In order to pass the MOT test in UK for a left-hand drive BMW 318is,
anyone knows if it is sufficient to apply stickers on headlamps or if

Many thanks,

help with my dashboard lights by
FVG
Two nights ago, I parked my 2000 328i and turned it off. Strangely, the right turn signal kept flashing and I couldn't turn it off until I restarted the car. Since then,
My dashboard display has been behaving strangely. All my lights are working, but my signal lights don't flash or make noise...

Renewing UK warranty is it worth it? by
Mick
I've had my renewal notice from BMW through today: £510. I renewed it last
year on my 1999 E46 323SE, but did not make a claim. I also only do about
8000 per annum (mileage 46K). Has anyone ever got a discount from BMW for
low mileage and no claims?
What do people think of these warranties?

E46 Mud Flaps by
stotham
Fitted a set to my '02 330d Tourer... had to drill holes and use the screws
provided in the kit. You should be drilling in to the plastic cover inside
the wheel arch... not the body work.

540 Tire Pressure Recommendation by
George Johnston
My 2001 540 has 17 235/45 Dunlop Z rated tires on it. They are 85-90% new.
The manufacture's limit is 51psi.
I currently have 42psi in them and I feel that when I throw the car into a
corner, that there is excess tire role.
Can anyone suggest what would be the optimum pressure would be as a rule...

BMW 325i radio by
Ken Bonin
I have a 2003 325i and somehow the settings on the radio are set for
European mode.
i.e. if you want 590 on the AM band it says "MW 594 KHz" instead of "AM 590"
or "MW 1197 KHz" in lieu of "AM 1200" etc....
I tried holding down the "M" button for 15 seconds to bring up the menu to
change the mode...

E30 creaking seat by
David Haggas
I have a 1990 E30 sport which has developed an annoying sqweak on the
drivers seat - maybe my weight is just too much for it. Any suggestions as
to how to cure this? I have had the seat out but can't find the source of
the noise or where lubrication is required.
