    creaking sound on a 5 series

    Re: creaking sound on a 5 series I had the same door squeaking issue with my previous E39. When I looked to the Net for answer, I found out about the 3M Squeak Reduction aka Anti-Friction Tape, and even found a step-by-step DIY procedure to apply the tape. I thought I found it here in BMW-SG...

    Re: MP3 capability on the e60? I can confirm that the 523 LCI can play CD MP3 through the single-slot CD drive on the centre console.

    FS: BMW Roof rack

    I have the BMW Roof rack for sale at $150. It definitely fits E39 and E46. I was informed it could also fit E90 since there are similar roof inserts (can try without obligation). The photo below shows the roof rack with the bike lift. Please note that I'm selling only the roof rack. If you are...

    To Buy or not to buy (e90 320 vs IS250)

    Re: To Buy or not to buy (e90 320 vs IS250) IMO, your message best sums up this thread. When someone wants to buy a car, there are 1001 reasons unique to him only. For me, my latest car is a love-at-first-sight (with some additional research). It's neither a BMW nor a Lexus. I don't care...

    Taste of IS250

    Re: Taste of IS250 I was also there yesterday to look at it. It came with a gated gearbox (if this is the right term), whereby you need to move left-right, up-down just to switch from P to D. Is there any particular advantage to such a gearbox? I've never liked it when I rented a Merc C class...

    ABS Indicator

    Hi, After you have stepped on the brakes hard, and the ABS kicks in (felt through the pedal vibration), does the ABS indicator on the dashboard light up? I just changed my brake discs+pads, and I don't see the ABS light up while braking. I can't remember if it did in the past either. Thanks

    Scratches

    For my case, it was clearly an act by a vandal with a key. Certain part was quite deep, but may not be up to the primer. Didn't take note because it was at night when I saw it and was so desperate to quickly rectify it. Anyway, I could offer both you and nesta a try on a small part to see the...

    Scratches

    I've used Meguiar's Scratch X on a Paprika Orange Nissan March before. The scratch was more than 30 cm long, streching over both right hand side doors. It was very effective for this case. Good luck.
