Re: Info Screen change ?

My X3 30d came with the 6.5” screen and Bluetooth but no satnav.
I have recently fitted a satnav headunit with the 8.8” screen at the same time I decided to fit the half led instrument cluster 6wa.
It is a doable job but can be hair pulling at time.

Happy with the end results

Changed wheels

It is a 2011 X3 30D Msport, got a few nice extras like xenons, adaptive headlights, electric memory seats and pano-roof.

Pretty happy so far

New addition - Daihatsu Copen

Hi All, My new toy http://i63.tinypic.com/2wqy4a1.jpg The Boxster dwarfs it enough but the X3 really makes it look like a toy car. It is a 2008 '58 Daihatsu Copen with 5,650 miles from new. It was bought by my friends who are in there late 70s so hardly ever used as they have 3 other cars including ...

Problem with my 3.0sd

Hi All, I have developed a problem with my X3. A few weeks ago while driving at around 55-60mph I went to overtake and the car just felt flat and failed to accelerate. I presumed the MAP sensor and running Carly seemed to agree. I first tried cleaning with electrical contact cleaner and it seemed be...
