Hello guys, still hunting my problem with vibration at 80km/h (50MPH). I changed my tires and went for an alignment, didn't help tho. The vibrations begins at exactly 80km/h, but the weird thing is, that I think it also depends on the road am driving at, because sometimes it vibrations more...

Hi I’m trying to install a mfactory helical diff in my 325ci I bought the mfactory shim kit but I can’t seem to get my backlash tight enough even when using all the shims the backlash is wayyy to large. Also when I use all the shims it leaves no room for the cclip anyways. iv been tryna rebuild...

Hello, I have recently acquired a e46 325i 2002 model and have noticed that when turning the steering wheel there is a certain point where there is a lot of friction and a rubber squeaking sound is produced, once you past that point it makes the same sound and same friction when crossing the...

I have 2004 330i ZHP 6spd, and I am thinking about doing an M3 rear end swap. Like what will I all need? how long did it take? Can I use my current driveshaft? any fitment issues? and in general, if there are any pointers from someone that has done it before. Thanks.

I am looking at a 325i that was in the process of becoming a track/drift car. The guy states the car ran fine but had a problem with the transponder, so he flashed the ecu and deleted the ews. However, now the car can't accelerate. He says it turns on and idles fine but the gas peddle is...

Hi everyone, it's my first post on this forum. I replaced my stock muffler with a glasspack a few months ago, and I'm thinking of getting the resonator removed as well to give the sound a little bit more bite and aggression. Problem is, the drone can be bad at some speeds and I'm wondering if...

Hello everyone, first timer here. I currently have a 2001 316i with ~300000kms which, albeit fun to drive, seems to me as lacking in power. I am somewhat mechanically inclined but still inexperienced, so I looked online and found some mechanics who will swap an engine from a 320i for around...

Hey guys, I am pretty new to CAI mods even though in some situations it is considered a pretty standard/beginner mod. Anyway my question is what would be a nice budget friendly cold air intake. I know it doesn't really show any exponential values of performance, but I do love the throatier sound...

I just got a new battery on my 01' 330ci and the shop is saying they had to do a re program to let the car know that there is a new battery so the alternater etc works properly... Is this true because i have had batteries installed before where this did not have to be done. Anyone?? Thx

1) Will a set of OE LED tail lights from an '04 M3 (Coupe) be a plug-n-play fit in my 2002 M3 (Coupe) or is there some extra step/s that I need to take to get them to work? 2) From doing tons of track events, I know how the E46 M3 LEDs light up when the driver really stands hard on the binders...

I drive an '05 e46 coupe. I noticed the other day that my headlight was flickering a little bit, then it proceeded to go out entirely shortly thereafter. I noticed that sometimes, when I started up the car that the headlight would turn back on and stay on for a little while. I decided that I...

All righty, well my dad unfortunately was borrowing my 00' 328Ci and ran smack into a deer :facepalm: headlights, hood, fenders and grille all smashed up. I have scoured the forums and most of my questions were answered, except a couple. My questions for the E46Fanatics fanatics, are: 1. Can...
