Re: Cold Start Up Problem and Cog of Death - Alpina E46 B3.3 2002
Might be worth doing a continuity check to make sure there isn't a poor connection or broken wire. Had this on mine recently.

I think you were unlucky that all these things happened at the same time but, given the list of issues, a £900 bill is pretty good - you should see my invoice folder!

Re: That's a very very big number
Thanks - it's been fun so far, despite the occasional roadside despair, and gearing up for the next milestones along the way

Used to run 17" BMW Style 45 wheels with Alpin rubber but upgraded to a second staggered set of 18" Classics with Pilot Sport Alpin tyres this yearScooBeeFive wrote: ↑Thu Apr 08, 2021 8:46 pmAlways an exciting time - I'll hopefully swap mine over this weekend too. What wheels do you run as winters out of interest?
