That was the start of my issues, when calling up 3rd I was in 5th nearly all the time as that's where the left gear lever fell.

Mine is pretty worn but not too bad, although I did notice my wife was changing from 5th to 5th a few times because it doesn’t self centre very well :)

Though shes only has done 1500 miles since the last oil change that was over a year or so ago, so thought may as well do it my self now as does it really matter?
as long as I have the receipts, and buy the genuine parts, I can for once save a couple of quid.
This will be the first oil change I've ever done on one of my M cars.
Please don't everyone get all upset about my oil choice, it is what it is and I like it.2001 E46 M3 Coupe for me / 2007 E91 335i for the Dogs.

I would agree, have owned neatly 10 cars with them in. But in my experience its largely down to how the car was driven from new, when I worked for Toyota in the 90's I had a caring e 1.6 16v lean burn, that was eco friendly, but sadly for it, it was company car that I had from 8 miles on the clock, and once "run it" I drove it like I stole it for 5,000 miles, and my boss had a 2.0 16v that he drove like miss daisy for 5,000 miles. Jump for 6 months, and the purchasers of the 2,0 16v came in for service and I leant them my car for the day, and when they returned they couldn't believe how well it went, though it was some sports edition GTI type of deal, I said no, just a 1.6i run in right lol.2001 E46 M3 Coupe for me / 2007 E91 335i for the Dogs.
