I was able to find a BMW factory trained indie mechanic who has a shop. Got him to do a drain / fill / filter change etc a few days ago using the same Febi fluid you mentioned. he was able to order...
oh wow! i never realized either that we were that close.
Good to know! do you just have PAsoft like me or do you have INPA/NCS etc, too?
So after many years of procrastination, I got PASOFT v 1.4 installed on my XP laptop and can confirm it works.
If anyone around Fayetteville, NC needs to use it, just PM me or post here.
Finally got the PASOFT installed on the XP laptop. Was able to do it by myself, but had Tony on "standby" just in case, which was a bog help. \
Only did 3 things today:
--cleared some DTCs, ...
Thanks to all the responses. Learning a lot. I think I need to do more research and be patient.
Will change to the Saleri WP (read quite a bit on E46 and saw Mango also recommending the same:...
Thanks for the tip re: bleeder screw - I guess I will change it back to a regular one.
About the water pump: I thought one needed to get one with METAL impellers? So does the Saleri have one?
I...
They do look great, and I will probably go this route as soon as I get done with 2 other projects:
1. Cooling system overhaul / refresh (see my new post asking for some recc's)
2. Transmission...
Thanks!
I just put a list together at Turner because the guy who chatted with me was able to customize the kit and add it to my cart so I could edit/add as I wanted, and It was easy to take...
So this is my edited cart from Turner... removed radiator for now and changed expansion tank...
Any thoughts/feedback??

I am going to check if ECS or Tuner would allow me to substitute the exp tank for a BMW (updated version) or a Behr.
If they allow that, do you think the Turner and ECS kits are decent? I'd rather...
Thanks for the reply
So, the Meyle expansion tank is in ECS/Tuner kits, and it is a REIN in the FCPEuro kit.
I haven't had much experience with either brands, so you're saying the Rein ET is...
I apologize for addressing a topic that has been discussed and I did read through many of the previous posts.
However, over time, contents of these kits and prices have changed quite a bit, along...
Thanks, John!
Yes, the square set up is def in the future, (and is your car lowered with that square setup?)
BUT for now, I am just wanting to make sure 235/40/18 will be OK for the front 8" ZHP...
Time to replace tires.
AND time to get the ZHP (style 135) set back on the car (currently running a staggered set of style 264 with stock tire sizes)
The tire I want is out of stock at TR for...
Ah. Got it.
Thanks!
do you mean with Maxlife ENGINE oil?
I was asking about Maxlife ATF.....
I will be having a local BMW indie shop do a dain / fill + filter change soon. My Car is at 67k miles and is a 2005 so pretty sure it's a GM AT.
Shop said they will either use some "universal" ATF...
Oh ok. That's a relief because I was afraid it was some HIR like halogen bulb in the housing. I will never install LED bulbs in stock housing. It's gonna be a better halogen in stock housing OR a...
Thanks guys, I will def look at the links and info
A lot over my planned budget but I guess you pay for good quality and warranty.
And is that pic of a higher power halogen bulb in a normal...
I am not a big fan of LEDs in halogen/regular housings... SO, being old school, i was wondering how to spice up the fogs a little bit while staying halogen. I use them with parking lights a lot as my...
Wish we could do some type of group buy for ZHP A pillars ... Mine are needing replacement.
Just as an FYI:
While researching on replacing my trunk latch actuator I came across this:
IDK if anyone in US makes this. The complete trunk wiring looms I've seen from BMW is like 287 bucks.
...
Damn! That's a lot.
I just found a local BMW specialized shop and I want to get ATF drain/fill, cooling system refresh (prob ESC level 2 kit) and perhaps DISA valve upgrade done...
None of these...
