The BMW X5M and X6M are all about excess. Excess power (if that's possible), excess girth, and, as we already knew, excess cost. BimmerFile is reporting that the X5M will ding your budget to the tune of $85,400, while the X6M will set you back $88,900. And anyone that has ever ...

My friends 1997 318i coupe seems to be suffering badly on acceleration
in first gear only.  It hunts severely unless the clutch is slipped, it
seems to step up the revs in 1000rpm steps as if you are jumping on and
off the accelerator at those points.

I have a 1997 UK 323i 2.5L 6cyl with about 130K miles with a kocking
/rattle comming from the timing chain area.
The sound is like a few stones being mixed in a blender at engine speed,
and sound is when the stone hit the side.

I was walking from my office to the kitchen around 8:00pm tonight to
replenish my glass of Sailor Jerry's and noticed flashing lights outside
my living room window.
I opened the door and what did I see:

trying to replace an oxygen sensor, and have a problem i've never
encountered before.  i just can't get the wire unplugged.  ok, to
clarify, this is on the wife's toyota not on either of my bmw's, but
toyota folks are so less helpful, i figured i'd cross post here as

What, and where, is the Pressure Control Solenoid "C" on a '98 7 Series.
This is my brother-in-law's car. He's reporting that the car does not shift
properly -- I've not ridden in the car and I cannot describe the physical
symptoms -- and he says it shakes. The Check light came on ...

I just acquired a 1995 525i.  I turned on the A/C, but didn't feel any
cool air.  After about 5 minutes, smoke suddenly started spewing from
the vents.
So I shut down the  A/C and fan.  I didn't see anything else wrong, so

I wonder if somebody has an idea what I can do to fix this myself.
At cold start in the morning the engine races, and it takes a while to
calm down, to get to normal idle speed. After that, it restarts fine
and at proper speed. Is there a sensor that can give a bad reading to

Hi - the check engine light came on today (2000 328i) . I read code 1397 (
Camshaft pos. sensor) along with code 1498. Does anyone know what 1498 is? I
saw some info on the web pointing to a transmission fault but that was for a
Mini. It said 1498 was for Mini's only - not BMW's. ...

I am buying a 1995 BMW 320i. But the owner doesn't know the model. I don't
think it says on the V5. How can I find out what model it is?

I'm looking at a 2001 X5 with 90k miles.  Currently own a 1992 E34 which
I'm very pleased with.  Any special things I should watch out for.  I know
the 2001 was the second year of the model, which is a bit earlier in the
cycle than I like to buy, but it's not a deal-breaker, at ...

I am Looking for anything . Any for sale in NJ ?
