  1. Verify this information on the RealOEM website... Regarding my vehicle, namely a BMW E46 320CD from the 55 registration plate. The image is resized, but it should be imported into a photo editor to accurately locate the position of the pipes.
  2. Not too far from Middlesex, then.Please get this message to Jason @ BWchiptune if possible. I have his contact information, which can be easily obtained from his Facebook or website. Many others on this platform can confirm his credibility. Despite being 400 miles distant, I have personally used his services many times.
  3. Any reputable tuner would not do mapping on a vehicle with existing flaws. If they do, they are unprofessional and inexperienced.What is your location?
  4. Another option is to purchase the item from Amazon and use their return policy (see whether "Free Returns" is stated in the item description) in case it does not meet your expectations. Although this method does not allow for a direct comparison, it ensures that you will not be left with a defective product.
  5. Have you received the confirmation email from EMaC about your online purchase? There is no need for concern. I purchased one item in-store and the other item online. The dealer is aware of the existence of a service plan via the system. That is the only thing that is important.
  6. Are you suggesting that it will happen suddenly and without any prior notice?
  7. By equipping the vehicle with drag radials and maybe implementing weight reduction measures. I have seen several instances of SC63 in the tens on the forum.
  8. Hello everyone, I have just put the PTG supercharger on my C63 together with the Fi Interchiller. As a result, I have achieved a significant increase of over 250WHP (wheel horsepower) on 95RON gasoline with the assistance of an octane booster. What is the maximum power that the factory P31 motor and gearbox can handle? I am currently using the factory pulley, but I have the option to switch to a smaller pulley, which would result in a significant increase of 30-40 wheel horsepower. Is it advisable for me to proceed with this action? Is it guaranteed to be secure? I want to achieve a quarter-mile time of less than 10 seconds with my automobile. The automobile was tested on the same dynamometer and fueled with the same gasoline. The vehicle's excessive movement on the dyno prevented them from reaching the rev limitation. If they had managed to reach 7k RPM, the car would have produced 680WHP. The chiller is essential for SC automobiles since it effectively maintains low temperatures and reduces the need for further ice top-ups. since the AC condenser receives more airflow, the water temperatures decrease, resulting in colder conditions.
  9. Purchase a can of spray paint that is of the same shade as the colour black. Choose between gloss, satin, or any other available finish. Apply a little amount of the substance into the cap and use a delicate artist brush or toothpick to gently touch the damaged area. The aforementioned method will provide you with the most optimal and cost-effective paint match.
  10. Mercedes brake pads are reasonably priced, since they are original equipment (OE) and compatible with the vehicle. Contact Mercedes Newcastle via their eBay store to inquire about the pricing.
  11. Cazoo is facing significant challenges and is struggling to stay afloat, as shown by its own news releases indicating the sale of assets such as vehicles. Cinch is affiliated with BCA and WBAC, belonging to the same organisation. This affiliation provides them access to a vehicle buying and selling pipeline, as well as a robust financial assistance network to mitigate any potential difficulties during challenging months. vehicle dealerships and the whole transaction process may be intimidating, and certain vehicle dealers (especially those working in dealerships or car supermarkets who are not company owners themselves) typically, and rightfully so, have a less than favourable reputation. I have encountered situations with them that my wife and daughter would not have found agreeable, but I persisted only because the automobiles we were purchasing were advantageous offers. They would be more suited for remote purchase.
  12. If you need your collected data from the day, you may reset the cumulative value by pressing and holding the [OK] button. Indeed, acquiring the automobile will result in the forfeiture of your accumulated total. However, if you have a genuine need for the daily amount, it may serve as a temporary solution.
  13. Thank you once again for dedicating your time and providing guidance I will dismantle and thoroughly cleanse all boost pipes. Additionally, the intercooler is also present. Is it accurate to assume that after the plastic has been consumed by the turbo, the plastic components will now be located downstream of the turbo and will not do any harm to a new turbo? I have purchased a new Samco turbo inlet along with wrap-around clamps.
  14. Highly valuable and candid information. Absolutely avoid purchasing low-quality products from China. I have learned from past experience that their inexpensive items are of poor quality and should be avoided. The low price is indicative of their inferior nature. Yes, definitely clean all components of the intake pipe. Is there a particular method for cleaning an intercooler? Thank you for your kind feedback.
  15. We appreciate your prompt response and valuable information. Have you personally used Mellet? According to my knowledge as a father, the little car is just a Standard little Cooper S. Is there a simple and reliable way to verify?
  16. Greetings, @alpaco45 Would you want to install a new mellet chra? I am experiencing some confusion. There is a section of the plastic inlet tract that is absent.
  17. Greetings, everyone. In addition to the low pressure, I believe the turbo intake blades are also compromised. I detached the intake pipe connecting the air filter housing to the turbocharger. I believe that the turbo has taken in an object. Opinion?
  18. These kind of leakage are not a major cause for worry. You should be worried about rust and fissures.
  19. I am certain that my karate master was one of the proprietors of the establishment. That happened many years ago and I have no means of contacting him since he has retired. I recall the instances when he used to arrive to the dojo in that particular vehicle. Only students observing and appreciating.
  20. The price of $8300 for front air struts is exorbitant and constitutes blatant exploitation. You have the option to have the task completed by any privately-owned store for a cost that is between one-eighth and one-fourth of the original price. I have come across reports and corrections about timing chains in the price range of $4,000 to $8,000. I had the lower control arms replaced on our 2010 sport vehicle for a total cost of $473 at a nearby specialised repair shop for Land Rover vehicles. Do not lose hope due to their exorbitant and outrageous prices.
  21. Pleasant. Safelite informed me that they were unable to get the windscreen at a price lower than what the dealer had quoted me. The amount is around $2400, as far as I can remember.
  22. I have performed this task perhaps six times using 16v 190Es. I believe you possess an understanding of my sentiment, nevertheless, I have never had any feelings of remorse over the purchase or possession of any of those items. 🆒 Indeed, the only purchases I feel remorseful about are the ones I choose not to make!
