I was wondering if anyone has tried adding paddles to this steering wheel, or do I need to spend a couple of hundred dollars on a new steering wheel? Also, how does the wiring go for...

    Hi I was driving my 2009 bmw 535i the other day when I decided to get on it pretty hard and all of the sudden my car shut off and the screen said it had a fuel pump malfunction. The car wouldn’t start for about 20 minutes it would just crank and start for maybe a second then it would die. When...

    All, I'm recent owner of 2014 BMW 535i, N55 motor, and have only added one upgraded part, which is a new RVG Catless Downpipe, and I also replaced the valve cover and gasket as it looked like it was leaking, and the person just tried to use some sealent to cover it. No issues with valve cover...

    I have a 1987 535i that needs a new car stereo. I recently ordered a RetroSound Grand Prix M2A, but I want to listen to SiriusXM. There isn't any way to get SXM on that unit aside from via the Bluetooth connection. I have a dumb phone and won't be upgrading to a smartphone any time soon...

    Hello all, I purchased a 2016 535i with 64k miles on it from a local BMW dealership, and it appeared to be in good shape. It now has 80k miles, and I have done oil changes on 5k mile intervals using the OEM Mann filter and Castrol 5w-40. On the last oil change, I used a Mobil 1 filter since my...

    Hi everyone. I'm asking to see if anyone would know what's going on with my car or if someone has had the same issue. I've been hearing the radiator fan kick on whenever I turn on the car and it cycles between high and low speed when the car is cold and then when the car is hot it goes full...

    So some context - I recently changed the Oil Filter Housing gasket for the N55, I loosened up the charge pipe by taking the clamp off and wiggling the charge pipe a bit freely so I can loosened up the intake manifold. I did the job and I put the charge pipe back in with the clamp. While driving...

    Started experimenting a while ago with different plugs for the my 2011 535i Stage 2+. Tried the NGK 1-step colder which were nice and cost me around $90, but then I found alternative Bosch plugs at 40% the cost of the NGK with the same performance. Let me know your thoughts and what plugs you...
