  1. 5 Series
    Hey everyone! I have a BMW E60 with the basic sound package. I have heard that all BMWs from 2006 ish use the same door speakers for all models and that you can buy Harman Kardon speakers from newer models and just plug and play in the older models. Is this true? If so, what are the best...

  3. 7 Series - E65 / E66 (2002 - 2008)
    Hello everyone my audio system on a 750Li 2006 has been pretty bad ever since I bought it used. At low or high volume , I hear crackling and popping from pretty much everywhere. Definitely not quality audio. I’m thinking of upgrading the entire audio system and was wondering if anyone has...
  4. E36/7 Z3 (1996-2002)
    About a year ago I purchased a 50k mi. 1999 2.8 z3 roadster (5-speed) and I love almost everything about the car except for the sound. It really just sounds like a big vacuum cleaner until you get past 4k RPM and you can barely start to hear the engine but even then it sounds meh. I don't want...
  5. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    2008 528i N52 As the title says I'm interested in making my exhaust a bit louder than it currently is. About 5 months ago I went ahead and did a muffler delete. Have to say was shocked how just removing the muffler made it Pop and Burble. Love how it sounds as well. After a few months of...

    Hello! First-time poster here. As my title describes, I have a 2015 F32, and I bought it around a month or 2 ago from a dealership. I know about the startup chime and have no problem with it. But recently, I started hearing a thumping noise that's rhythmical, like an error sound on startup...
  9. E90/E91/E92/E93 (2006 - 2013)
    My E92 335is with DCT makes a weird flutter/tick/fart noise on idle and when given revs. I sound isn't coming from the engine bay or exhaust. Almost sounds like it's coming from underneath the car near the downpipe area. It doesn't sound like a wastegate rattle but also not like anything I've...

  12. Car Navigation, Audio & Electronics
    It was the "hd" option that had to be disabled. Something about the feature being glitched from factory I have had this issue since I bought the car used. The radio stations I show all work where this car is located so I know it has to do with the car itself Anyone have any ideas?
  13. E36 (1991 - 1999)
    Hello All, I am having problems with getting my Subwoofer to sound right. First I tried an 8" JBL Stage, Mounted on a board, fixed into the centre pocket hole in the rear seat, removing the Plastic box. Just sounded flat, when a bass note hits, it just vibrates, I'm guessing the air is just...

    Hello fellow Bimmers, I come here to this group to share my experience with Bimmer-Tech sound system products that I recently bought for my X3 G01.

  16. E36 (1991 - 1999)
    My e36 is making a high-pitched squeaking sound at idle. It seems to go away at higher RPM's (or I can't hear it over the engine noise). It also seems to go away when the engine has been running for quite a while. The car seems to drive fine, and there are no lights or codes. Alternator...
