More than the usual glares from the local blue rinses in the village should have given me a clue.... even the wife said it sounds louder :hahaha: was working a few days ago as I got a mate to look in there whilst blipping the throttle.
Took a look inside with a torch and was shocked to see the filter looking VERY black and dirty, it was changed 6000 miles ago by Munich legends for the insp 2.......
Time to order a new actuator, bmc filter, castrol edge, oil filter, spark plugs and a set of bosch coils to replace the bremi's. The car deserves it :thumbs:

What's the plastic thing with the chrome tip in front of the butterfly valve?

The previous owner fitted angel eyes and thats one of the original sidelight bulbs clipped out of the way, if they are removed it throws up a dash light. Still undecided on which to go with...

I reckon it would look good with Angel Eyes.

If you think your filter was dirty - check my pics out in the tech section.

(new ITG filter now on order)

My filter was allegedly changed c 10k miles ago...

Why is it necessary to order a new actuator ? Are you talking about gearbox one ?

That would probably help better in the dealers than 'flap controller' :hahaha:

I fitted Umnitza Angel Eyes to mine not long after I bought it in 2006 (was the done thing back then) and they still work perfectly. Lifetime warranty right enough so can get bits replaced foc if I need to. So far, no need.

Still think they look sharp IMO.
