Hi Guys,

So it's been a little while since I updated this thread. The car is still going great, and I have been keeping up nicely with maintenance:

March 2013
Fitted new OEM Expansion Tank + Cap (preventive measure)
Coolant Flush (OEM) - glad to see that clean coolant came out of the car. Rick and I have inspected the whole cooling system thoroughly - pipes all still nice and soft, no leaks.
Fitted New ZHP Gearknob

June 2013
Wheel alignment and balancing
Changed Gearbox Fluid with BMW MTF-L2 (this is the OEM spec fluid).

August 2013
Rear Taillight Grounding Fix
Fitted new OEM Thermostat (preventive measure)
Changed Air Filter (OEM)
Changed Coolant bleeder screw (OEM).

September 2013
Oil and Oil Filter @ SMG BMW
New Rear Tires (Michelin PS3)

Arbitrary Fixes

Creaking Seats: http://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=40792
Leather Cleaning: http://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=47291

The mileage at this point 101500km and I am loving the car.

It seems as though the last few pics I posted after my OEM Xenon retrofit have become broken links, so here's a reminder :)

One day when my 330i is all grown up, it will look like this!:tease:

You have a very nice one, too! It looks good with Mtec 1 and those wheels. If I were you, I would just put all my effort into improving the condition wherever possible.

Thanks Adi

I am planning to keep it as it is

Still want to do clear indicators
It's going for a full service next week at Garage 808
Replacing all the belts/fluits(gearbox/diff/powersteering) ect.

Still love every second of the 330i, always puts a smile on my face:rollsmile:

AdiS - your thread of love has inspired me to take a very close look at my ride this weekend and make a list of all those little things that piss us off and FIX THEM! Thanks bud.

Awesome ride you have - hope she's everything you want and more. :thumbs:

What a beautiful 330i Individual manual, seemingly very very rare.. may I ask what kind of money you parted with for her Adi?
