Re: 2.0D X3 2007 DDE fault light and limp mode
[quote="Burf101"] Hi, it's a 57 plate and its on 10k miles,[/quote] Only 10k miles on a 10 year old car, I thought mine was low @58k. If you haven't done the swirl flap blanks do that at the same time. I would also check the hidden computer to check your car is reaching +80c on a drive. Th...

Re: Halogen to Xenon
The wiring loom is unavailable from anywhere in the world, I know as had 12 worldwide dealers with my money as they all said they could get it but after 3 months they had all refunded me with an apology that they could not get it.

Re: BMW E53 Retrofit DAB kit
I fitted one to my X3 and it is very good quality. The only weakness is the flimsy aerial.
