This is it, folks – this is your early petrolheaded Christmas present: BMW has released full details of the new BMW M3 Saloon and M4 Coupe. And we do mean full details.

An output of 431 turbocharged horsepower is the headline, but really it’s the extent of the engineering overhaul carried out by BMW’s M division that really stuns the senses here. Both the M3 (blue car) and M4 (yellow car) go on sale in June 2014, priced at just over £56,000 – but for the time being let’s get geeky. These are such gloriously focused performance machines. The organisation hasn’t yet found the root cause of the problem – so it is working with fuel retailers to work out what’s causing it.

It has its suspicions though: the 7% biofuel content that, by law, has to be added to diesel fuel. The issue concerns diesel fuel filters, which are becoming blocked by a gel-like substance in diesel. This starves the engine of fuel, causing it to either run on reduced power or not start at all. The orange engine warning light often also glows.

This is similar to the old problem of diesel fuel ‘waxing’ in winter – but it’s not the same. Waxing has been cured by modern additives… and whereas waxed fuel used to clear when the weather warmed up, this problem doesn’t: the fuel filter has to be completely replaced.

RAC patrols first noticed motorists were suffering from the issue last winter, but it disappeared over the summer. However, last month, when the cold weather returned, there were nearly 600 incidents! RAC technical director David Bizley said: “The industry is working extremely hard to find a solution… neither the fuel producers, nor retailers, nor the motor manufacturers saw this problem coming.

  1. Also a thing to mention is that an online business administration training is designed for learners to be able to without problems proceed to bachelors degree programs. The 90 credit education meets the lower bachelor diploma requirements when you earn the associate of arts in BA online, you may have access to the latest technologies on this field. Several reasons why students have to get their associate degree in business is because they can be interested in the field and want to receive the general education and learning necessary ahead of jumping in a bachelor college diploma program. Thx for the tips you provide inside your blog.

  2. What I have seen in terms of computer memory is that there are specific features such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must match the requirements of the mother board. If the computer’s motherboard is pretty current and there are no operating-system issues, upgrading the memory literally will take under sixty minutes. It’s on the list of easiest personal computer upgrade types of procedures one can consider. Thanks for discussing your ideas.

  3. I like what you guys are up too. Such smart work and reporting! Keep up the excellent works guys I抳e incorporated you guys to my blogroll. I think it will improve the value of my website 🙂

  4. In the grand scheme of things you receive an A with regard to hard work. Where you confused us ended up being on the details. As it is said, details make or break the argument.. And that could not be more true in this article. Having said that, let me reveal to you just what exactly did give good results. Your authoring is certainly extremely persuasive which is most likely why I am making the effort to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, although I can see the jumps in reasoning you come up with, I am definitely not convinced of exactly how you appear to connect the ideas that make the final result. For now I will, no doubt subscribe to your position however hope in the foreseeable future you connect your facts much better.
