My Ride: 525d se
Default

I've had my 525d just over a week now and thanks to the info on this forum I've chopped out those evil swirl flaps,fitted a westfalia detatchable towbar (no visable bumper cut my #rse!) and got a nice meaty common rail chip running.So all I have to do now is eliminate a vibration at naughty speed.(wheel balance?)Thanks to you all!
