#Car-Buy/Sell Looking to buy this BMW E60 530i as a weekend car. What should I pay?
It's a one owner car, registered in 2011.
What should I lookout for and how's the spare parts availability?

Bike service(Activa)
Went for 1st year service (3rd free service),
Service advisor went for a small ride within the service floor, can back and said,
BIKE HAVING FULL BODY VIBRATIONS.
I don’t feel any new vibration, it’s same as the new one, very less driven 2500km in a year.
He was persistent on the full body alignment, I didn’t knew that existed for bikes. I refused to do it.
Cost: ₹800
Later he added ₹650 for tyre puncture liquid refill.
I refused it as well.
Should I be worried?
Noob here, should I change service center next time??
Thank You.☺️

Led interior lights issue
Hi everyone,
I changed the two roof lights in my 2014 Toyota Innova to 5W LED bulbs. They worked fine initially, but suddenly all interior lights stopped working. The high-beam and door-open indicators on the dashboard also stopped working.
I found that a fuse had blown. The same issue happened once before, after installing LEDs.
The replacement LEDs also have slight blinking, so I’m planning to switch back to the original halogen bulbs.
My questions:
● Can LED bulbs cause fuses to blow?
● Could my car’s small battery be the reason?
● Is it better to stick with the original halogen bulbs?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

#BikeRepair Access 125 front disc gets locked making it impossible to move bike.
The front disc brake of my access 125 gets locked quite frequently and I am unable to move the bike. It gets jammed. I have to wait for it to cool down and then continue riding.
I showed it to a few local mechanics but none were able to resolve the issue only temporary fixes that last a month or two or until the temperatures rise.
Has anyone faced this? How to resolve or what’s the issue?
Please help and thank you.

S-Cross 1.3 DDiS: Need front lower bumper garnish stock & brake pad recommendations in North Bangalore!
I drive a Maruti S-Cross 1.3 DDiS and need to get a couple of things fixed:
Front Lower Bumper (Lower Garnish): The Yelahanka Nexa/Maruti showroom says it's out of stock. Has anyone recently sourced S-Cross body parts around North Bangalore, or know a Maruti Service Center / MGP outlet nearby that actually keeps body inventory?
Brake Pads & Noise: Getting some squealing/braking noise and it’s time for a pad replacement.
Should I stick to OEM (TVS Girling/MGP), or are there better aftermarket alternatives like EBC, Brembo, or Bosch for better bite?
Pro-tip check: Has anyone used Baleno RS pads for the rear, or TVS Girling HD pads up front?
Garage Recommendations: Any reliable independent garages or honest Maruti Authorised Service Stations (MASS) around Yelahanka, Sahakarnagar, Vidyaranyapura, or Hebbal? Looking for places that won't try to pad the bill with random add-ons.
