There was a topic once which had the part number of the silicone spacers. I'm having trouble finding it. Can anyone remember the p/n? My order is almost ready: 4 x 36 13 135 ALPINA-emblem with support 4 x 36 13 124 spring 4 x 36 13 125 locking plate DIN 6799 D4 VA Edit: found it! Amusing that the li...
I'm having my rims and center caps refurbished. I will be ordering new logo's, but I was wondering whether I should be careful removing them from the center cap. What is included with the center cap logo? The spring and the little "ring" (see arrow below)? Or do I need to re-use them with the new lo...
Since the recent Ice Age braking feels a bit rough. Sometimes there's a little wobble, but it goes away after a while. The discs also have a lot more grooves than before the winter. (std BMW 330i items) Is this a common problem? Can this be mended, without having to replace discs and pads? The car h...
Today I finished a week of eco-driving. The result is 36.877 MPG (or 7.66 litres/100km) I drove a total of 488 miles on a single tank of Super 98. Modus operandi: - change gear at 2000rpm in every gear - cruise on the highway at 2500rpm (= approx. 72 mph) (75% motorway) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17851...
I've just received confirmation from Buchloe that this part is no longer available.
So I've got a choice between:
- Alpina leather/wood
- Alpina rosewood old-style
- BMW wood + emblem transplant

I have contacted Alpina export, and they're offering me this: http://www.alpina.jp/PARTS/IMAGES/2010.2.28/alpina_shifut_t.jpg Part number 23 10 003 (Palisanderholz = Brazilian Rosewood?) What do you think? How are these to handle? Do you think it will clash with the shiny wood trim on the dash? Triv...
My car has an all-wooden gear knob; thus: http://theALPINAregister.com/forums/userpix/21304_myknob_1.jpg As I've probably mentioned before: it's scratched and cracked, probably by the previous owner's rings. Now, I always like to take the path of least resistance, which in this case is ordering a ne...
The car came minus a handbook and as I would like the car to be 'complete' I thought to ask if anyone had one they didn't want. I am prepared to pay a reasonable amount and postage of course. I've got my copy right here. I still need it, obviously, but here are the details. Maybe you could order a ...
Picked up my Alpina calendar yesterday: number 0183 out of 1555! Oh yes, it's numbered, just like our cars. Thick paper, brilliant photographs, well packaged. And it's big! 60x40cm. Where the heck am I going to hang it? And it's too nice to write anything on (kids' birthdays, shopping lists, importa...
