Cheers Dan, never heard of using traffic film remover tho. I have a bottle of rad flush for the job. I changed the thermostat recently and ended up using two different types of antifreeze. I'll get on the case during the week to save any damage.

As above lads, i want to flush me engine and rad out shortly. Is there a drain plug on the engine block itself? Using the rad plug only seems to drain the rad. I got bored with the search function after an hour

Is there an e30zone rival/nemesis? I can picture someone on it now complaining about the zoner they met today!
"Yeah, he was all "i had one of the last 4x4 m3s" so i just humoured him,told him i really wanted one too! Bloody zoners, think they know it all!"

Thats spot on lads, looks like a visit to gsf is on the cards, do i have to get anything else to do the job (gasket,o-ring,etc.)?
This might work out cheaper than a jumper yet!

Where should the needle sit in the temp guage? Mine never strays far from the blue area and i think the hot air blower should be hotter, it takes ages to clear me windows.
Could my thermostat be stuck open?
Or is this how it should be?

Yeah Chris, its a new m-tech item. Thats spot on, cheers!

Just got me a new gear knob for the is, and was wondering the correct fitting procedure? Was told to just pull on it an it'll come off, but the new one looks like theres some sort of clip stuck on the inside??
Just dont want to do damage, knowing my luck that'll happen.
Cheers!

A friend of mine (honest!) changed the diff on an old rwd starlet,tightened everything up, jumped in started the car, and took off through the end of the shed,wrecking shed and car! He had bolted the diff in upside down :roll: I put new taps on a 208ltr barrel, tipped it on its side and started fill...

goin out to fix mine now

My 316i (open diff, standard susp.) used to donut on gravel ok but i couldnt get it round on tarmac, the inside wheel would just spin and knock like a b*st*rd! Im cursed with mechanical sympathy though, had to give it up!
It handled like it was twelve foot high and full of water, kinda miss it now

Another gold star for Chris. Cheers mate

Just reckoned me gear linkages were worn. I'll have a look at it on a lift somewhere see if i can make out the problem, its days are numbered now anyways, im gettin rid soon!

Dont think its the engine, it does hunt for a short while when cold, doesnt last long tho. I'd say its transmission related, feels like the diff has waaay too much backlash in it, Hence i thought it could be the diff mount. Gear stick also fairly loose, but its like that since i got it (nov 2005) it...

Daimlerman, cheers for that, looks like im gonna have to invest in some axle stands. Job sounds like hardship tho. at least i have access to presses etc.
Wullie, how do you check preload on a prop? Would that take some of the lash outta it?
Cheers.

How do you know if your diff mount is worn? My 316i is very jerky in slow/town traffic 1st and 2nd gear, and my stiff go pedal doesnt help. I havent had a chance to put it up on a ramp yet to check it out (its on the list!). Or could it be wear in my gearbox/diff? Fed up of looking like a tool goin ...

Cheers lads. Had a gander on realoem and the part no.s dont match. Think i'll give it a miss so.
Back to the drawing board wit me!

I desperately need a drivers seat for my e30 318is, and have been offered one from an E36 318is by a breaker in england. Before i shell out the dollars i want to be 100% sure it'll just bolt straight in. Does anyone know if it will? Or even if its the same seat(93 E36 318is)?
Cheers!

Anything you need to know is probably on this site,

Also a 325 buyers guide on technical help.

oops!

wrong no. its H446TVH. And owner has lots of history with it.

Hey folks,
does anyone have any info on H 446 TUH? its an e30 318is white.
Its over here in ireland at the mo., might be interested in buying it but the owner hasn't any history with it. Tried to buy a hpi check but the dvla has no record of it,hopefully its recorded as exported already!
Cheers.

I have the same problem, drivers footwell carpet gets very wet. I left a friend in the car during very heavy rain recently and he said it was coming in the bottom of the door. Had to check myself then. Bad door seals maybe?

Im going to have a look at an e30 318is after the weekend and i'd like to know if theres anything specific to this model to watch out for?
Have looked on site cant seem to find a buyers guide.
Greatful for any help fellas.
Cheers!

Is there an electric supercharger on some merc's? Kompressor models?
I could be wrong tho!
