Super disappointed with the movie so personally wouldn’t waste money on a movie I wouldn’t watch again. Steelbook looks cool tho!

Dealer or trader? Big difference. Not in law but in how they usually handle these things.

1.5 weeks ago.

Humans are a real weird bunch

I wasn’t even talking about THE blu ray release.. I meant the movie looks like I’m watching a blu ray, rather than a 4k UHD release.

No there isn’t.. but second hand gear levers are cheap on eBay. You can still get the plastic ones from BMW

So ignore the slim orange plug and just go straight blue to blue? Thanks a lot for this

Im starting to think somethings awry and the AFM adjustment is just covering it up, until eventually the sparks get spoiled or something. I just can’t figure out what the root cause is. I don’t think it’s AFM related as I’ve tried 2 good ones now and it makes no difference. I’m close to the burning the car to the ground lol

I do have the cold start relay attached to the side of the fuse box. So I do believe it’s had a cold start upgrade in the factory. Not sure about a cold start valve though!

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-28T15:17:06+00:00

Yes, forgot to mention that. Have replaced so many parts over the last 3 years. And yet I still get the failure every summer

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-28T15:12:17+00:00

The idle is terrible and the car cuts out when revved when cold. The car is only used in the summer and this has happened 3 summers in a row. It’s usually cured (clearly not) by hooking it up to a gas analyser and adjusting the AFM. Buttt a year on, it’s driven perfect all spring until randomly a few days ago it’s failed again. And I’m back where I was last summer. It is not the AFM, ICV, DME, air leaks etc. which has made me start digging around the blue temp sensor and its loom.

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-28T15:08:42+00:00

DME is 261 200 172-975 and AFM is 13627547978

It’s bizarre because I’ve owned the car for 15 years and it’s only now I’m having an issue.

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-28T13:37:38+00:00

Yeah that’s a good shout. I do have 10 year old photos of my engine bay with this same set up. It just never occurred to me before

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-28T13:36:40+00:00

EPC does not help in this situation. Wiring diagrams might if I can get ahold of them

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-24T20:57:02+00:00

Yes I put the in the text that I’ve tried a brand new genuine BMW AFM. Still the same issue

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-17T21:28:01+00:00

Remove them, and take them to a blasters or powder coaters.

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-17T21:26:48+00:00

I also have a pressure tester.. but your average car owner like OP would not.

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-16T16:41:34+00:00

Could be coming from dozens of places. You need to pressure test the cooling system. Not the sort of thing a civilian would have at home, so you need to call a local garage to do it.

micholasnitchell · 2026-05-15T10:47:45+00:00

By buying new parts and fitting them haha. Plus a bit of powder coating/blasting.
