Re: front brakes binding
Adjusting pedal height is the last process before setting brake light switch position You need to ensure the servo pushrod is set to the correct position relative to the master cylinder before even fitting them to the car. On E30 servos the pushrod is usually flush with the face of the servo Sorry ...

Looks like the bar/ master cylinder bar have been adjusted at some point , If i back the bar running from the pass side to the drivers off the front brakes don't bind (still a wee bit drag but not excessive imho) Question now is is there a way to do a factor reset on the brake adjustment bars/rods? ...

Been having a look at this . If I disconnect the hose off the servo I can blow into the engine put can't suck which I think is right and the check valve is working .

Re: Thinking of buying a f30
I bought a F31 (touring) 330d around 6 months ago and its been a great car so far. It's my first diesel but I think the engine is great and just keeps pulling. The engine noise from in the cabin sounds pretty good IMO, I test drove the 320d as well and that sounded like a tractor. The 330d is much ...

Re: Thinking of buying a f30
Good mate of mine had 330d and then 330i. That straight six diesel was a weapon with the torque it had. 330i was probably faster but for double the consumption. One thing he never got on with was the ride, rock hard on both. For me I own nothing BMW newer than 2004 :D . Nothing they have done since...

Anyone running one of these and what engine/experience have you had ? Keep reading stories of failed timing chains on the 320d and i was thinking on the 330d which is more or less the same engine for what i can see . Wondering if i should go for a petrol engine ( only reason i'm thinking 330d is the...

Re: e38 to e36 oil level plug
There shouldn't be much of a problem adding the oil sensor wires to an E36 loom, especially if you already have a plug that fits the sensor, but is the E38 oil sensor compatible. At some point BMW moved away from a simple float switch arrangement, and moved to a weird system based on (IIRC) thermal...

Re: e38 to e36 oil level plug
What engine is the E38 sensor from and what engine is the E36 loom? The fact the earth wire in the E36 plug is in pin 1 makes me wonder if it is actually the oil level sensor plug? as they are usually pin 2 Here is an M50 sensor diagram next to an E30 M20 diagram The pin numbers on the plug have th...

Re: weird cluster and light issue
That gauge is a 63 litre version, if the drivers side sensor wire is trapped/damaged and shorting to earth this would give a faulty fuel level of exactly 1 half when the other side of the tank is empty (as you have confirmed) The low level warning signal wire is also on the drivers side When you fi...

Since you have an OBC, test with the yellow plug disconnected as well. It will be even weirder if this makes a difference, but it's more data.
