Probably the same pressure washer that stripped the first part off. Or, you could paint it body colour. TMS sells carbon fibre badges that look pretty cool. Imagine what would happen to your cars paint if you hit it with a pressure washer and caught a chip in the paint. You're problem with...

the cable should still be hanging there, should be able to just grab it with vicegrips and give'r a pull.

I'll be sure to take pictures, and make notes. Thanks. I'll be doing the work in my buddy's work shop... he's got tonnes of room, and he owes it to me to give me a hand, as I helped him build his 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 hot-rod:)

well, I've owned (2) 1986 325e's, one manual, and one automatic. My first one was a hand-me-down too. I found the best way to improve the 325e was to chip it. I put a Turner Motorsport chip in it, a K&N air filter, and a Remus cat-back exhaust. I went from having a car that would go 180km/h...

Well, the guy who wrote the article in Pelican Parts is more than likely american, and is pretty much basing the article around a 325is. Americans (North America) never had the 323i. Yes, they obviously had the 325i which is a M20 just like the 323i is a M20, but I don't think emission...

okay, I just went out and tried mine, granted it's not the same model (1992 e34 525i), but I know where you're coming from. They stop at a the highest setting and you'd think thats as far as they go, but if you put it back down to "low", and then jerk them up as fast and as hard as you can...

I don't think so... you shouldn't have a catalytic either... You'd be well off following you exhaust system from the manifold back and see if you have one. I don't think you do though.

No, I'm not making up words. The guibo aka a flex disc... its a rubber disc that connects the driveshaft to the tranny (and it's a pain to get off). http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=BA73&mospid=47325&btnr=26_0009&hg=26&fg=10 (part #2) Your trailing arm bushings might be the culprit...

Better than that piece of cardboard painted black that is supposed to be the lower covering for the dashboard on the drivers side (the thing under the steering column that comes loose if you look at it)???? NO WAY!! [rolleyes]

you mean the coolant bleeder on the radiator? no. mines a piece of garbage (on the E34) but I put teflon tape on it and it's fine... what exactly did you have "fixed"?

Man, I'm really sorry to hear about that Justin. That sucks. Glad your fine.... another E30 bites the dust:( (Whatever you do with the new car, don't touch anything made out of plastic... it'll fall off in your hands.) Was that your first BMW?

its just an X5 that's been rolled over and landed back on it's wheels. Who's designing these cars? [???1]

I've never tried that... if it's the only spot thats open, I back into it. I have pulled in on the wrong side before... but it was very early in the morning, and I either turned the car around, or went to the other side.

maybe the guibo?

Sweet! Now you just need to clean up that valve cover and your engine compartment will look amazing!

take the E-clip off the top of it and let the pedal fall forward... I'm not sure, but it should be fastened to the floor behind where it's hinged.

Actually, I found an E30 1991 325i cabrio with only 112,000km for $6,990CAD in Toronto. Looks beautiful from the add. No money though, and it's automatic. http://www.trader.ca/powerpage/details.aspx?vlotid=579264&adid=5720896

Cool, that's what I figured... Thanks guys!

(keeping in mind it's about 3 degrees celcius where I live right now) Car warms up slowly... the colder the air is, the longer it takes to warm up, but never reaches half way on the temp gauge, only to the first quarter. It sits at the quarter mark in city driving with moderately warm air...

I have no problem being smoked by an M5 Wagon, but it should look mean as hell when it's pulling up behind me. Just looks like a wagon. Remember when the E30 M3 look completely different that a E30 325e? Now you can't tell M cars unless you see twin exhaust pipes or badging. With the way...
