New keys can be had from main dealer with the chassis number. They come from Germany so may well be cheaper for you than the UK now.

Those two halves come apart. Pretty sure I had mine apart when I had the dash out. I cannot recall what it looks like now but maybe the shafts come out from the centre?

It is on all the time. Unplug it if your fob is broken. Yours will be the GEMS engine (Lucas) and is more integrated with the BECM than the diesel or the THOR.

Probably the RF receiver has been unplugged - under the rear passenger shelf on the driver's side. Dancing locks could be RF interference, a sticky rod in the door or a loose wire somewhere. You need gen 3 receiver or Brain's 2 fob trick. After that, unlock the car with the key. Press fob to...

You need a second person to waggle the steering wheel and obviously you need the wheel not to move or you'll be a spline or so out when reconnected and it won't be straight. Other than that it makes getting to that back bolt a lot easier.

That's what confused me.

I don't recall having to touch the power steering? There's the bolt holding the steering shaft if you take that out?

They should instantaneously cook any rabbits in the way.

gearbox should be able to take at least 380 nm. The drive shafts are already heavy duty. Theoretically it probably could take it. M51 engines are tuned up a lot on the bimmer forums. Ask @stu

Last time I needed something like that I spoke to Clutch fix in Huddersfield. They make them from scratch and make racing ones so can do high temperature ones.

Problem with current hydrogen cars is that you need something like a v8 to make up for the lack of power conpared to petrol.

I would certainly take the tuning box out before I did anything else.

With a torque wrench on the 32 mm hub-nut you should be able to ease the wheel slowly round with about 110 nm. VCU failure also shows as scrubbing on outside edges of the tyres.

Mine is still on the original bulbs and they seem fine to me. I believe some people use Nightbreakers.

Fitted Engine Guard to my P38A oil burner. Bolted the temperature sensor to the head. It takes a lot longer than the coolant needle to reach a steady temperature but seems to sit between 80C and 90C, admittedly on the inlet side. Maybe I should have put it the exhaust side, although I am...

Is that not dot 5?

I use Autoaid on @Dopey 's advice. Very reasonable although I have never actually used the service.

You need to be very gentle with that tensioner when slackening off the belt. They're known to crack though. I went Land Rover because I had heard of pattern parts failing within 3 years. Cannot recall when mine went on now but it was longer than that. @Rick-the-Pick went through about 3 of them.

Driving like the Dukes to avoid the Fuzz?

I'm spotting a pattern!
