  8. Are you saying lexus did the job for free. Luckily iv had nay problems on my 2007 220d. Its chipped ( trust me theres a diffrence ). Used bk 244 aswell. Mpg on my 100 mile trip to work at 60mph in cruise control the odd 6th gear and I can get average 47mpg to 50 plus. Apart from the few car park dings which dent places wount touch because theres possibly slight cracking of paint. Im a happy wee lad with iy. ( mods planned once morgage sorted. I dont use the car when home due to short journeys I use the wife C4 leob.

  14. Hi guys what price did people pay to have the springs installed. A local garage is charging 35 quid an hour says 2 hours work but if less he will charge less. He just charged the missus 30 quid to install fron break discs and pads which we supplied. Would have done our selfs but the caliper bolt was rounded. Im not touching springs dont have the tools.

Only thing is I opend the box ibwas under impression it was adhustable. All it is is like a chip block from a pc like a motherboard
  19. Hi guys do you have pics of the cars lowerd on both the springs and coilovers and how much is yours adjusted.iv a set of chrom 18x9 and 225 40 18 tyres and want it sittibg low but not to much.id love coilovers but redundancy and issue.
  20. Has anyone bought parking sensors and fitted them. I orders wireless sensors today and going to fit them myself cant be hard drill hole.insert and connect to the box. But i dont really want to drill into bodywork to feed wires intl car.is there any gromets in rear of car already etc?
  21. Thanks for the reply.do you have any links to a line out converter.im pretty good at audio systems iv built a few custom ones on my other cars but been along time.if i have an external amp then id have no reason to hook up to standard sub just straight to head unit?
  22. Hi guys iv a standard 220d wish i had the Se version.my question is the standard audio system is amazing yet i want to know what the diffrence between standard and mark levison system is. I might put aftermarket sub in can it be hooked directly to system or will i still need an external amp which means wires to engine bay.
  23. How much and how much power did your 220d have with it
