I installed R56 front brakes.
Reviews of OEM BMW parts For Business
Germany
I have a 530d manual and with a simple decat, egr blank and remap it's faster than a 530i.
HD thrust arms are an improvement without too much sacrifice. Better shocks as well. I’ve found tires make a huge difference with the E39.
Narrow, low-profile tires aren't as forgiving over potholes, especially when riding on the 20" wheels.
I always use the OEM coolant that I pay an arm and a leg for from the dealership. For a few dollars it’s not something I want to chance in vehicles (especially my E46) with such sensitive cooling systems.
I recently ordered some OEM BMW floor mats for my E46 off of FCP (I wanted the clips for the front that come in the "set"). Easy enough, sure the car is 17 years old but I never thought about not being able to order OEM mats.
You have to trim a good 2 inches out of your firewall depending on where your rack is mounted. I’ve found that all racks are not perfectly the same and some require more trimming. I used a bur bit and die grinder and got it done in a few minutes. I also made my own grommet plate from Abs plastic. The z3 rack is by far the best thing I’ve done to the e30.
They called her back again to say after they started working on it, it's not the water pump, but a coolant leak at the cylinder head, at the head gasket, so what was originally a water pump, is now a head gasket job, 3-4 days.
BUT, sadly my 2018 320i msport came with the 60mph "rotational" vibration that can be found pretty often in models spread from 1 to 5 series including M's. I find that very hard to accept from a brand that advertises sheer driving pleasure especially when they can't fix it under warranty.
My 540i at 141k started eating me alive, Alternator blew up
