Hi, Can any of you guys recommend an internet site that I can purchase parts for my BMW e46 body? I'm actually looking for a radiator assembly and an auxilliary fan. Thanks much |

I'd appreciate any suggestions here please: 2004 325 xi, manual trans, with a low frequency rumbling noise that I hear at idle. At times it seems to be transmitted from front to back along the driver's side under the cabin. Dealer checked it out, replaced two pulleys and belts, but no effect. Noise stops the instant the engine is turned off, but does not change with increased revs. On occasion the car will go a while without making the noise. Thanks in advance for any ideas. -jaj |

I will be purchasing a CPO 2006 330i this weekend and am considering purchasing the $1800 maintenance program to cover wear items like brake pads, oil changes etc. through the CPO warranty (6 years/100,000 mi. total). There are 35k miles on the car and it has been in service for 3 years already, so basically the plan would cover me for 2 years and roughly 25,000 mi/yr (about $900/yr). I don't really see how this would be worth it, but I am hoping to gather some empirical evidence as to annual routine maintenance costs from e90 3-series. I love to do maintenance on my own vehicles, but I find I don't really have time any more. Thanks. |
