff used at 50% dilute good and cheap as well, no problems with gunging up.

I've got the Audew 2000, had to use it on my 4.4 X5 couple of weeks ago, worked a treat, well pleased.

Good news !! Car passed MOT with only 1 advisory >>>>>Tyre slightly damaged/ cracking or perishing (all four ) [5.2.3 (d)(!!)]. So panic over and ok for another 12 months. It would seem that Michelin have discontinued the Diamaris tyre, so what is the replacement ? Are Hancook ?? any good ?? Lez

At the last MOT on my 2002 4.4 x5 E53 (Nov 2001) I had an advisory for : all 4 tyres perishing and cracking. They are hair line cracks and barely visibly , I have done 400 miles since this MOT. and have 6-7mm tread remaining Now should I wait for the next MOT (Tues 15th Nov 22) and see what happens ...

I have a 2002 4.4 E53 X5. I am after a new battery, preferably maint free as I have a girt big lpg tank sitting on top of the battery and have to remove the lpg tank to gain access. My obvious solution is to buy a maint free lithium battery , so any suggestions, the more power the better. As an asid...

Hi there, I have lpg on my 4.4 , luckily have not experienced this fault, but now filed away for reference.

I'm not being funny,but would have changed the bearings as well, not a difficult job with the alternator out.

On my 2002 E53 I have painted them ''pillar box red ''. I'm nearly an 80 year old and if it makes me look a pre pensioner great!!!

Lez

Bloody hell !!! get your money back, or go to trading standards, surely this car should not be in the road. I am pretty sure that a roadside police stop would have the car confiscated.

And the price is :------- ?????

Have some fun and fit an E46M type paddleshift steering wheel and convert to paddleshift as well, i've done it, but cannot remember how (the vagaries of being nearly 80).
Also had the lpg conversion fitted.
Ther is lots you can do.

Lez

Yes I saw that in the Mail, should not be too long before it is 'Hacked' and someone will make a fortune.

Lez

Welcome,
Like the wheels !!
Mine is a 4.4 with the lpg conversion, lpg is around 95ppl so still an affordible set of wheels.
