Do I really need to use synthetic oil? Based on everything I've read, there is no practical difference between natural and synthetic oils. Like most of us here, I am not made of money and the huge price difference between the two services is a factor for me. Of course, I will use ...

E39 528i 1997
The rear suspension has started creaking. This happens when going over
bumps, or when I bounce the back up/down. I intend to put it up on
stands tomorrow and take a look, but I know from experience that

1996, M3 Evo, UK. The othr day, after I had changed one CD in the boot
mounted changer, the CD player suddenly quit. In the radio/CD console,
it shows up as No Disc, whereas the changer in the boot refuses to

Right below the intake manifold, on the drivers (US - Left) side; there's a
vacuum line going to a canister in front of the power steering resevoir.
On this line is a small valve or switch; it's black in color; with an arrow on

spark on the plugs as well as the ignition coil and both has no sparks. I
also notice the fuel tranfer pump and fuel is not comming on when engine

The circuit that controls the windows/sunroof had become slow to
initialize after starting my e36.  Eventually, it died altogether.
Many have faced this problem and I just wanted to take the time to post
a solution that worked for me.

Ive been trying to start my BMW e36 1997 last few days - and no
success. Tried last night and the fuel consumption gauge would show far
right when I was trying to start (and chugging like it was trying to
catch), and today, it doesn't show any fuel consumption - and all I

My independent has had my car, a 1990 525i for too long.  He has found
that the cylinders 2-4-6 are getting way too much gas from the
injectors.  He originally put a new air mass meter on it, no change,
that wasn't it.  He thought it was the computer that controlled the

The brake wear light just came on in my 2001 530i. I am not sure whether it
is alerting me to wear on the fronts or rears but, at 68K miles, I plan to
replace all of them. What I am looking for is advice on the pads to buy. I
am mostly concerned with the annoying brake dust. I ...

I accidentally made it bigger. So I put it back in the car and put the
tear together. Is this dangerous to the engine?
I'll look for its replacement in the wreckers this weekend, but if
