What have you bought for your Zed this week?

[t-tony]

A purchase this week, not just for my Z but for the oil burner and Shed too.

Pardon our interruption...

My old shop vacuum is showing it’s age but also I’m trying to make some space in the Shed for 2 cars as winter is creeping up on us. The old unit may have to live in the garden shed.

Tony.

ps. Bought direct from Ryobi for £83.00.

well… not FOR my Z… but continuing my ripMyPocketsBay shopping saga, imagine my surprise when I saw that there was an exact copy of my car sold as a “dealer edition” scale model… i had to have this.
and so I did.

A new old garage, Looks well tatty but with some work it will be dry undercover storage for the z3. And a replacement door for a fiver off of ebay.

 

[t-tony]

You tell me!

Tony.

ps. Nothing to do with the odd wheels.

Not seen those sill decals before (on your E89 anyway)......but then again I am not very observant

Can’t see anything, it’s too dark

Had to visit the @spurs fan in a coupe Zortopsy room for a replacement (slightly less rusty) wing mirror after mine decided it had rusted enough. I dare not try to fold the other one. Nice to know that they can be replaced without taking the door card off…I don’t want to open that can of worms just yet.

Seat belt guide supports ...mine aren't broken but like the idea of combined strength in the bracket to (hopefully) prevent future damage (to the guide).

If your seat belt guide is broken, its a common issue with the BMW Z3, then here is your fix. this is a simple solution which requires no tool to fit, these belt guide sliders do exactly that, they simply slide on (see pics).

Can you get those on without it already being broken?

 

[Brian James]

Yes as I understand they just clip over the brackets

I was going to post that I ordered this online:

But tried to use my card and had no balance because ***she*** ordered this totally useless item early in the morning…

just because we are installing new floors (that I still think is a bad idea…)

so I will have to wait until next month….

Sorry guys, just needed a shoulder to cry on…

Is that exhaust for an m43 ? I have struggled to find anything ‘off the shelf’ for an m43…I appreciate you are in Greece . Also £500 for a vacuum cleaner !!!

I asked them and they said that it is indeed an m43 compatible and immediately available.
Lets hope that it will still be on December.
As for the vacuum, I had a small stroke when she told me, but she is 20 years younger and 60 kilos lighter than me, so I guess its a price I have to pay….

Crows feet spanner’s. Torquing time. Rear end and to remove O2 sensor from the old exhaust.

I'm hoping it's just the module on mine that is faulty but at least I now have a spare pump. The modules going bad is a fairly common problem on cars of a certain age.

Just to add a comment on this you can remove the module and still drive the car .
If your module is faulty and lights on dash you can unplug the multiplug remove the 4 bolts and remove the module from the pump and the car won't know the difference if it already doesn't work ( no need to split open hydraulic side unless pump faulty.
