Newbie!

Hi all picked up my E90 LCI 330i M-Sport on Thursday. Really enjoying the car ATM, it does however need a really good clean, not as clean as I expected with it being used approved and all. I've got a few questions but I'm sure I'll get pointed in the right direction for answers.

Hi All.

New to the site, I've just purchased a 08 325d M-Sport with 61k. Really enjoying the car so far.

the only mod's i have in mind are a rear lip spoiler and to get a iPod connection to the iDrive.

I will possibly look at a new set of wheels once the weather sorts itself out.

How Do,

New owner of a 56 plate 320D SE Tourer,

Just wanted to introduce myself.

The car has 207k on it, but looks like its done 30K. Very happy with it.

Wondering if there was any way (other than trial and error) of finding out what options are fitted to my car.

I know over on the 75 & ZT Club that I used to frequent, you could provide your number plate (or vin) and you could get a complete set of data, date it rolled off production line, colour, specs, options etc.....

If not Ill just try and work my way around it.

Tatty Bye.

Also, any advice of any other UK Owners forums, is greatly appreciated

Hello Peeps,

nice to be part of the forum. I've just picked up a 2010 E91 320i and am loving it so far - quite a step up from a 2002 Ford Focus!

Hey all,

Been lurking on here for a few months now but thought I'd better sign up

I'm the proud owner of a 2008 335i MSport in Sparking Graphite Metallic, with 47k miles on the clock. Previously owned a 2004 330ci but fancied a bit more power and something a tad newer, so the 335i was the natural progression and I'm so glad I made the move.

She's pretty well-specced with the following option boxes ticked:

Pro Nav
HiFi speaker system
TV function
USB + Aux port
Sunroof
Folding mirrors
Auto dimming wing mirrors
Front & rear parking sensors
Climate comfort windscreen
Individual sunshade glazing
Adaptive headlights
High beam assistant
Extended light package
Heated seats
Extending armrest

The wheels have been refurbed in a smoked chrome finish, and I've fitted an M3-style boot lip spoiler. Future plans are to do a Cobb Stage 1 and the Alpina B3 TCU flash.

Here's a quick pic:

Hi Guys,

I am Jazz from East London. I am very much a BMW enthusiast and have always loved them since as far back as I can remember. My very first car to which I still have is the BMW E30 318iS 1990. A beautiful classic three series which had given me much joy and headache. I have owned this car for over 8 years now.

I have had many cars there after and inbetween but my very last car I had was the BMW E46 325i M Sport Auto in Sliver. Again what a beautiful car it was. I kept this for 3 years and then sold this to a very good friend of mine last year.

I take it I have joined the ever growing group of individuals who share and same joy and passion that BMW have to offer. I am hoping the gurus here can guide me on my next purchase. I am very much still in the research stage of the following:

1:E92 335i M Sport
2:E92 330i M Sport

Hoping I can find out what i need to here with you all.
Regards
J

Newwwww :)

yesterday made the long drive from london to bristol to get my new baby early, got the 325i e92. Moving from a 316ti, second car too bought it from bmw. For a steal new wheels and tyres too plus all the approved used benefits!

few questions though, I have i drive its the newer one but my car is the pre lci only just which is very annoying! But I have loads of options. Does anyone know if I can use a snap in adapter to get music from my 4th gen ipod touch?

Did I say I was loving the car? moves like a rocket. Economy is a joke right now though. done 3/4 of a tank in 40 hours lol

Newbie looking at 335d

I am looking at 335d coupe later this week. Its was registered in late 2010.
I have looked around online and I just have a few questions.

1. The car has USB connectivity, is it simply a case of plugging my i-phone in and away I go?
2. The seller states the car has LED eyebrow lights, are these an oem item? anyone got any pictures?
3. The car also has BMW assist online portal. What is this and is it any good?
4. I have read a bit about alloy wheels cracking, is this a common issue and is it something BMW will sort out F.o.C?

Finally, are there any problems specific to the 335d or even just the 3 series that I should be looking out for when I view the car?

Thanks!

Hi

Hi

New 335i owner here. Well I've actually had it since October but I've just found this forum.

Trying to get some new rear tyres I've discovered one wheel has previously been welded (poorly) and has 2 new cracks, so basically it's scrap and I need to post a wanted ad in the classifieds.

Thumbs up From an Old bloke but New poster lol

Hello to One and All,
I am new to the forum and have just purchased a 2005 E90 320d SE, not as exciting as a lot of the cars on here but I am loving it so far and it seems a lovely way to dip my toes deeper into the BMW way of life/ownership.
To be honest my reason to buy was originally just as a second knock about motor so its a vehicle with 187000 miles on the clock, but its in wonderful condition and drives like its done half that mileage and to be honest since it arrived my "main" motor has had little work!
The reason I said deeper into BMW ownership is because my other motor uses the six cylinder BM diesel engine as its prime mover and so I am already well aware of the reliability and longevity of the marque.

Hi all, last month I got myself a 2005 E90 320d M Sport in Le Mans Blue and really enjoying it so far. Had an issue with the auxiliary belt tensioner whining which is now resolved, but apart from that it has been great! This is my second BMW, had an E46 328ci previously which was also great but too thirsty for my work commute! Have found a lot of useful info already on this forum and hope to see you all around!
