    I'm refreshing my the rear deck (parcel shelf) on my e46 sedan right now. I know most people opt to redye. I have seen the outcome and wasn't happy with that so have decided to remove the old fabric and reupholster it properly. The fabric is very difficult to remove so i was wondering if...

    Hi guys, I'd like to change my sit belts, and I found some in the aftermarket on facebook but the cheapest ones I found are for a touring and I have a sedan my question is...

Suddenly my passenger side wiper collided with the driver's side wiper causing it to break my wiper plade and me needing new pants as I thought a rock blew my window apart because of the sound it made. I took it apart...

    So, it's in great shape, and I paid very little for it, I'm quite happy with it. The previous owner was an actual little old lady who mostly drove around suburbs. Engine was factory recalled with 50K miles, now it's at 161K and running well. The good: no leaks! nothing is dripping anywhere, the...

    Hey guys! Im having an issue with too much resonance due to the bass in the rear in my 2003 sedan. I was wondering if anyone has ever done something against it. I was thinking about taking apart the rear hat rack and putting some foam between the metal and the blue fabric part. Im open to all...

    Hello all, I've currently got a Eonon head unit installed in my E46 and naturally have relocated the climate control to the bottom storage tray. I've had it in for maybe 6 months now and the climate control has been pretty good without any bracket holding it in place. Recently however its been...

    Hello guys !! I'm trying to do M3/Coupe front end on a sedan, I heard that sedan and coupe pre-face light housing are the same, only the trim with "plexiglas" are different, the blinker from sedan wouldn't fit so I need a new one, but the biggest problem are the fenders, coupe fenders are I...

    Hello guys ! This is my E46 1999 323i, with swapped motor ( stock 320i ). I bought it for 1200 USD and the car was a definition of pain. Leaking oil like crazy, overheating, running on 2-3 pistons. Crazy expierence I had with this car, but I still love it. I swapped it because my old m52b20...

When I turn the car on all 4 speakers works, then after a few seconds maybe minutes it changes to just 2 speakers working or just 1 then after a while they cut...
