Now thats what I call a collection thread 2024. It sound like the kind of collection mission many of us would like to do but don't have the nerve. I drove over the Pyrenese about 10 years ago and it was really good all be it in a Honda Civic. What's the average cruising speed do you recon? 55mph?

This seems to be throwing the entire back catalogue of BMW issues at you.. If you've got a wheel wobble at 56mph I'm calling Bingo.

I don't know. On the e46 you could buy some little box with a resistor on that tricked the car into thinking the sear occupancy sensor was working. I was never quite sure if it premaritally told the car there was someone in the seat or not. I think I would fine with mapping it out for myself and to get it through the mot but not sure I'd want to sell it to someone who then thinks the airbag system is fully functioning.

Seat occupancy sensor is an old BMW favourite and he scourge of every e46 owner.

I've found with BMW the small things you think will be cheap like nuts and bolts and expensive but parts you think will be expensive are fairly prices. Real oem has it has $60 so I imagine it'll be the same in £'s from BMW in the UK.

Have you called BMW to see if they have it? A few times I struggled to get second hand bits for my Bavarian heaps so called BMW and they could get it for less than I thought. I've also been told stuff is NLA then when I've called the dealer they've been able to get it. I could even get obscure parts for the 320si.

Indeed that’s why I thought a Volvo 360 gls was a better life choice for a 23 year old (it wasn’t ).

Remember there was a thing for a while with people welding up the back doors on 4dr mk2s to make them look like 2doors but they just looked really stupid ? I wonder how long until this starts happening with 2000’s Imprezas?
