    Once again, brilliant walkthrough. I thought I was going to have to remove the light to get at the bulb. Many thanks from a 330ci daily driver!

      Just a question. I have a 330ci 2001 but both of tje lights are halogen. Do I need to do some sort of conversion or can I just buy xenon bulbs and just out them on

    Great video! Can i use xenon/LED bulb to change out the halogen bulb near the grill on both sides?

    @NotVeryNiceToYou 7 років тому +1

    nice video again man, those bulbs are okay for the price, osram cbi would be your best bet, but since your changing your light setup in the future those would be alright, they are not much brighter than high end halogens though

    @kavan1773 7 років тому +2

    Would the same steps apply for an 2003 M3? My Xenons flicker intermittently and sometimes go out. Turning them on and off real quick makes it stop temporarily but then they flicker again. I just want to swap my bulbs to see if one of them is bad. If both bulbs are good, what do you think could be the problem?

      Have you addressed the issues indicated by the SES fault codes? If you clear the SES with a scanner and the codes come back it usually indicates that the module is detecting a fault based on spec parameters.

    I bought an 03 325i and came with halogen bulbs but it has the HID headlights assembly and obviously halogen bulbs are not the correct ones for this car because they project way too low light. If I want to go back to HID lights. what should I look before just buying the HID bulbs?

    I highly recommend Morimoto brand from The Retrofit Source. $20 are way to cheap for xenons, for xenons you do get what you pay for. The Morimoto's are $50 for the pair and very good quality from a reputable brand.

    How long before you should replace xenon light bulbs? Mine is a 2004 bmw 325i garaged with original bulbs. I do have a new set and my niece says one bulb looks yellowish. Is that normal or is it just the angle she saw it at?

      Check your DISA Valve? or possibly your fuel filter and pump is failing. Stop driving it if its at this stage. I had similar issue, mines was that the Disa valve seal wore out, when i replaced it everything worked perfect again and power was restored. Good luck man.

    Excuse me, sir
    I am from Taiwan
    I got a question
    Last month
    I converted my 2001 E46 320ci 2.2 to a manual gearbox (FOR 330ci)
    But at a speed of 100 KM, about 3200 to 3300 rpm
    Too high
    Now I will change the rear differential,
    Someone said 2.93 someone, said 3.07 I don't know which one is more appropriate
    Can you tell me the original E46 320ci 2.2 Manual gearbox rear differential transmission ratio ?
    Or which one will be more smooth?
    Because ther European car is expensive in Taiwan
    and not to much details of the modified cars in Taiwan
    specially European car ~~~ e46 manual shift Holster so expensive over US.300
    Looking forward to your reply !!

    Hey I have a 323ci with a coolant problem that it's driving me crazy. It evaporates coolant or leaks it (the cap brews when I turn it off after a drive) it seems to be excessive pressure In the system. Everyday I have to put about half a cup in the reservoir and if I pull it hard about 5/6k revs it overheats right away. Also the ac blows cold on the sides but on the center vent is warm. And sweet smell every time I drive it.

    • @josemartinezoc1534
      @josemartinezoc1534 7 років тому

      Carlos Quintero you need to bleed your cooling system; let all the air out that's one reason why your coolant might leak (too much pressure with air) . otherwise you need to look at hoses or reservoir or water pump or thermostat.

    I'm trying to upgrade my headlights in my 1999 BMW E46 328i from factory halogens to xenon. I've found a set of OEM BMW xenon headlights with projectors. If I buy those, would I have to rewire or recode anything in the car? If so, would it just be easier to retrofit my stock headlights?

    • @dylanjackson2011

      Mine plugged right in. As long as u have a transformer box or ballast box before the xenon headlights. Basically pulses the xenon filament a million times a second

    Ankoor greetings... know this kind old video, I am searching for the same bulbs on AmAzon, but not seeing one with out extension. Having said that. I am having 2004 330cI with factory HID kid, passenger side bulb gone. Stealers asking 290 plus tax a bulb and Autozone asking 140 with tax. Also due to excessive heat, the wiring harness is not good shape, I mean all the plastic around that got harden and when we touch it, it is coming off .. I am thinking to change the whole assembly. Let me know your thoughts!
