thx for your video - wanting a Z3 so kids can learn stick

I recently installed some new caps on my Z3 and found an easy way to remove the old caps, small suction cups. Just wet the suction cup, press it on and let it rip...

Great video Mark, here in Truro Cornwall England you are a legend I’m learning a lot just watching ,I have just bought my first Z3 and I love it, it’s a 1998 1.9 with only 28.000 miles on it one previous owner full bmw service history also a hard top and top hoist to lift top off and all it cost was £500 pounds,keep up the great videos . best wishes Roy

How about the inside door handles. These seem to break on all Z3s coming completely off the doors. To make matters worse the parts are NLA.

Outstanding work! I appreciate the tool list!

Great videos, thank you 👏👏

Thank you for your channel! You ROCK.

Interesting. Here in Denver I picked up a set of Hankook Winter Evo2 (previous generation) for $72 each and they're great. Put them on my 16's where they will live now and I'm shopping for a nice Summer set of 17s.

My son recently moved to northern Utah and he bought himself a set of winter shoes for his F10 BMW. The wife and I were out visiting this past weekend and I was curious to see what winter tires the America's Tire salesman sold him on, Hankook's. The kid will be sporting Hankook's in the winter and Continental's in the summer. Informative video and enjoy your Kooky new shoes... If anyone is planning a trip to Salt Lake City, I highly recommend visiting the Hill Air Museum and the Capital Building while there. Just thought I'd mention it...

Firestone are also extremly vfm! Especially in EU

Thanks for the video!

Hankook are very good tyres. Some of them are even star rated by BMW here in the UK. Speaking from experience they were making less cabin noise then Continental’s for me.

When it comes to tires I'm very happy with my Riken Raptors. Quality tire made by Michelin without the high Michelin price tag.

The most agile car in the world feels great on top of top a new set of tires.

I bought 4 Hankook Optimo tires from Amazon in 2018 for an 03' Ford Ranger. They balanced up fine and are riding great to this day.

Looking good. Apply some 303 Aerospace Protectant every few months and they will look new for years.

Thanks Mark you made it seem easy😊.thanks buddy😊

Hiya Mark & hope you’re very well - is this exactly the same process when changing out the oil on an auto box? Mine is the ‘01 Steptronic box & I’m on 67k miles now. All best Craig

Where did you get the plastic trim tool?

I hope you eventually make a new part like you described alot of us need it! Ive thought about just buying a broken one on ebay and getting it plastic welded together. Then do a 3d scan of it so i can 3d print it in abs.

this is crazy, my tie rod just recently got worse and i need to replace them! thank you so much

Fantastic video, thanks a lot

I have a z3 2002 2.2i roadster , 14 k milage and still has the original tyres , black with all the crome 23:58 24:01 details , red leather seats & red power rag ..... 24:09 how do you send an image ?

Cheers 🍻

I just bought a Z3 which had the tire made in 2000, still with a good air pressure and a huge amount of dirt around the tire. Removed it with the cage/box. It reached over 233k km without the tire, so I don't think this will ever be needed.

How is it holding up so far?

I have a 1997 nmw z3 1.9 that i picked up at the end of summer. Needs plenty of love. Its winter here unfortunately but I have to basically do sll the stuff you did plus more. So did you notice the loose steering was more from the tie rods i might just try to do those for now. Thanks alot for all the videos they are really helpng .

Hi Mark! Great video as always. Not sure if you had any issues reusing the boot clamp, but they do make stainless steel zip ties, which are very affordable, and would work great for this kind of reattachment.

best channel in the world

Thank you for a great video and for being here for us Z3-fans in 2025 again. A happy new year and all the best wishes for you and your family from over the pond!

Looks like you're having issues with those side grill roundels again. should have bought the oem's... Great video, when should I drop off my car lol...

Another great video sir! Thanks for the showcase ❤

I might have missed it, but why the faux red Z3 stand in?

Nice Video! Early after I purchased a used '98 2.8 which has 75K miles on it, I had replaced the full front end suspension, inner/outer tierods and tires and new tires (got an alighnment too). The difference was night and day and I love out it handles now.

💪😎👍

Great video!! I love the new paint job and hard top addition!!

Scared me with the thumbnail.

I have a 1998 z3 M roadster and i adore you. This is great, I’m gonna have my boyfriend watch this video :) and i will oversee his work

Did everything including the inner and outer tie rod also did all new brake calipers ceramic brake pads drilled and slotted rotors I’m now doing timing chain also guides and tensioner all water inlets and outlets but I did metal upgrade all new hoses new water pump and I’m replacing all gaskets mine sat for 10 years it’s a 97 with 90k miles when I did the top bolts of the lower control arms from the top with a wobbler socket extension and one more extension

Hello Moment of Zed. I subscribed a while back to your channel and enjoy your videos. I have a 96 Z3 I bought a couple of years ago, and it's the most fun to drive of any car I have owned. You seem to be able to find things out a lot better than I can, so I was wondering if you might know about this. I have the subwoofer in my rear console and I need to replace the console (it's cracked up pretty bad). I did find a beige rear console online that is affordable, but it's the one that has the storage compartment, not the speaker. What is have been trying to find out is, can I remove the compartment and put subwoofer in it's place. They look exactly alike. I have been trying to find out and can't seem to find out if it is exchangeable. If you have any helpful info on this, please let me know. Thank you any help, Ralph in Ohio.

I have a 2001 3.0i. My #1 unresolved problem is the phantom electrical issue that drains the battery when parked for more than a week. Other than disconnecting the battery, are you aware of any solution to this problem?

Thanks for the videos! It seems that my lenses are cracking inside. Are lens’s replacement available like in the E46? Thanks

Any idea i have a 98 m roadster and have the b800 code says 02-05 but i cant clear it. Thanks

I hate this door panel so damn much. I've gone in to replace speakers. And later window regulator bushings. That damn fiber board is absolute garbage. I applied fiberglass resin to portions and some fiberglass reinforcement to others. Maybe I'd need to be better at it, but the reinforced part just ripped away from the rest when I removed it the 2nd time... And not long ago, a body shop broke the door handle so I have to go back into it.... I used some new high temp hot glue for the clips and that seemed OK. Car interiors get too hot for standard 2 part epoxy And reinstalling is so damn tedious

Great video, as usual! Good price on the replacement part and it looks quite serviceable $2k for a top replacement - ouch! Makes me feel better about the effort.

For someone that is not in the car audio hobby, and for your first go at building a sub box, I have to tell you that you did very well. I've been in car audio for almost 16 years... I'd be interested to know what sort of power the factory amplifier is pushing to that sub.

Style 18 . 8j*17R & 9j*17R

i have 98 z3 1.9 with S209 Differential lock 25%,,,,,,,what oil should i use?

We did this on my daughter’s Z3. Brings back good memories. Good job!
