Hi All,
Had a Z4 previously and just purchased my first Z3 (2000 2.8l). Already love the car - got a couple of things I'd like to sort starting with the loose gear shift and stiff accelerator. Any tips warmly accepted.
Thanks,
Martin

Hi and welcome from London, I just changed my throttle cable 15 minute job put plenty of 3in1 oil down the new cable before you fit. My old cable looked fine but the cable is plastic coated and that wears and creates a dust inside that I assume stiffens it up.
