Thanks for the reply!

I'm a bit stupid mate, where exactly is it, and what do I need to remove to get to it?

Cheers

Hi all, My 325i is having a few issues of late! Every now and then the OBC and all the instrument cluster dials go completly dead, but then come back to life for a short period of time? I've been told this could be a bad earth, but I've had a look around the battery and cleaned up the terminal and s...

Sweet, thanks fellas!

Hi all, no I'm not that much of an idiot, but I want to know if there is a way of manually opening an electric sunroof with a knackered motor?

The end result is to be able to actually remove the old rusty sunroof and fit my new one, along with a new motor!

Cheers

Nice one fellas!

If when the cars off the ground and you spin one wheel, and the other spins the opposite way, that means it's an open diff right?

OK mate cheers, but how do you determine the .64 or .91?

Cheer mate, but I'm a bit thick, can you explain a bit further?

Thanks!

Hi all, I'm trying to find out what ratio a diff is. I know there's a bendy small plate on it that holds this information, but it was rusty so I tried cleaning it a little and I'm now left with a very shiny piece of metal! Is there any other way of obtaining this information? Part numbers on the sid...

What if it had an M20 lump in it? Seriously...

You the man!

Cheers

As above, cheers!

Thanks for all your help fellas!

Hi all, how can you check that a MTEC II kit is genuine, with it still being on the car?

Cheers

SNAP!

So, how can we find out whether it's our clutches, or gearboxes!

Cheers Mark, sounds like fun!

Hi all, trying to remove the rear seats from the touring, got the base's out no problem, but can't get the rest of them out, lokked around but no bolts to be seen?

Help!

Cheers

Bought a Bentley manual from Jason, perfect transaction!

...auto gearbox on its own, without the engine?

Thanks as always

But the clutch doesn't slip one bit?

Cheers

mincedbeef, cheers mate, have had a look, and as far as I can tell, all looks well! Thanks bling and zimmer! I take it a thrust bearing is a clutch out job? Are we sure it's the thrust bearing? From cold the car does not judder, but the hotter it gets, it starts to judder on the biting point when yo...

Very valid point mate, I may ask him if he has another one just in case

Thanks for all the help guys, doesn't look like too much of a bad job!

fuzzy, Ã‚£150 for a new pump

I've found a good second hand one from a low mileage motor for Ã‚£20 delivered

Hi all, how easy to replace and whereabouts is a 325i touring fuel pump?

(I know, I know, I'm on the hunt for a Bentley repair manual!)

Cheers gazza

Chris, what kind of price are we talking, and what exactly does it include?

Not a lot on my 325i, I don't really want to calculate it, as I don't feel like crying right now

Hi all,

Does anybody know a good price for the headlamp wipers, motor, and neccesary wiring?

Cheers

Hi all,

Does anybody know what 14" BBS are worth, with no/rubbish tyres, average nick?

Cheers

Hi all, when I let off at the biting point with no revs, or very little revs the car really judders, and when I turn the car off, I get a really bad rattle noise; it is also there faintly whenever I let the clutch out? I'm guessing this is a clutch problem, but as far as I can tell, the clutch is OK...

upski

As above really, for someone with little mechanical knowledge?

Cheers

Thanks for all the replies guys, btw it's a 325i!

I was certain it wasn't a fuel leak problem, but now I'm not sure, I thought it was overfuelling or something?

Hi all,

I always get a really strong smell of petrol whenever I drive my car, I've checked all the usual places for leaks and I can definetly say it's not leaking from anywhere?

Cheers

Cheers mate, I gave that area a jetwash, but still can't see where the leak is coming from!

Gorgeous, and a decent engine!
