E30 Zone

The E36 318is 4door was a run out model highly spec'd to move a few cars to make way for the E46.

All UK E36 318is 4drs had full M'tech kit sports seats, sports suspension etc and were mainly in Avus blue.

Rare in the UK yes as it was the last 500-1000 cars on the production line.

In my 18 years of service I never did see or hear of a baur E24.

As far as I am aware BMW only comissioned the E21 and E30 to have the baur conversion.

Alpina did do a LHD B6 4.8

E36 with Alpina's legendary V8 in it went like a bullet.

that is sexy

OK which lard arse German sat on the X6??

They did the E23 745i in South Africa which was right hand drive though can't remember if it had the M6 engine or 3.5 turbo in it.

They are a very good car I've always wanted one mself, engines are sound as long as they have been looked after. Watch the tailgate as when you press the button to release it it should spring totally up by itself.

you can do it yourself but can be quite awkward as you would need to bend the pipe to shape.

Other than that any reputable garage should be able to do it for you. The pipe itself no more than £10 to £15 it's the labour that will be the worst for the wallet.

Depends if you are a hard or soft braker

Fronts anything from 10k to 25k
Rears 15k to 40k

Get the Crank position Sensor checked out if this is faulty the car will not start.

It could be getting hot and breaking down.

just noticed it in there as well

think this needs moving to technical help you may get more input

My all time favourite car

Just what is so offensive about the Mustang then...

I've always wanted one of these especially the latest version

sounds like what I spent on petrol in my 535i on Scumball doing roughly the same mpg. until it broke down

If you have the system 3 alarm (black oblong remote corner cut off with single button) you need to take your old one apart and see where the score marks and soldered joints are and copy them to the new remote.

It is very tricky to do but can be done outside of the dealership,

if your remote is in the shape of a rectangle with a corner cut off you can get a replacement case

82929402510 from memory was less than £6 when I was working for BMW.

Twin Turbo S62 in an E30 thats going to be awesome Jonsku.

Please keep us posted with the build

Hi There Go for the 06 plate if you can as they had irradicated the turbo problem by then. Modified the Oil breather so it worked properly without clogging up. In my experience with the 1 series they were pretty reliable. If you buy outside of the BMW Dealer network make sure you phone your nearest ...

The B10 V8's used the same brakes as the M5

or that the parts department might have been shut on saturday? you only asked on friday dinnertime.... A lot of parts departments close for stock-taking on Friday lunchtime and re-open Monday morning. Agreed but they should inform of this if they were stock taking so posts like this do not happen

Ever thought that he may have a few days off??

Well there is 5 of them in the parts and each has access to this.

Be aware of the Coolant Expansion bottle.

They are prone to splitting if there is the slightest of over pressure in the system.

The rear trailing arm front bushes are the same as the E36.

Nice car for an "OLD MAN"

Part numbers you need from memory

Put a post up on the genuine bmw parts section and they will give you a price on it

I would love to help except for 2 reasons

1. I currently do not own an E30

2. I work most evenings and every weekend

The AC Schnitzer CLSII.

The best one was the geen colour with matching wheels gonna try find a picture.

My old 535i on track £10 would get me 22 miles

on the scumball run a tank of fuel (£96 at the time) would get me just under 400 miles

The easiest way to tell if a donor car has ews or not is to check the cars key blade colour

Silver - NON EWS

Bronze - EWS

Alternatively is to check the build date

pre 01/95 NON EWS

post 01/95 with EWS.
Hope this helps
