I actually have a full size spare which I like to take with me when towing a trailer (I don't trust any tire fill and don't want to get stuck somewhere). Can I get either of these in the US? The...

I agree on the Audi Q7 - surprised it's selling so little (it's actually a great SUV).

Note that the data is meant for direct comparisons so for example the V8 data isn't included (petrol/gasoline...

Same as me.

So I checked things more carefully today. I think it is in fact taking a long time to read all the files on car start. However, I never bother using the by artist, album etc. I just...

When you have a look at the files on the computer, are they organized by artist and album or in one big directory? Only other thing I can think of.

I keep the hard disk inside the car and don't take it in/out each day. It starts up within 10 seconds in most cases and immediately continues where it left off. Not surprising it would take a...

2011 started early and will run through August 2011 I believe. There were a few options just added but if you order a build now (not showroom stock), you'll get the updates. All the major visual...

So the E70 has a 74.1mm center bore vs. 72.56 for the E53. I have not been able to find any 5x120 wheels with this bore at 19".

I tow long distances and don't want to let a flat tire stall me for...

What about non-matching choices? I've always used Tire Rack to make the wheel matching easy. Any other good sites that will have 19s that fit the E70?

where to get 19" wheel?

I have style 335 19" y-spoke wheels on my 2011 35d. I didn't get a spare with the car because of the 3rd row seats (really just wanted the self leveling rear suspension for towing!).

Since I tow,...

As someone else mentioned, I would suggest a test call with the air fans off (AC/heat) in your driveway (no road noise). If there is still a lot of noise, then there's definitely a problem with the...

You could easily press on the gas pedal through that plastic to get a little speed.

I have a deep sea blue with tobacco interior. Love all the blue/brown combos.

Picked up my car on 9/1 - a total of a 104 day wait (almost 15 weeks). Probably a record. Things were looking good for a 8/1 pickup until an option change check for side view cameras bumped the...

Wow, I just learned that the Imperial pint is 19.2 US fluid ounces and not 20. I had thought it was 20 for many years. Thanks for enlightening me.

Your 38mpg (Imperial gallons) is 30mpg in US gallons (80%).

Yeah, looks like the M3 will go to a turbo 6 but they will still make V8s elsewhere that you can stuff in if you're so motivated. :)

It's probably worth pointing out that this is a 13% increase in hp and a 4% increase in torque. Not trivial but also not exactly launching the X5 into orbit. The 4% torque increase would be hard to...
