Here is my story about my Warrantywise Warranty or lack of it! The other day upon arriving at work there was a hissing noise coming from the front offside wheel. Tyre, I thought initially, but alas it was the air bag for the suspension. Still only 19 days into my Warrantywise warranty I was afraid ...

Can anyone recommend an LPG installer in Scotland or northern England? The reason I bought the V8 beast was to convert her to LPG but there seems to be very few reviews or recommendations online regarding conversions in Scotland. Having read Raj's posts with his beast I would be willing to drive ...

A quick update I had my car in at my local BMW specialist and he gave it a clean bill of health! Yippee!! I have to say though, since cleaning out the gunk and replacing the membranes as a precaution, the white smoke, which I presume now is only condensation, has not been anywhere near as prevalent ...

Booked in to Indy on Thursday morning so will let you all know.

Thanks Raj for the comment, I'm hoping it is just the same as  yours and all is well!

Hi all Thought I'd introduce myself here as I have already posted and received some good advice! My 3rd venture into Beemer world, my first 325 coupe F plate in 1999, didn't end well! Then I purchased a 530d Msport 2003 in silver in 2005, great car! I sold that to make way for a V70 T5 as my dog was ...

Just drove the 80 miles back and let her idle on the driveway. Within 3 mins small plooms of off white blueish smoke from the near side tailpipe.

Thanks for the links to other threads, interesting reading. Just a quick update, oil filler cap is clean as a whistle, coolant is about halfway to two thirds full when cold. On starting her up this morning no smoke. Got stuck in roadworks near my house and there was a little white out of both ...

Thanks, I'll check the oil and other levels first thing in the morning. I'm finding this a bit odd as it was fully serviced and mot'd on the 4/9/13. I don't seem to be getting any smoke when on motorway journeys, I've driven nearly 600 miles in the last two weeks but only seem to get the smoke when ...

Hello, can anyone help? My X5 puts out white smoke on idle, more when its cold from start up but continues to do so after a 20-30 min run. She doesnt smoke initially, but then does - more when the engine is revved. The white smoke is like dry ice, I had noticed a blue tinge the day before but that ...

Hello there, after many unsuccessful attempts to pair my iPhone 4 to the telephone whilst following the instructions according to the BMW handbook and several other ideas on this forum, this finally worked for me: Press the phone button on the centre arm rest Turn ignition to position 1 whilst ...
