Am I the only Aussie enjoying this ? ? ?
 

:dunno: Hey guys, tell me I'm not the only Aussie enjoying the fruits, wealth of tech experience, tips, knowledge etc of this fantastic site.
Recently I read a good thread of a guy who drove up to the snow fields from Adelaide this winter in a 3.0d.
I find it hard to believe that nobody else 'down under' is 'on board'.
I appreciate that this site is primarily contributed by and US driven, but surely there are other X5 enthusiasts on the east coast of Oz, namely the Gold Coast.

Keen to see numbers, pls post a short reply. :cool:

Newbie
 

Another Aussie, from Canberra. New to the board, but not to the brand.

The members list's map shows few other members from down under.

Another Aussie here. Based in Newcastle.
But i do spend my holidays on the Gold Coast....

A month isn't really enough time "on board" to make this observation. Stick around, read a few more threads and you will find the rest of us lurking inside somewhere.
Colin.

G'day Colin & others, point taken. I sure do intend to stick around and hopefully bump in to a few more of the Aussies. It was merely an observation given that their seems to be hundreds (prob more) of X's cruising around the GC not to mention Brisbane.
Eventually hoping to go on a run one day with a pack of X's, compare rides, do mass pic shots etc.

another aussie signing in and loving the wealth of information

Another Aussie found you guys cause my 04 30d is running like a dog and now wont start at all obd shows a million codes but the main one looks to be cam sensor by what I can take form others experience and the other codes are as a result.

Another Aussie from WA though. I am new also, but have learnt a heap so far.

Another Aussie from Melbourne. I have learnt so far and enjoyed the group. Mine is 04 3.0d Sport, always whistling

G'day AussieX5,
Sorry to hear about the xmas lights on the dash. Maybe start a new thread with details of your prob and then wait for the learned out there to chime in.

don't think there are many 3.0D owners here, having said that, other forums are not as active here.

On board
 

;) Hi
Yep I am here Melbourne calling Best site on the net for all X3 stuff PS don't like the new Top Gear Aus show though too much crap
Maxey

agree, Top Gear Aus show is crap! But I don't care if it's good or not, what pisses me off is that they stop showing the original one.:cool:

I am with you the aussie top gear guys are trying toooooo hard to be like thier counter parts.

They need to relax and focus on the audience british humor is funny done by brits

"british humor is funny done by brits"

in addition, I would give it a thumb if they can do it as "a CAR show" properly. either funny, or proper car program. not none of them!

Hi all, anyone heard of any issues with the electrics integration of non genuine tow bars? would appreciate any advise as to where to source one in brisbane....cheers

another aussie, from perth.
great site. helped me heaps over the years. always someone willing to help and share their experience.

cheers.

Hi RD,
From what I've read so far it's not a good idea to go with a non oem towbar. Sorry but I can't help with suppliers if that's the way you're gonna go.

Go to the 'Search' option and type in 'tow bar' there's a swag of info there for you. Please come back with your installation decision & pics when finished as this is something I've thought of doing some time later.

Good luck.
