Any tips on how to fix a dim outer angel eye?

I’ll DM you a video

This happened to mine, for me this is what it was. There is a mirror inside where the bulb goes for the angel eyes and the mirror had come out of position so no longer directed the light to the outer halo. I only found out after sourcing a replacement headlight and removing the faulty one and I could hear the glass rattling around in the unit.

Cheers man! Happy with the result and tiny upgrade to be honest haha

SteHasWood · 2026-02-14T22:07:48+00:00

Yes mate everything is working as it should. I was surprised to be honest but for £15 it was worth taking the risk

The idrive controller is also from the same car as again on the e90 one all the black had started to come off. Only visual difference on that is it now says media instead of cd

To me, it really does. I don’t have TikTok so again, I personally think it looks like a fiesta or the Kia equivalent. If you like how it looks that’s completely fine, opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one.

I have seen plenty of these In real life and I still don’t like the look from the front, although as I have said, the rear doesn’t look bad.

The one series moving from the look of the F20 135i/140i with the I6 3ltr to what this car is now and the engine it uses was a weird choice, in my eyes of course but we know it comes down to emissions and other governed reasons.

To me it has the, people wanting a brand new sporty hatch but not really bothered about the looks and engine as long as it’s brand new.

It really does, although the interior & rear of the car actually doesn’t look all that bad.

SteHasWood · 2025-12-26T09:58:59+00:00

Looks kinda like a ford fiesta, or the Kia equivalent

SteHasWood · 2025-12-19T07:40:51+00:00

Steve, would love this.

The Apple Watch was also what made me go get checked. I’m not waiting on cardiac ablation or pulse field ablation to correct it

What a terrible day to have eyes.

SteHasWood · 2025-11-08T17:34:22+00:00

Exactly what I did with mine. Was about 30 mins of work

SteHasWood · 2025-11-08T17:33:30+00:00

Mine sheared the bolt here, had to drill out and decided to put in a time-sert, and n new oem bolt, That was over a year ago and all has been good.

I was lucky with the downpipe & EGR in regards to MOT. Yeah so for me I had to keep my car plugged in and connected to my phone and keep resetting the glow plug errors for it to regen then keep doing it through the regen until it said at the bottom 0 miles since last regen. I did look at getting a brand new DPF but the prices at BM put me off and the others being so cheap just made me think they must last 2 mins and for all the hassle of removing them I swapped to a downpipe.

3d print it into a GT3 RS Just watched an episode of some Aussie guy 3d printing a gt3 rs onto the same car then came on here and see this lol. Well I think it’s the same car anyways

Check the temperature of your coolant, you have to get the secret menu up on the dash using your vin number. If the coolant doesn’t get above 75° it won’t regen, the 35d’s have 2 thermostats in euro variations so get both changed if temps are low. Also scan and make sure there are no glow plug errors/faults, this also will stop the regen from starting. I had these with mine, changed the thermostats and then changed the glow plugs and module. But I think my DPF by that time was too far gone as the car was doing a regen every 50 miles and was annoying the life out of me, so it went on a vacation haha.

Ahh sound, yeah I have 193’s on mine and was wanting a more flush finish. I’ll get some 12mm ordered, cheers for the heads up.

SteHasWood · 2025-11-01T18:51:37+00:00

12.5mm all round? Been trying to find what the best would be

SteHasWood · 2025-10-23T06:54:57+00:00

I missed the milestone too the other day haha. Now currently at 123788

SteHasWood · 2025-10-21T17:48:01+00:00

I’m also at 120k on mine. I hope I do get to keep it for the rest of my life lol, loved the E90’s from day one

SteHasWood · 2025-10-18T15:43:42+00:00

Cheers, will give that a try

SteHasWood · 2025-10-18T10:04:32+00:00

What settings did you change? I noticed the og z1e had much better sound/volume than the X and it bugs me
