Okay, so your shiny late model BMW has finally surpassed the free service
mileage limit and - since you've decided to keep the car for a few more
years - you now have to pay for all your oil changes, brake jobs and other
miscellaneous repairs out of your own pocket.

   Has anyone any suggestions as to how I can get my bonnet latches to
close securely on both sides ?  Let me elaborate...
I have a year 2000 E46 and sometimes one of the bonnet catches comes loose
and the bonnet lifts slightly on one side.

I am a bit confused. Does the OBD-II standard vary on European vs. US cars
of the same make and year?
I have a 1997 BMW 528 iA Tour E39 M52 BX31513 made for the German market.

Brake Force Display is now standard on the 3 series sedan apparently...
Does anyone have a link for a photo of what the rear light cluster looks
like on the new 2004 sedan (not coupe) with BFD - do they have LED
indicators too?

Greetings all!
I'm currently planning to upgrade my E46 318ti to a new 320Ci or 325Ci towards the end of the year.
Whilst my car was getting serviced the other day, I had a quick chat to a salesman. I sat in a 325Ci only to discover that I had less headroom in it than in my 318ti. ...

I live in the UK and have just bought my 1st Bimmer (2000 528i SE). Can
anyone point me in the direction of good areas to find out more about the
car - I pick it up in 2 days, and also can anyone tell me the E number for
this one.

I remember somebody, whose last name is Burns had a really good BMW website
(I believe he also touted Linux). Does anybody have the website on hand?
Thanks,

I am trying to sell my BMW ('99 M3 covertible with 32k miles on it)

best to do this?  Has anybody by any chance used a broker to sell
their car?

hard I push.  Whats the trick!!??!!
