BMW may be doing a Clio V6 style Mini. 10 Apr 2005 (Forum)
Heard over the weekend that as a run-out for the current style Mini, BMW are going to produce either a 270 BHP front engined car or a mid-engined version Renault Clio V6 style. The front engined car is up and running and being tested but as I was getting a bit Brahms, I cannot remember whether a prototype has been produced for a mid-engined car....annoyingly as I would love to know there was! -
BMW Steering/Suspension Alignment 25 Oct 2005 (Forum)
I had my four new tyres fitted and the steering and suspension electronically checked. I noticed that it was only a front wheel check and I queried this. I was told that they could do a four-wheel check using their new £26000 machine but this would cost me a lot more money and the rear wheel alignment on my car is not adjustable anyway. -

Sat Nav - General Questions 19 Jun 2006 (Forum)
I took my sat nav on the first longish outing yesterday. I couldn't mount it on the dash as I'm getting a bracket made up specifically for my car so the holder and mount is at the place who are doing it. I wasn't driving, and it seemed to take an age to get a signal. This isn't the first time in this car. I thought perhaps that the Renault I was in had one of them new style photo-chromatic something or other windscreens as it only picked up 4 satellites. -
Mazda 626 (1997 - 1999) - 98 2.0 Failed MOT, testing sensors 15 Aug 2009 (Forum)
I measured sensors with a digital multimeter: MAF measured OK from 1 to 2 V. IAT measured 30 kOhm at room temperature falling to 5 kOhm when heated, OK. ECT measured 38 kOhm at room temperature falling to 3 kOhm in boiling water. This is different from Haynes or Chilton manual (2.5kOhm falling to 300Ohm), but I have another brand new sensor bought for this car and it measures the same as the one in the car, so I assume error in manuals., or change in sensors for 1998+ and not covered in manuals. -
