[M.Directspares]

Bro Supafly, I remember you also wanted to start this project, how's is the progress?

yes, car now rotten at roadside, LOL. pray soon, wish i have the time and money.

the problem with RHD is the extractor... With the steering coupling in the way, the space is limited for a free flowing 4-1 extractor.

Thanks Fabian for the tips.

nyway where did u source the rear c-pillar cover? heard its NLA. Im thinking to bring in back new rear quarter panel before starting the project, as my panel not cut at the panel seam.

Pray for 2013

Wpyan, side track a bit, how is your e53 in terms of reliability? Engine and gearbox wise. Thanks.

Bro EuJax, so far so good, it s a very nice SAV to drive.

Wow, you never had issue with the v8 and the transmission? That is very good. I have heard so many x5 owners with problems of their gearbox and usually the v8 has leakage as a common problem, or maybe they didn't maintain it the proper way. Myself thinking of a 3.0 e53 thus asking around for owners experience. Do you service your car in AB Penang? Sorry again for this side track.

Yes, go and get ones, you sure will enjoy it.
No, my car was under a local mechanic, its only with 120000km only. Enjoy, bro.
