Update.

Wheel back on, car driven home, so not as bad as it could of been, dont know all the info yet but Mummy-boo will most probably be on after we've eaten with full story.

We are in Henlow, on Henlow camp, I'll get stitch to fill you all in when they get back.

Hopefully it will just be minor damage then, nothing to break the bank fingers crossed.

Hi all, bit of a funny but very bad thing just happened to Mummy-boos tourer, traveling approx 60 mph the passenger side rear wheel decided it was too good for the car and dissapeared accross a field and into a brook. Meanwhile the car dropped and ground to a halt, is the damage from this going to b...

Yeah, would cause a major stir if daz posted his pic on here

now do I be evil and post it for him??? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Nahh, I'm not that evil.
Here's me and my car tho

316i engine has 318i head, reprofiled cam, bigger throttle body and AFM,

oh yeah, and what about 318i injectors, could they go on a 316i?

Thanx, Claire

kk, kool, thanx

thankyou

does the E30 have one????

If yes, where?

he put it on the cog, did the squeezy test, measured it, did the sqeezy test again.

he's gonna take it to the garage tomorrow cos he's now feeling really bad cos it sounds lke he's done something bad.

thanks for all your help guys.

he says he lined up the marks on the case and the top of the belt.

all this because i don't know anything about my car.

**ian's looking all a bit "i didn't do that!"**

i dont think he did that. he's now trying to justify not checking it.

i'll try to get him to check it tomorrow (when the light has returned!)

thanks brianmoooore!! anything else that would be worth checking if it isn't the timing belt??

cool.
how would you check the timing belt??
do you need a flashy light thing??
we don't have one of them.

dunno about the effect on a car but it's good stuff when in labour!!!! i never felt so good before!!

just been out in it and the poor thing doesn't seem to like it.
stalled 4 times, smells really bad, starts to really scream at us at around 3000 revs where it used to be around 5000.
can anyone suggest anything that would fix it?? suggestions of things to check would be good too.

ian just changed our 316i cylinder head for a 318i cylinder head.

why do we now squeak??? would this be the reprofiled cam bedding in (oh yeah put one of them in as well!!)

had the same on the sierra (now off to be a turbo with new owners

) it went away after 150 miles.

class guy. great communicator.
thank you sooooo much.
thank you for listening and understanding!!!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!

thank you

a little off topic but i think on the kids front there wasn't really a lot. next year i'm gonna be bringing lotsa stuff to keep nichola quiet so i'll volunteer to be zone babysitter if the need is there, just makes adults free to go do adulty stuff with out the kids whining!!! i'll definatley stick ...

we have a 316i thats done 170,000 miles. the tappets are fooked so ian decided to change the cylinder head and get a new cam - which will get fitted once bob s sends it. we started the transaction before we read the whole mess with spadge. we think we might wait til the cam gets here to fit the cyli...

HAD SOME ON, BUT THEN REMOVED THEM COS WE WERE CATCHING ON THEM ALL THE TIME. STILL GOT THEM THOUGH, JUST NOT ON THE CAR.

Not vandalised while we've had it, but now we're sorting the car out it looks like the previous owner REALLY ABUSED it. Huge gauge in the drivers wing, random bolts holding the engine together, exhaust held on by bathroom sealent and looking through the reciepts its had drivers side windows replaced...

no problem just thought i'd ask.
enjoy your day out, if we can't get someone to help we probably take ikkle nichola out for the day.

is anyone free this weekend near us???
if Pal318is is busy we can't change our cylinder head over. we can feed and water our 'man (or woman) in shining amour!!
a link to a step by step guide would be helpful too.

May well have some time free, but don't hold me to it yet. Need to check the agenda, what time you thinking of?? Do you just want to swap it? Pal yeah we just wanna swap it over. let us know if you can make it, will PM you our number so you can call us. probably looking at around lunch or afternoon...

Anyone free around RAF Henlow (Bedfordshire) on Saturday??

We need a hand changing our cylinder head over!

But we need some help.

Pleeeeeeeaase help us!
