You seem to like it so much you have a furry erection :D

Nice car!
First thing first, get the engine undertray off and check the power steering rack to pump pipe!
If its leaking, replace it (any dirt in the oil can kill the pas pumps, plus the pipes are a common issue)
Also have a good check of the rear suspension springs as they also fail due to corrosion! :)

:thumb: Got mine about 6 weeks ago - love the SMG.

Have you had any kangarooing 1st to 2nd gear?

Edit to add: I know it's childish but changing down gear whilst on the gas is so addictive

Isn't SMG an option for the ladies ...

TX.

There is a software mod to help remedy this.
Doesn't totally irradicate it though, takes time to change your driving style to suit.

Yep, floor it or change up - depends on the situation.

LOL I'm the one on the left ;)

I take it you have driven an SMG car then?

^^ I'm not a laydee ;)

Another thing for kangaroo issues are things such as good tyres, and clutch condition.
Has the clutch been replaced on the car before buddy??

pmsl at the little britain bit :D:D!!!

Very rarely get it now and can generally get over it if I do. Twas a bit embarrasing at first though, on occasion :)

Drop a cog and run from the laughs!! hehehehe ;)

I thought this was a Scooby Forum,we might discuss religion,dogs,god,pervs,lowlifes,9/11 theories,give me a break bmws that is sad

Isn't this the other marques section??? :Suspiciou
This is the place to discuss bmw/merc/audi/delorian.....

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: :lol::lol:

Took me a while to see that :lol1:

:freak3: If you represent the average intelligence of a Scooby owner (which I'm sure you don't), I would not post here.

Do us a favour and stop talking nonsense please.

:lol1: stupid cat wouldn't leave me alone it was trying to get in every pic

scared a few passengers with the m mode when it drops it to second LOL.

Lovely! I've put my mates in the Private Sale Section on here. Fantastic Cars. Loving the Sport Mode Button. He's is Remapped. Bloody Rapid!

have you got any idea where he got the remap done?

Remap of a non turbo car can't give much extra can it :wonder:

TX.

If nothing else it lets you top the car at 180mph on the autobahns. ;)

E46 M3 remap gives about 15-20bhp and 25nm extra torque. (approx) :D

180mph in a 1600++kgs car with around 350bhp and the aerodynamics of a house brick is a wee bit optimistic methinks.

175 is achievable.
I'm currently on the latest M-Power training session at Wokefield park (BMW GB Training HQ) and the m3 has been discussed in quite detail today!! :D

New/current M3 - yes maybe (in fact highly likely). E46 M3 - very unlikely.

All 3 series (mine included) don't have great aerodynamics.

M Power training session sounds fun - can you ask them to stop selling badges to goons in old E36 318s and similar though?!

Apparently, the csl will hit 180 if derestricted, but remember it puts out 360bhp, so 17bhp up on standard, and it weighs 110kg less than standard too!!

We don't sell the badges, you have to have an M power chassis number to order anything!
I blame ebay, and pikeys stealing them, and plonkers fitting them to crappy bms,and the Labour party, and my nan...cos she's old! :D:D:D:D

Matt - lol!

I can believe it (just about) in a CSL but not a standard E46 M3, even with a minor tune.

I bugged the hell out of the tutor today, so to stop me annoying him any further he is going to get me loads of info of limits of the current and recent m power models.
