• BMW V8 25 Mar 2003 (Forum)
  Is this the Nicasil liner problem and what can he do about it? The bill is scary. Does anyone know if BMW will foot the bill (or part of it)? It's a 1995 car I think. If anyone has any websites or forums he can visit when his computer is working again (it hasn't been a good couple of weeks) he'd be grateful.
• BMW New or used? 23 Oct 2002 (Forum)
  Help! I have promised my wife a 3 series BMW for her birthday. We have narrowed it down to a 318tiSE Compact. THe final decision is new or used. It would appear that nearly new is not far off the same price as brand new. We have looked at imports but the price difference again is not massive and I am not sure I trust the specs.

• BMW X5 40D - Dashboard rattle 10 Dec 2015 (Forum)
  My view is that it is the central vents 'housing' rattling where it inserted into the rest of the facia. Possibly some felt tape or some such might fix it. Advice needed as to what to do. 1. Take to BMW dealer and ask them to have a look and see what they can do? 2. Take to independent BMW specialist to have look? 3. Put up with it as it not a big issue and accept it as just one of those things that will happen in a stiffly sprung 4 year old SUV?
• BMW 1 Series - Bumper repair - third party extortion 23 Sep 2015 (Forum)
  I don't really want to be involved but this seems like extortion and I think they've milked it but going to the BMW garage whose eyes lit up when they knew it was insurance/third party. Does anyone have any suggestions, aside getting a copy of the invoice, on how to challenge this as I feel as though my cleaner has been, well, taken to the cleaners?
• BMW 1 series M sport 118 2011 model - Front Tyres 5 May 2015 (Forum)
