Hello, i have been trying to solve this issue for a few days, reading the Bentley manual and scowering through forums but have not crashed in to a solution. The car in question, a 2000 330xi wagon, automatic, has been sitting for five weeks, started every second week. Now, at the latest start...

Hello everyone, my 2001 bmw e46 touring has been having a issue lately with the rear glass. For a while it would open randomly when the car was parked but now it does not open at all. if anyone has any info or knows how to fix the problem I would really appreciate it.

I have an OEM iPod interface that currently connects to a 30 pin cord. I was wondering if anyone had tried using an adaptor from the 30pin to lightning or 30 pin to aux and if it works. Looking to play music off my phone and wondering which of the options works for newer gen iphones.

Doing some work on the car and trying to install an aux cord when I found this adapter behind the radio. There was a cord running from the “radio” port to the back of the radio. Has anyone seen these before and how does the “iPod” port work? Thanks for any help.

So I'm going to check out an '03 325i wagon in the next couple days which is a car I've had my eye on for a while (I'm glad I was able to find this community first!). I was just wondering if you guys had some tips for what to look for and what to watch out for before buying. In addition, the...

Hello forum. I recently purchased my first BMW automobile (already had an r1150gs). The 2001 325i wagon I bought has just over 200k miles on it but seems like it's been well maintained so I'm looking forward to seeing how long I can make it last and plan on being on here alot to take advantage...

Looking for an OEM antenna mast for my 2003 325 xi sport wagon. Anyone have one or know where I can source one?

I'm thinking about taking my touring to an autocross next weekend. I used to do this a bunch, but the classing has changed since I stopped paying attention. Based on my reading of the rule book, would my touring be in STR, the same class and Miata and S2000? That seems like an uphill battle...

Hey all, I am not really sure if that is appreciated, so please let me know if I should change anything in this post. I am not affiliated with the link below, I am just following this guy because he does awesome work. I am actually a customer of him and pay with hard dollars for his services...

I have an '00 323i wagon, 5mt, sport trim and have sourced an M54B30 from a ZHP car that I am preparing to swap. This will replace an M52TUB25 so I'll be merging wiring across three ECU versions and I'll end up running a stock tune on MS43. The car is a daily driver but also an HPDE trainer...

Hey Fellas, after procrastinating for a long long time I am finally making a thread here. Got my hands on me wagon last December and love the damn thing. I also own an e46 M3 and I know this will be blasphemous to some, but I have more fun in my wagon :woot: Wagon been solid apart from a few...

Hi, I am new to this forum. I just purchased a 2003 325i Touring. I have fallen in love with the car and it is my goal to take it from good condition to excellent. There are many things I would like to fix/replace/restore on the car. One of those items is the rear hatch. The first or second...

Hi all. I'm looking for Euro/clear lights for our pre-facelift touring. I'm looking for a full set, or just the rears (it's easy and cheap to get the front and side lights for a sedan). Let me know what you have and how much you want, shipped to BC Canada, postal code v0n2m2. Thanks

So I have a new-to-me 2001 328i sport wagon that needs at a minimum shocks and struts. I have read a lot of whats on here to be had and I have come to the conclusion that for me, maintaining stock ride height and feel, bilsteins B4 series all around are my answer. Not interested in performance...

Sarcasm.... So I just noticed one of the bolts is gone from the passenger side strut on my 2002 325xi touring. Looked at a few diagrams and tutorials... seems like the whole assembly has to come out to get to the strut mounting plate. Is that correct? If the whole thing needs to come out...

Good morning guys! I finally got around to making a e46fanatics account for my 2003 steel gray 325XiT. I purchased this car back in april from a guy with 130k on the clock for 4100$. I currently now have 151k and plenty of maintenance don in between. Looking forward to picking your brains if I...

I have a 2003 325ti, I'm planning on purchasing the CC Racing turbo kit for it, I'm gonna run it at about 6psi to minimize engine modifications. Kind of curious if anyone has attempted this yet and how it worked out for them?

I'm thinking about putting the cx racing turbo on my 2003 325ti, I was only planning on running it at about 6psi to minimize engine modifications. Not sure if I would need to upgrade the injectors or not.. Has any one done this before?
