Good evening all,

I have just purchased a low mileage mint M Coupe

It still has 4 green lights however i want to put it in for an inspection 2 service so i know everything is as it should be!!

Can anyone recommend a specialist in the Leeds / West Yorkshire area?

Anyone used - http://www.newhallbmwspecialists.com/

Or - http://m4bm.co.uk/

Your help would be appreciated!!

PS. Is there a cheap solution to get a bit more noise out of the exhaust; i feel like it deserves a better soundtrack!

RAPID!!

Cheers

H

M coupe = Z4M Coupe?

We use Autohaus in York, always been very happy with the service. They are extremely professional, friendly and competitive. They look after our 650 & 330CI. thumbup

Also, ive read the valve clearance MUST be checked every inspection 2?

I also have slight difficulty getting it in first; if i rev it pops in - seems like a common problem; just needs the gear box oil replacing with thicker oil or clutch hose might need replacing?

What year is it? I other words, the early S50 (321 bhp) that needs valve clearances done at inspection II or the later S54 (325 bhp)?

1999 S50, done 41k mileage, last inspection 2 was done 5 years ago however with 39,460 miles on the clock. 99% sure not clocked as its immaculate and was owned by a wealthy chap who had it on show.
