Afternoon all,
I'm new to the group although I've owned my 97 2.8 Atlanta Blue widebody for the past 15 years. Generally she has been an everyday driver since ownership began ( comes in handy does the OEM hardtop during the winter months in the North West of England! ). Mileage is a reasonable 160k ( just about run in )
Recent M.O.T has been the worst ever for her ( not that bad compared to some ) but for my girl who has flown through them for years ( with sometimes just advisories against her ) it's been a catalogue of small parts needed. Untill the bit where I'm now looking to actual BMW factory for a part unless someone knows something that could avoid that bill. ( Still willing to pay, but trying to avoid remortgaging the house )
Im after the fuel pipes for the attached image of parts 1,2,3&4. Do 2nd hand parts work? Or is it just safer going with BMW OEM?
Advise please
