Anyone had their e38 Dinan tuned?

Creating a sleeper with all stock outside appearance but with a tiger under the hood. I'm sort of old fashioned and want to keep the e38 shell close to pure. I have gone to 18in BBS rims and Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires ... and dropped XM radio into the cockpit. But other than that she’s all stock. Just ordered Hoen Xenonmatch Plus bulbs for highbeams and fogs ... to match up with OEM HID.

I'm specifically looking popping for the Dinan S1-740 (9/98-2001) tuning. Anyone have any knowledge of anyone having any of this work done?

Thanks in advance!

check coolant level msg

my check coolant level light came on this morning. I checked the expansion tank and was very low if not empty. I checked the bottom of the expansion tank where the sensor is and it was wet. Does anyone know if the expansion tank is bad or a seal around that sensor? Or is another problem. Everyones help is appreciated. Thanks guys. 1998 740i with the 18" m parrell rims black on black

Re: Sure ... what's the deal?

Simeon's car looks like just a normal sweet looking e38 with some rims but under the hood is nothing but normal. She likes to eat Corvettes for breakfast and Porsches for lunch.

I have asked if going all out Dinan was worth and every person I have spoken to has said "No" because of the amount of $$$ you have to lay out. The dollar to pony ratio is too high. M.Mar
