The part of the mechanism that I can see moves well except for the pin that fixates the seat in the groves. However, my biggest problem is that a lot of the mechanism is hidden behind the plastic covers attached to each side of the seat and I have still not managed to figure out how to remove...

When I get access to the "trouble area" I think an assessment will reveal if it is fixable or need replacement. However, the first and major obsticle is to get access to this area. To begin with there are some large protective plastic shields running from the side of the seat and all the way...

I agree that improved air mass/fuel mass will not give the optimal performance, but I certainly think that it is a great step in the right direction. Or you do not think so?

I was more into doing DIY re-flashing (as recommended by pgarner) and had almost dropped the tuning box idee until you brought it up. So i can't really say that I favour it, I am only tying to confirm if it is an viable alternative or if there are strong factually based arguments in adverse of...

How should I interpret that? That the tuning box can or can not impact the long-term memory function of the ECU? To me it is not a problem as such that "tuning boxes usually only increase the fuel delivery", assuming that: * the engine is a bit starved in the original configuration * a...

I could not tell for sure, but from what I have seen/read so far about these generic tuning boxes I do not even think they are smart enough to mess it up. Most tuning boxes just seem to top up the quantity based on the ECU, i doubt it will alter timing or overall parameters for cycles. If they...

I have a BMW 320d e91 (touring) with sport seats (manual, not electrically operated), and today when riding in the passenger seat I noticed that it had gotten stuck and would not slide back and forth any longer. A closer assessment revealed that the visible part of the main mechanism is...

If you continue to crank the box up, sooner or later it will start to soot significantly. However, my understanding was that many diesels (not least BMW 320d) are originally mapped on the lean side, to reduce exhaust and power. Additionally, as mentioned, I was aiming to combine this with a K&N...

Please let it go, I have already tried to explain my reasoning and I respect your view but it will not change mine. As you see from my previous post the hot option now is DIY re-flashing, without own interference with professionally developed map. Which leads me to the question stated above...

Thanks! Well there seem to be different views on this, but for simplicity just say that I like to be somewhat in control and less dependent on others. So which 2-3 companies/products would you recommend if I where to go for the DIY plug-and-play, hands-off the map myself. Although I do not say...

Are you talking about a remap performed at a service station? If so, I apologise that I should have been more clear in my question. Clarification: * I am not located in UK * remap at a service station is not an option because I want to rapidly and free of charge be able to go back to original...

I recently bought a BMW 320 d (E91) - 2007 touring (163bhp) and I am looking for some good tuning tips. I have found it difficult to find well founded and fact based information on this subject when it comes to the details. Any how here are my thoughts, and I would be very grateful for...
