    Relay help on my 6 please.........

    ... also, if you need a manual, I don't think there is one for 6er's, but there is one for 5er's and they should be pretty much the same car.

    Relay help on my 6 please.........

    Okay, supposedly your looking for relay K9 but if your sunroof works, and your other window works, then I don't think it's the relay, (or the circuit breaker switch) because both your windows and the SR should be on the same circuit. Give it a manual crank if you can, just to give 'er a head...

    Relay help on my 6 please.........

    Hi, I'm not too sure about 6er's, but on my E30 there is a little plastic cap on the side of the door, almost right in the middle, and if you pop it off, there should be a hex head staring back at you... shove an allen key(the car should come with one)/male hex socket in there and giv'er a...

    New BMW Owner

    To heck with passengers in the back seat!!! You're not a taxi driver! [joke] . I wish I still had my (first) parts car... I could have gone and ripped out the door cover, and taken a picture of the innards of a rear door so you'd know what to look for when you try to "slim jim" it open. Looks...

    New Car!!!

    Sweet:) Nice choice for your first car! We'll need pictures very soon! (I don't know anything about the carbs, but if you're getting new ones, shouldn't the filters come with them?)

    New BMW Owner

    Okay, your red and orange LED does infact mean that you are due for an oil change... but really it means nothing.... I don't know anyone who follows this gauge for oil change intervals. It's probably been on for years. It can be reset with a special tool, or by jumping a couple of the...

    i need quick help, will this convertable m3 trunk fit my 2 door 97 328is?

    But you'll still have a 3rd tail light stuck in the middle... but if you're having it repainted, it'll be minor detail to remove it and fill the hole.

    i need quick help, will this convertable m3 trunk fit my 2 door 97 328is?

    I'm not 100% if the lid will fit or not (my guess is that it would), but I think if the trunk the person is selling is from a convertible, it will have the 3rd stop light mounted to it.

    i need help please!

    Man I have no idea how much power it makes. Unfortunately neither car is mine... all I know about the E30 with the Turbo M3 engine is that the owner is part of the Clemson Sports Car Club. Whoever worked on it did an awesome job. At first I thought it was an E30 M3, but the trunk isn't right...

    i need help please!

    You can fit a 5.4L v12 into an E30 too... or a 300hp M42! However the E36 Euro M3 3.2L engine fits perfectly in a E36.

    1978 633csi Driveshaft Help

    You're a brave man taking a 30 year old car to a dealership. Half of the salesmen won't even know what you're driving:) oh! ... and they'll take all your money. and they might even kick you in the nuts just to be sure they got you. [kick]

    Debugging engine knock on 325e

    I know the valves on the 325e's need adjusting every 40,000kms or so (I don't remember the exact intervals). Kinda makes them sound like a diesel. I've never hear one that sounds that bad though.

    1978 633csi Driveshaft Help

    I think most BMW have this "guibo" but I'm not sure how they break though.... I thought they just kind of rotted away, and turned into a ball of rubber and string... maybe that's what you mean. However, it's not too hard to replace them as I recall... you just have to have a good air compressor...

    Hi everyone! I'm not really that new here, but I have never actually introduced myself or my car yet. Haven't had time to wash her and snap any pics 'till now! I gave it a quick wash when I went away this weekend, so it's not looking it's best. I've been a BMW owner for 6 years now, getting...

    history of my car

    That was sweet! Your post and your car. I realized that at the end of the post that I was about 12" from the screen with my jaw dropped. Nice work all round... I enjoyed the pics of the profile gasket replacement, which I've heard so much about but never seen any pics of before. I've hit...

    BMW Mille Miglia 2006 concept

    How the hell did you you tow that thing when it breaks down??? There's no eye hooks to strip out!!! I've seen uglier cars, but I can't remember where or when. If you took the BMW badges off if it, and replaced it with KIA, would it still be cool? What happened to the rear window...

    fuel smell

    ...and as far as I know, you have two fuel tanks... so it might be the rubber line between the main tank, and the expansion tank... heck, you might just have a hole in the top of your tank... it is almost 30 years old.
