Thank you! Ordering parking brake/shoe kit will update after install. They are definitely old but appeared functional. The arm behind the shoes that extends back and forth via cable is not seized on either side. If no improvement I’ll replace the...
My transfer box was the same on rear output. I did the bearing in situ, removed the cross member as well... Put it all back together.... It was still same 🤷 that was 5yr ago and it's still the same and no worse 🤯

If there is a blanking cap on the new battery where the breather pipe should connect, it needs to be removed and the breather pipe fitted, if it cannot be fitted, then leave the cap out, otherwise there can be a build-up of gas pressure inside...

Hello and welcome :)
as yours is a 2002 year bmw inpa software should work its a free down load but you need a cable to run it there are companys on line that will sell you the right cable and soft ware for about £80 and you get tech backup.

Either the cables are stretched, the shoes are worn or badly adjusted and also the backing plates eventually fold in towards the disks and give scratching sound with low speed manœuvres.
My advice would be to get into the rear disk/drums and...
New side vents arrived so gave them the colour coding treatment.
Finally my extra rattle cans arrived in preparation for repainting the scabby roof. Mean while iv turned my attention to a few scabby bits of body work starting with my os rear...
+1.
Car was throwing a fault. The free EAS Unlock software from Storey Wilson might help but it is usually the connector behind the A post or a dodgy heoght sensor, as above.

Never seen more than 24 knocking about.
Ps...I know they fib.
I actually saw 28.2 but the missis wasn't quick enough with the camera.
Probably same as what my old Green P38 was doing . . . .intermittent contacts in the plug for the motors. Replaced a few of the contacts and all working fine now. £9.40 on eBay incl. postage.
Well they say problems come in threes... I identified some resonance through the OS engine mount, not a big issue to change so I ordered one with new bolts & planned to do it this coming Saturday. In the meantime, the AC compressor control valve...
