The E89? Honestly considered one as I like them. 35is. Twin turbo boost bus! But felt the ///M looked and sounded better, plus was more special.
I sound like him, see;
So a few updates to this.
First of all, the springs were replaced as above and the car genuinely feels stiffer and better at the rear. It ended up costing me the same as going to an Indy due to the warranty company paying for half of it, which was a nice surprise on Saturday when the cheque...
Looks ace buddy - they are such great cars. Glad your advice made my decision in the end!!
List of stuff for mine is ever growing... want rather than need in most cases!!
- refurb wheels
- new rear brake light (bought)
- new rear brake discs (bought)
- OEM LED number plate lights and connectors...
Ye of little faith. £65 cheaper and aircon regassed FOC because of the wait (asked them to do it as was on offer @ £89). Just delays getting it on the Ramps apparently.
Springs on, genuinely feels stiffer at the back, as I'm basically say over it. Few controlled rolling breaks in traction on...
Drive to petrol station, spray car with citrus power/equivalent, walk to shop and buy basic jet wash (leaving time for Citrus Prewash to dwell), jet wash off, drive back to flat, 2BM, buckets to rinse, QD and dry.
My method for over two years. If the car is well protected, it will work just fine.

page 5/6, but don't let this put you off. I think it reacted to a number of things;
- C2V3 underneath and thus perhaps beaded first of all when sprayed on
- didn't follow up with an open hose wash down to...
So @Scrooge that's interesting. I almost bought some before Xmas for the Zed as I've seen a couple of "didn't work over X product" stories, but having still got the bottle of pre'14 Reload, I want to try it again.
Glad it worked for you RDR.
You mean like Wonder Wheels Cleans Wheels aka brick acid? I assure you Halfrauds have less automotive knowledge than my grandmother, let alone anything detailing related.
If it does, I'm not bloody paying. I've been quoted what I've been quoted. Even been given the job time code for some unbeknown reason.
Although interesting you've said that - they said I couldn't book in on a Saturday "in case it takes longer". I told her I couldn't book it in any other day, so...
A five minute job it might be, but I don't want to do it and don't have the current weekends free to go see a certain gem of a lad in Tillbury.
@TomSx they've quoted half an hour all in. Which is still £90. But I feel it's a small price to pay for what seem like anal ///M fans when I come to...
Lol, yeah, happy fricking new year to us buddy!
A/ it's a known issue and an ///M - people on the forum ask if they've been done, so come sale time, I want to say "yes" with BMW stamps.
iWish.
It is warranty work - long short of it PM'd.
In all honesty, on the Zed, I find them too fussy. Especially on the Roadster. Some Coupes look OK and they really suit the E46 (naturally)... I think I'm happy with the standards for now!
No updates to report - goes in on the 17th to have the rear springs done at BMW. TBH I've been getting back at 9pm each night from work, so no time to drive. Saturday I'm out at the rugby and dinner... might be driving to the garage as the next time it gets driven and then away on hols for two...
Interesting mate, as one has snapped. What are they out of interest - standard stuff? Parts aren't that expensive (booked in on the 17th for both rears to be done), it's just the £180p/hr labour.
Ha, not at all - I bought it because of the roof. Damned if I'm not going to have it down every...
