This is part of my learning process. Knowing how our cars came to be. The basis for the current design all began with these. Nice!!!

I order online through bmwparts@classicautocampus.com, they deliver to a USA address only. What I do is have my auntie set-up a balikbayan box, and when its filled, ship it to manila via sea freight. Or you can get in touch with Johnny air cargo for rush items, Aboitiz and LBC has the same service which you can inquire on.

For mini parts, you can order on line through mossmini.com, and for HK source of mini mania products, you can order via maxmotorsports.com in HK

Eddieboy,

You can buy parts from Basics (European Motorwerks). I'm not sure how cheaper they are from the dealers but they should be a little lower. You can find it along libis, right beside the old Culture Club.

Pachichay,

Yep, 4 minis, whis I could bring mine but my car will be down for at least 2 weeks. There is something we should watch out for in our cars, I'll let you know on Sat.

See you guys soon.

John

ey guys... does your check engine light (the engine icon above the EML light) lights up when you turn on the ignition? other indicators also lights up like the abs, runflat sensor, EML etc etc.. then will go out after you start the car.... my check engine light never lights up but the other indicators do... :confused:

all lights turn on and off a while after start up....do you have OBC? If yes, try checking the manual about OBC functions.

enjoy your meet up tom. guys am talking to another guy regarding software tuning in manila. he just got his gear and setting it up for the meantime. will give you feedback once it is up and running. i talked to autosport and his method is not convenient in my opinion. everytime he tunes the ecu, you have to drive it and test it for bugs. which means the tuning is done by youpag nasira walang sisihan. my friends approach is to download your original software and modify it and upload the modified one. may escape clause to kasi your original software and be uploaded anytime you like. the ecu box will have to be taken out of the car though. we'll see nalang.

anyways welcome nalang to the new member, pachichay.

Hi, I had the worst experience today, my car won't start and had to do jump start. Apparently, the battery's dead. Do you guys have suggestions on what battery to use? And where to have it changed? (sorry, I'm not very car literate, but I wanna try and take care of this myself)
