Look so much nicer with the wheels pushed out in the arches Andy.

What have you bought for your Zed this week?
- Thread starter bombur
- Start date
Do these spacers work with all size wheels and can they be front and back? Sorry am sure this is a stupid question! Just writing out loud lol
I believe so mate, they just slip over the hub and then bolt on the wheel with the provided extended wheel bolts. Front and rear is OK too
New Tyres for the Z3M (Goodyear Eagle F1)
Vanos and Conrod Bearing Shells for the Z4MC this weekend
Vanos for the Z3M next month
ouch !!!
Ooff! She'll run better now though mate

especially without the weight of my wallet !!!
I had 20mm on the rear of my Z3 and 14mm on the front. When I sold the Z3 I took them off and put them on my Z4.

AC top up kit for the e89. Took it from low to filled in 5 minutes and the car never left the garage. AC has gone from cold to ice cold plus enough left to check and top up the wife's daily.
Just a touch up pen. I keep finding little bits that need doing, plus the paint missing around the rear badge - now missing a bit more after I had to break into the boot at the weekend!
Ooooo I like this - does it also show if there is a leak?
New number plates for both the Zed and the GT. Don't want pulling by an enthusiastic Police officer.
Cost nearly £60 to change perfectly good plates!
Why did you change them Paul? Did I miss something?
Tony.
The 3d plates are no longer legal. initially was told if fitted before September 2021 was OK apparently not 3d plates are illegal full stop yet gell plates still OK. The digets must be all one colour/shade fines upto £1000 apparently. Just don't want to risk it.
Spot the difference competition 1st prize pat on the back
Old plates
New plates
Totally different.
That's what Stevie Wonder says anyway.

if there is not enough in the system to start it will tell you or the clutch isn't engaging etc. If there is a leak there wont be much if any refrigerant in the system so will tell you. AC systems can lose up to 12% of refrigerant per year .... apparently.
MOT which it passed with no advisories. 
Also had new thermostat, water pump & radiator fitted, cooling system flushed out etc. while it was there.

That is very nice..
Boot trim. Yawn. I guess I'll be OK to stick some m badges on now.
