Ime on those bulbs, once one blows others are due to blow soon after. The shock of removing the cluster can kill the other marginal bulbs.
Plus old bulbs are dimmer and it's obvious especially with backlight bulbs when only some have changed.

Re: What did you do today?
Brake caliper and airbag module for the Z4 only arrived today despite supposed to being here yesterday. Today is a gym day so I haven't had much spare time to do much on it. However I stuffed the left airbag module into the car to see if the car could talk to it. Yes is the answer. This is good as i...

Re: What did you do today?
Realised why I don’t like VAG shit and rarely entertain it. Daughter No3 ‘s TT again, this time it broke down in Cambridge on Sunday . 11hours for the RAC to recover it 50 miles and diagnose a broken injector, my man Waseem put 4 new plugs and one coil pack in it and it’s right as rain. Of course s...

Re: EBay Finds
Awfully tempted. But a combination of needing another project like a hole in the head and no Ceri to do reliable transport means I shouldn't.

Re: What did you do today?
Depends how rusted that retaining nut is. But then you have a MAP torch. Will need an alignment afterwards.

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI & 2004 BMW Z4 2.2
Do you have any experience in reflashing BMW airbag modules or anything else like that to change the VIN? Was going to follow this document: https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwixnfTJl47jAhXfUhUIHdzMDyAQFjAAegQIA...

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI & 2004 BMW Z4 2.2
Useful to know for next time. I've ordered a caliper this morning already.
Pipe I'm hoping is going to be okay otherwise it'll be replacing brake pipe and very rusty ferrules job. Otherwise I'd ordered a new pipe for it too.

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI & 2004 BMW Z4 2.2
Okay so I've been doing a bit of double checking on caliper part numbers. The caliper pair I linked earlier are not for this. Those are bigger and only fit the 2.5si and 3.0i/3.0si. This 2.2 has the same as the 2.0 and 2.5i, which are more expensive. I think this is correct based on the part numbers...

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI & 2004 BMW Z4 2.2
This evening I had a few hours to put these new rear pads in. Apart from the E320, pretty much every car I've bought in the last year had its rear or front end in the air soon after I've bought it. 🤣 https://autoshite.com/uploads/monthly_2024_04/PXL_20240414_165208207.jpg.e85e992d02ec72cac3be9c7073...
