E90 335i

Sparky68 · 10-15-2012, 09:34 AM

Get the car back tomorrow after being in with Stratstones for a week. Boot repaired and repainted, tyre pressure sensor replaced and coli packs and spark plugs replaced.

Cant wait for tomorrow especially as i now have a Burger Motorsport JB4 and intake kit on the way!

i know how you feel dude, i was without my car for 2 weeks when i was having work done to it and couldnt wait to get it back!!!

once the JB4 is fitted will be like driving a new car altogether!!!!

That's what i am hoping, to be honest even as a standard 335i it is going to feel *&%^&*% quick compared to the loan car i had

Sparky68 · 10-16-2012, 01:35 PM

Oh well , still not fixed. Coils replaced , all spark plugs replaced now they are checking if the cats are fubar. Wonder if i will get it back tomorrow!!!!!!

ah boo

Subzero2003 · 10-17-2012, 03:40 AM

Balls

What were the symptoms?

Sparky68 · 10-17-2012, 04:01 AM

29e1 error code under "hard" acceleration. To be fair though, Specialist Cars in Luton are doing everything to cure it and must have spent a fortune so far. Coil packs replaced, spark plugs replaced, maybe new cats as well now! Should here back today on where they are with it.

Subzero2003 · 10-17-2012, 04:09 AM

Ooo,

Fuel mixture control sounds like a tricky one. Since it isn't coils or spark plugs, it'll either be an O2 sensor, injector(s) or HPFP.

Sparky68 · 10-17-2012, 04:16 AM

Just glad it is all getting done under warranty

Sparky68 · 10-17-2012, 07:47 AM

Car done!!!! Will see what the BMW report says.

"Let the foot see the pedal"

Sparky68 · 10-17-2012, 01:25 PM

Happy today, got the car back and running lovely. Got home and my gift to the car has arrived.

I'd wait a few days and make sure the repairs are done right...don't want to have to rip all that shit out. Speaking from experience.

Good thinking, i do 80 miles a day commuting so perhaps give it a week to make sure.

AWBimmer · 10-18-2012, 02:20 AM

Thos wheels look great!

P 5UML · 10-18-2012, 03:13 AM

cant wait to see them wheels on your car dude!!!

Sparky68 · 10-18-2012, 03:14 AM

Me either, need to get it lowered as well and probably some spacers on the back. Got some i had on the e46 vert, wondering if they will fit.

skelts · 10-18-2012, 03:59 AM

Cant wait to see the wheels on mate. Im 99% sure that spacers from the e46 will fit your car.

Sparky68 · 10-18-2012, 05:31 AM

Decided i may as well have this as my build thread so here we go, the 1st updates.
Couple of pics of before and after, complete with Dent that BMW managed to put in and then repair!
