    So I have been battling this weird issue with the car (2001 330i 5sp) since I purchased back in 2019. Whenever the car warms up, or shut off and drive for about 20-30 minutes, it will have a random power surge at around 2800-3200 rpm. After this power surge the throttle response gets really...

  6. Engine Swaps
    Recently I’ve been looking around at different motor swaps to do but wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on different motors. I am in no rush for this swap as the current motor in the car is fine but would like to slowly build a motor on the side. I have a fairly good size budget and want to...

    Alright, I recently switched over to the dark side and picked myself up an 04’ 325i (with manual trans) for cheap and I’ve been fairly happy so far, just trying to patch up the oil and coolant seeping from every orafice. But after driving for a week I’ve found myself looking for a little more...

    Hey guys, I have an 01 325Ci vert with 133k miles, and I want to get more power out of it. I want to keep the car for a long time and invest some money into it to restoration level and a bit of performance, but I am always questioning if I would think if it's worth it in the future (as I love my...

    Hi! I really need some help. I've got a 2005MY 320D, which, about a month ago wouldn't start. I towed it to my local BMW workshop to have the problem identified, and after a while they told me that the pre-supply fuel pump was faulty and needed replacing. Being young and a student, naturally I...

    Hi there ! I have a 2004 BMW 330CI with a lot of options BUT power folding mirros, which to me seems pretty important (I often have to park in tight spaces). I've been checking power folding mirror prices on ebay for a few days now and they are pretty expensive. So I asked myself : is it...

    Besides intake, gearing, suspension, wheels, and exhaust, is there anything that would give my 325i sedan any more power? Please don't say "Just buy a 330" I have a fairly large budget for this.

    Hi, I recently purchased a 2002 BMW 325i manual transmission car and I was wondering if the best power steering fluid for the car is: "ATF Dextron III" I've looked around the forums and just wanted to make sure this one is right for my car. Also: is it okay to just add this in with the...

    Hello All, This will be my first post on this site. I recently purchased a 2005 e46 for my wife. She was a little neglected but thankfully not abused, and with only 80k, I felt she was worth the investment. I've gone through pretty much the whole car but the passenger mirror has stumped me. I...
