  • Repair costs

    Hello am new here and hope you can help me…. soon the brake pads and discs of the front axle will change. In addition, oil changes with oil filters will arrive. I ordered the pads with discs and oil, which is also approved for the vehicle. That’s why I wanted to know what the BMW workshop will require of me in terms of repair costs. thank you in advance gruss Yasin

  • BMW newcomer and questions about winter tyres at the E64 630i

    Moin, my name is René and I recently bought a 630i convertible. So far I have been on the road with the Sterngemeinde and therefore BMW is new ground for me. I have the following questions about possible winter tyres: I find the BMW 18 inch rim “M double spoke 184” quite handsome and would like to drive it in the winter. However, I find only contradictory sources online – some say only for M6 and others say mobile on all E63/E64. A BMW dealer around the corner says also only for M-Mod elle (because the computer didn’t show the rim as an accessory for my chassis number – why it doesn’t fit, but he couldn’t explain it to me). Can someone tell me why this rim should only be for M-models – is this due to another hole circle or other screws e.g. M14 instead of M12??? The basic data of the rim 8×18 ET14 should actually fit. The BMW catalog in the attached picture says the rim is not for M6 – in another overview again only for M – who kan There are also three links of the corresponding offers – here too it is partly assumed that these should only be for the M-models.http://www.ebay.de/…/172900362346?…http://www.ebay.de/…/282693945777?… (I know this would not fit the cross-section)https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/…/720542130-223-2893 Then a question about this offer:http://www.ebay.de/…/352163693069?… Despite different rim sizes on the VA and HA are mounted here around 255/40 – actually it should be 245/40 on 275/35. How can I find out if 255/40 would also be released or if someone knows if this is allowed Are there actually any tyre / rim approval lists for the BMW models available online – so for BMW original rims of course! Thank you in advance for your help. VG René

  • Fix matt lacquer?

    I’m buying an 8-piece convertible in the BMW Individual Lack Frozen Pure Grey Metalic. Unfortunately, the vehicle offered has a few stone strokes in the front area. It’s comparatively small places, but I wonder if you can cure these kinds of spots with a kind of smart repair? (NB: I don’t understand why such vehicles don’t protect from such flaws ex works with a protective foil. If I really buy the vehicle, then I’m going to buy this car. who has experience with this, or other comparable matt-lacquers?

  • Engine cleaning hard mud etc. *NOTFALL*

    Hello together, I’ve got a problem with my 6s and it all started very small.. The MKL went so much like that during the ride?? No power loss or anything else…it’s got to be easy to get rid of the engine. I can get rid of the engine engine error: 1) VANOS-magnet valve inlet camshaft mechanical clamps 2) Synchronization camshaft to KW value out of range. These two errors were shown again. So next theory: It has to be either the adjustment unit inlet NW or chain too long. So we have ordered this adjustment unit and have to change the head and/or the lid of the engine before it was at least one year ago. Chain sits tight, but the engine is full with hard slime – lt. Workshop master has not been made a change of oil for a long time. I have to say that I have changed the car for half a year and has got to get rid of it.
