Hello, for some time now I have also been affected by the water pipe problem. My carriage has now more than 300K on the hump. There is the possibility, i.e. the danger, that the previous owner has already installed a telescope pipe. Now, since I do not see it, for a pipe, which disappears under the suction bridge, and only because it shines and co. 100 Euro to pay the Americans, and 300 Euro for a pipe from the east, I created the pipe myself. I am also I am sure that my creation is safer than a pipe, which is fitted with thread on both sides. In addition, in contrast to the addressed pipes, I have not rejuvenated / reduced the inner diameter, but extended it in the middle range. (Alu socket approx. 240 mm) Ø 40mm inner diameter and 36 mm, wall thickness 2 mm. Since the original tube has a Ø 35 mm, and the socket has an inner diameter of 36 mm, and 1 mm unfortunately are not little in this case, I have on my tube, a So the tube sits in the sleeve with very little play, and on the one hand there will also be better hold for the 2k glue. Finally, I will cover the one side, the old cooling hose for safety. With the hose it will become really tight under the cover, but will go. On the front side, where the origin of the evil lies, I will be able to put the seal, also liquid-proof. I will start the operation next week. I intend to do the procedure without expanding the water pump. Until then, I am very grateful for any tips and co. Perhaps one or the other has a better idea or maybe “criticism” regarding my approach. I am also grateful for all the instructions that have been published in the Net so far. Greeting John

Moin Dear People, I’ve got a problem with my 6 under load the MKL goes on and he’s got a power loss. Was just reading out and the workshop said they were out there, there have to be specialists there… in the hope to get good answers and help here I upload the pictures of the error protocol. How do I best do that? Which costs are probably waiting for me? Can I do this myself? I trust myself and have the opportunity to do it myself. it to drive into a rental workshop I thank you very much and hope for many good suggestions and tips

Moin, the connected app requires location access, etc. I find that totally outrageous. Is there a way to remotely operate the pre-heating without revealing all the data? The display key hardly reaches the driveway… Thanks & Greeting Timo

Hello everybody, Is there a way to adjust the passenger exterior mirror individually in inclination in the kerb automatic? In my 840s there is only the possibility between “out of the extreme angle of inclination”. I know a little different in the E89/E9x series; as better solved. This mirror could not be adjusted, but was perfect in view of the angle of inclination, since both kerb and the one behind the vehicle was still visible. Is there a more simple solution here, instead of having to select the driver profile manually and in the stand? Is it possible that the 8-inch driver often doesn’t accept my driver profile when I open the car with the AppleWatch and start with the mobile phone, but I am “guest” on the road, even though I am the only vehicle user. (Of course I don’t carry the vehicle key in this case).

Hello, I ordered these rims brand new ORIGINAL BMW Online. About a rim dealer. My question is if the scratches are normal to this extent? I found something in the forum, but it didn’t look so “heavy”. Visually, I don’t care. I’m more concerned about whether the whole safety technical effect is any more? Or if the rims break faster? They are mounted on a BMW F06 xDrive. All-weather tyres are winter and summer. Thanks in advance and greetings

Car is idle, MKL went on. I deleted the errors, but they came again. The two pictures with the values were in standstill about 750u/min. Unfortunately, I am absolutely not familiar. I hope for help. Someone known has read it out to me quickly with the program. I read the values via OBD2 and a mobile phone app. Vehicle: BMW F13 650i XDrive 2013 It already has the Tu engine .

I would like to install distance discs and wonder which width is useful and possible in the current setup (20 inch / runflat). At the same time I think about changing from Runflat to normal tires and wondering if such a change has to be different due to the automatically slightly larger wheel circumference of non-run flat. Who can help?

Hello, I have been driving an 840d Coupe for over 4 years and would like to buy a new car in the near future. I am interested in an M850i Gran Coupé. However, I have concerns about whether I can cope with it in everyday life, since the vehicle is 5.08 meters long. This makes it bigger than the current 5 or some 7s in the past. With the normal 8er Coupé I get along – just like that – but avoid driving in car parks for example. Sometimes however, I let I would therefore be very happy about a few honest contributions to the everyday fitness of the 8 Gran Coupé. Thank you very much!

Greetings. I bought a 630 E63, Bj2006 with engine damage. The engine is completely destroyed. Now I am looking for a replacement engine. I would like to install a complete engine. Now the question arises: Can I install all the N52B30 without changing the ECU? Or does anyone know the codes that would fit without making changes to the wire harness or control units? I have once attached the 2 stickers that I found. Thanks and G Rüße, Björn

Good day, I have a problem with my bmw.. It’s a 650i e63. VSD, water pipe and various seals and parts have already been made. Today when I wanted to take it out he smokes extremely (white), so water, starts harder and the idle is uneven. Engine control people is also on and he loses cooling water, however, does not drip, but obviously burns it. I still hang a video in idle. I would look forward to your diagnoses at first glance. what on the cylinder head .. Sincerely Tom
