Thanks, I had already checked out your write up and ordered it today so will fit it tomorrow, have no idea of the condition of my filter as I've not had it out yet.

Well Sunday I was accelerating up a hill off a roundabout and the rpm got to 4k and just stopped I very quickly backed off then throttled again and it carried on as normal, I though that's weird so dropped my wife off at home and popped to work and thought I'd blank off my EGR and clean my MAF...

15 mins to get it out and 10 to get It back in. I watched a you tube video before hand that told me what I needed to remove to get it out. Here's the vid I watched, it gives you an idea of what to do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICSWPnoGyXQ

Thanks guy's Your never going to please everyone but to me it now looks great dont get me wrong it look ok before but I've never been a fan of all black wheels.

Nice one thanks, mines a TD6 but I should imagine it will be very similar.

After finding out what the whole under pigeon thing was all about after getting a remark on introductory post a few days ago you'll be glad to know the faults have been rectified. I was always planing on putting these little things right anyway, after picking up the car Wednesday night I had...

Sorry I'm afraid not I've only ever stripped the BMW one down, done it so many times now could do it with my eyes closed.

Whats that?

Took a look at mine on the ramp last night and it has the newer style shaft fitted. So I'm all good there thankfully.

Mine must on diff No 6 by now then.

Ive done this to a fair few BMW's with great results in the past and seeing as it's basically the same cluster so thought I'd give it a go. Here's how it looked before I started: a few during shots: the problem stems from these rubber pieces, you can see where they have become indented...

That's very good of you I'll pm you, Im in Hertfordshire too so I could probably collect no problem.

Your a star. How much?

Hi all, I noticed when I was looking over my L322 when I picked it up the other night that the stick in the expansion bottle is missing, it's supposed to sit on the little white float in the bottle then go up through a loop/guide and stick out the top when the cap is off. You cant buy the...

Im a fan of the silver parts nice contrast, that's how it left the factory according to the original sale invoice

Great news, I'll get some oil and a filter ordered up as its done 9k since the rebuild so I'll change it now and I will know where I stand. Im guessing It's not the same box as in the X5 then like the engine?

Ok thanks for the heads up, It had a major gearbox rebuild last year at a cost of over 2k so hopefully with regular oil changes I can prolong it's life a bit.

Then that's what I'll do, I'll get it put back to standard. Thanks For the info.

I see, I was informed by the last owner my L322 has been remapped is it best I get it removed and put back to standard as I'm not fussed if its slower to be fair it's not a racing car?

Same as the X5 boxes then really, Ive repaired a few of them now and without removing the box just removing the valve chest.
