Hi Guys, Could anyone please give any suggestions on what make and type these lowering springs are, are they coil overs and therefore adjustable? or are they just lowering springs, what would they drop the car by? Being from a swb would they also fit a lwb? does the kit look complete? I`m in negotiation with Rigs who is selling them, but we are both unsure of their full use Thanks for any help Daz

Saw a green M reg zed parked up down a residential street in Anfield on new years eve at about 1pm. Was it you??

When I lock my car the interior light stays on and then dimms to off. No issue with this but im SURE my old one didnt do it. Infact its somethnig that all my bmw's have always done but im sure my old zed didnt do it... Is it something to do with this model year(95)? Or it was broken on my old one? or its something to do with this particular car? Not complaining but just wondering if anyone else has the same thing?

Quick question, which extends lower down? the 99 Spec bumper or the 89 spec bumper? Due to the awkward nature of my drive my new car just touches as its being brought into the drive. My old one did with its 89 spec bumper but I wasnt so bothered about that! My question is if I were to revert back to an 89 spec bumper would it solve the issue, or would it make it worse?

Hi all, right, my problem would seem to be an electrical one so will run it past you all for suggestions. Narrowed the problem to no.6, the cylinder is fine when cold and so far ok when restarted straight after shutting the engine off.The problem occurs when left a while, nothing..removing the coilpack connector makes no difference to the engine note, the same with the injector. I`ve recently replaced the loom so all is good with the connectors, the ptu is a new series 2 with a new loom. So there seems to be an interruption in signal when warm. I`ve swapped coilpacks to eliminate that side of things. Have a new spark plug to pick up, have a new cas, also have sp…

Simple question really, non hicas boss's go for 18 quid or so, hicas enabled bosses fetch 60-70 quid... but i can't see any pictoral evidence that there is any physical difference in the items?! If the normal non-hicas boss 'fits' then what problems would it cause hicas wise? Could somebody confirm? Also if I'm looking to eventually remove hicas anyway would it make any odds? Cheers! David

Seen you a few times, are you on here?! :w00t:

I've noticed a small but long scratch/score on the side of one of the "pots" on my front brake calliper :glare:. I can't feel it but it is quite visible. The question is; is the pot buggered and needing to be replaced or am I being too cautious? could I polish it out? if so what compound do I use? I've tried taking a photo but with my skills it's just coming out black and blurred and not very visible :euro: Think I already know the answer to this :no: but thought I'd ask anyway. cheers Dave

I'm replacing the seals in my front brakes. So far I've done one. Before I go any further can somebody tell me if I've done it right. I've replaced the internal O ring and both the piston and chamber are free of any dirt or scratches. Just want to confirm the seal is on right, before I do the rest. Cheers dave
