Cheers Adam, sounds pretty straightforward, do the rear seat bases have to to come out for the carpet to be removed?
-
Big Adam, How difficult was it to remove the carpet? Any chance of a quick write up? And also, how did you clean it in the end?
-
haha the pink is a bit of a guilty pleasure! :camp: I'm out at the minute posting from my phone, I'll get a purple sorted for you later dude

And Pink...

Yeah thats the point, he wanted an E46 M3 but the tax in Finland (is it?) is really high (works out at £250,000 for the car). So his plan was to use an M3 as a donor car and put everything into the 318i thus avoiding the import tax! And in the process I guess he thought, why not do a saloon version!
-
Thats the E90 M3 The E46 M3 was the one before which came in Coupe and Cabriolet. The current M3 (as in your picture) comes in saloon (E90), coupe (E92) and convertible (E93) although the saloon version is soon to be discontinued.

TBH there not a huge amount better in the wet. Look in the Tyre discussion thread for whats hot and whats not. yeah... but the tread pattern looks amazing! :nuts: +1!! Had these on a Civic Type-R and was always tempted to park it on full lock! :D
-
The best bit is when he says he took it to Munich and the lead engineer responsible for the E46 M3 says that if BMW produced an E46 M3 saloon then it wouldn't have been much better than this car!
-
Personally I wouldn't have had the CSL rear boot lid, but the rest of the car is awesome
-
It is an epic build and I agree with the serious balls comment!

Hey guys, Just thought I'd share this thread with you, I found it a while back and its a fantastic read for any petrolhead. As the title says, a guy bought an e46 saloon and an e46 M3 and decided to put them together! He used as many original BMW parts as possible during the build and theres plenty of pictures. Enjoy! :D http://www.e46fanatics.com/forum/showth ... p?t=578901

Thats awesome, I haven't had a single car pass its MOT without advisories! You'll have to tell me which testing station you go to! :)

Cheers Ollievr6, certainly seems a better option than forking out £120! :salute:
-
whats the razor blade option?
-
The light should clear but the fault code will remain in the memory. All you need to do is remember that it is there and it's an old code next time you have a diagnosis done. Clear it off when you next get chance to do so. . Thanks RW1 :salute:
-
I have the same problem, diagnosed by a VW indie. Question I forgot to ask is, if I change the sensor do I need to take it back to the garage for them to reset the code via VAGCOM?

There's a company called Royal Steering in Oxford that can retrim your steering wheel for about £100. They also trade on ebay and offer a temporary reaplacement steering wheel. I had an E46 wheel retrimmed and it was really good quality work.
