    Brake Job

    just for the record, I don't like ATE brakes, and I like OEM Brembo's. Zimmerman is next on the list to try, or I'd like to try KVR.

    BMW- Are repairs THAT extreme!?!?

    I've never thought they are expensive to repair. Everyone asks me how I can afford to fix these things, and I can truthfully say I've never had any repair that would be any more or less expensive than any other car. Fixing older cars like mine are not a problem for me on my limited budget...

    You don't necessarily need new sensors... unless the current ones got used (your "break lining" light came on). On the other hand they're cheap enough, you might as well get them. The breaks are easy as pie on Bimmers.

    Found me a winter beater!

    That looks sweet! Why are you letting it sit? Just because of the engine bearings? It looks like it's in great shape. AC and everything! What are the big plans?

    318is Air Flow Meter

    I've hear that they shouldn't be cleaned, at least not the little dangley thingy inside it (the actual sensor). What I think they mean though is that it shouldn't be cleaned with anything to do with soaps or solvents. Maybe a few wipes with a clean cloth would help. The inside flaps could be...

    New owner of a BMW

    count yourself as being lucky you didn't buy the 850. Yes it's a sweet car, but it's heavy, guzzles gas, and is expensive to maintain. Parts are easy to find (used and new) for the 328, and lots of people here have lots of knowledge about them. You'll love the convertible. As for a hard...

    Dead Battery or Alternator? Whats going on..

    Let's run through them individually: Low beams out... burnt out or fuse is blown, or a bad connection. Power steering or Alternator? noise: PS Fluid might be low, and is burning out your pump, and will squeel under load. If your alternator is failing, it will indeed sound like you have a...

    I'm guessing you don't have the owners manual, and I'm guessing you're looking for the reservior, it looks like this : http://static.zoovy.com/img/jtoutfitters/W600-H200-Bffffff/32411097164.jpg, and make sure what you're going to pour into it is the right stuff. ATF not power steering fluid...

    not really, but you could try Bavauto http://www.bavauto.com/ BMP Desdign http://www.bmpdesign.com/ Pacific IE http://www.pacificie.com/euro/index.htm If BMP or Bavauto don't have a picture on their site, they still carry ACS parts, and could probable special order them, or at least send you...

    What to do?

    For a quick fix, the hazzard relay should be different from the signal relay... yank it out. See if that works.
