| Getting hail damage repaired on 2006 530 | 14 Oct 2006 22:29 GMT | 10 |
This is kind of a generic question, obviously not limited to BMWs. I have a 2006 530xi and had the good fortune of being in Columbus, OH a week or so ago, when a tornado\hail storm rolled through. I wasn't driving at the time, just parked at the hotel.

Once in a while, in my 1992 735i, the OBC computer doesn't come on when I turn the car on. At first I thought it was the bulbs had burned out -- so I set the max mph alert to 30mph.

Just filling up in the petrol station this morning and I saw a guy with a very tidy E34 Touring pull up. It sounded quite sweet but there was just something about the engine note which didn't sound standard. I've owned worked on and even modified quite a few E34s but even I ...

| Technical Mechanical Questions - Converting to Electric | 11 Oct 2006 17:16 GMT | 18 |
Looking at converting an '03 325 to all-electric, but there are some technical problems I can not figure out. I'll be using a 350 VAC electric motor with 530nM torque, so a tranny is not needed. The motor would essentially go where the tranny used to be.
