Nice looking motor mate.

Hi Guys......On my 2009 X5 3.0d, i am running 19" wheels with the 255 front and 285 rear (non run flats) However im a little confused with what is the correct pressures that are written on the door pillar for my particular setup. Could someone with more knowledge tell me what are the correct pr...

So the other day i decided to ditch my bridgestone run flats in favor of standard tyres.  And the ride has improved a lot.  I also had the 4 wheel alignment done which was all good. But....the following day i noticed that at about 60mph i was getting a steering wheel wobble. I then thought, why did ...

Cheers Wipeout, i will get it checked.

Hi X5SPORT........

If that was the case (small gas leak) how would that be fixed?
Sorry for my ignorance

***UPDATE*** (read my 1st post) Well i ordered a used compressor for my 2009 x5 3.0D.  But...... I decided to take to another garage (again not BMW) to have the new compressor fitted, but after an hour or so the garage rang me and said "are you sure that you had it re-gassed" i said yes it...

Hi Ricky......Yes apparently cleaned the system and checked for leaks, and there was power going to it. So its looking like a new compressor is needed :( Also the one you listed is for a SD one, mine is just a D (single turbo) although i dont know if they are the same or not. I will have to do some ...

Hi Guys.....im in need of some advice please. I have a E70 2009 X5 MSPORT 30.D.    I noticed a couple of months ago that the air con seemed to have stopped working, so i thought i would wait until the summer months before i get it sorted. Anyway, i presumed it needed just re-gassing, so i booked it ...

Hi guys....just need something clearing up. Basically I'm about to change my run flats for normal tyres as I've heard the ride is better...plus they are less expensive. I've got a 2009 3.0d msport. My tyre sizes are...255/50/19 on the front. And the rears are 285/45/19. At the moment the Bridgestone...

Hi....im currently looking at buying front and rear brake pads for my 2009 E70 3.0D MSPORT X5. When i enquired at euro car parts, they asked me what my rear brake diameter was !!!! Well i aint got a clue......do they normally ask this? All i know is i have 19" wheels with the 285 tyres on the r...

Sorry you are right x5sport.....the ones i were offered were 20"  :-[  So no good to me. And thanks Sid......but im a bit lost with all this if im honest.......I basically love the look of the big wide tyres on the rear of some x5's ie the 315 tyres. I sometimes think the 19" wheels with t...

Hi.....Sorry if im hyjacking the thread....But you guys seem to know what you are talking about. Ive got a 2009 E70 with the 223 alloys on. With 255/50/19 on the front with 285/19 on the rear. My question is.....Would it be possible to fit the larger 315 rear tyres on those wheels.....Its just that ...

Thanks squeaky,  How much did you pay, and are we talking an hours labour for a mech?

Cheers

Hi......I have a 2009 E70 3.0d sport. I just got back from the school run and noticed a hissing noise coming from what I thought was the nsr tyre. I left it a while and then checked again and the tyre was fine, which then led me to believe it was the rear air suspension. Basically after 15 mins or s...

Just thought id add......my 2009 car got this message today....i turned the car off and started a few seconds later and its gone. Ive also had transmission failure appear during the winter months. Once again it cleared after a restart. And i have not had that message during this summer....maybe cos ...
