Guys, I'm catching this thread as my CI has a bad circuit board with stock LED for the taillights. None are replaceable. What are my options, seeing bulbs being mentioned? Do the Euro cars use a...
I took apart the pass side. Not encouraging as the outer and inner seal (plastic weld) was not tight. The LED's are tiny and it doesn't take much corrosion to cause them to fail. To me, a great...
Guys, thanks for the replies and also moving this to lighting section. I have a number of bad ones, both sides. I found a post on another site about getting LED bulbs from Radio Shack or similar. ...
Guys, had the car about one year, read about some ground issues with the taillights. Min work fine except it appears a few bulbs or LED are bad. Specifically the ones on the outside half circle. ...
Actually, his first number was 1200. They say the sub frame has to be dropped, which may be the case. We will do the easy one first. It is not the only car I drive, so I won't be under the gun...
Thanks guys, I spotted a thread as soon as I posted and saw what looked like my condition. I pulled the air box and can see oil pooling on the block, above the pan. I will plan to replace the OFHG...
This may be a stretch to call myself new at just short of a year. I had the car in this AM for the airbag recall. Dealer brought it to my attention that we have oil on the bottom of the engine. ...
I got the mirrors fold up and in today. Thanks for the tip. Battery tender, Stabil and a cover and we are good for a few months.
Thanks Ill give that a try next time I go to my Dads where it is stored. I am fortunate that he has an extra bay. No snow for this car. And, without snow tires, it gets loose even in the rain.
Now that I figured that out, I got stumped putting the car cover on. Specifically, how do I fold the damn mirrors? The don't fold and I can't tell if they are power folding. The mirror switch...
Never mind, changed to Aux setting and we now have sound. Very happy for a $10.00 connector.
Guys, still somewhat new after buying my 04 330ci in the spring. I am trying to connect my I Phone 5 using the head phone jack to the business CD. I bought the cable, connected, but cannot get the...
Yep, it is Euro formula. I have used Blackstone and will send in at next oil change. Thanks for the feedback.
Quick question regarding oil. After doing some research here, I changed tonight to Castrol 0W/40 Edge European formula. I then read in the owners book that wither 5/30 or 5/40 is to be used. Am I...
Thanks to both Eric and Bobby. LMFAO about website. My funny story is I called to ask about the kit (BAv Auto) and the sales associate said he would not replace anything till it failed. No the...
Regarding diff oil, I did an initial change and did not have enough Redline, so I ended up with some conventional 80/90. Drained a week later to put in all synthetic and it came out grayish looking....
RC, did the FCP kit include radiator? I plan to do this in a week or so and was leaning to the Bav Auto kit as it has everything, including belts and idlers. my car has 69,000 K. Plan to do the...
Home link arrived and installed today. Programming was more time consuming than install. Diff oil appears to be yellow again after a week of driving. Not sure what was up with it previously....
This forum is paying off!. Read the write up and found a nice Homelink on Ebay. Should get it this week. Need to research what the phone mike is for, can't imagine BMW still had a phone in 2004...
IKe, what is the Homelink control you have listed? Is it add on? That is one feature I miss form my other car. I'll check the diff fluid after another week of driving.
Nice looking car, welcome. I am also going to have to do the cooling soon on mine.
Guys, got a differential oil question. Car 68,000. I changed the gear oil last weekend, using about 1/2 Redline 75/90 and the rest was 80/90 Valvoline. I t seemed the oil drained did not look...
My complaint was after just 2 weeks, the left front tire got a sidewall bubble. Most likely due to pothole. Annoying as the tire was like new 7/32 tread depth. Curious if anyone else runs into...
My 04ci (Imola/tan) with 68,000 auto from California was $9300. Fair price, I think.
Leaning towards the complete kit from BAV auto at about $850.00. The seem to include everything, including Stewart water pump, and all belts and pulleys. The ECS kit doesn't give an option for a...
