E30 Zone

nice one.

i have checked the part numbers for front wings on my cabby and also for a saloon and touring. the cabby has different part numbers. do any of you fellas know what the differences are.

ta.

ok, lets start again...... a couple of weeks ago, i had an annoying rattle on my other car which is an e39, 520i. i posted on the 5 series forum and have managed to fix the problem today. i thought this would or could possibly be relevant to other zoners on here that may have a double vanos engine i...

click the link fuzzy, i couldnt be bothered to write the whole story all over again.

that all depends how i get on with it

no problem. just need some good weather to do it.

well, ive just bought the 345 dollar one. i was thinking of getting one supplied and fitted. but at 216 quid delivered, its worth a go.

his feedback dont look too bad for the e30 ones. see how it goes.

ok, ebay got the better of me. i have been on the american site again and have bought the german spec one for 345 bucks. i will post on the other topic which is live at the mo.

check this site out. it gives you a good insight into whats involved with quite good pictures.

look under maintenance and then under engine.

its straight forward enough mate, just takes a bit of time. there are a few realy good write ups on the net. the haynes manual is not that good for pics.

cheers for the link. i emailed a place in south london. they want 495 fitted. its probably worth getting it done by a professional like these. if it is 150 roughly to have it fitted, i may as well go to work, earn the money, and at least it will be stress free.

well, i ordered a new top from the listing on ebay.com. the american site. i have been told they cant send it to me from england. they can only send direct to the states. if i want one sent, it will be an extra 130 quid. why is it half as much again for us. am i missing something here.

what is the difference between manual and leccy hoods

when i was doing the cylinder head on the car, i had to push the car over a little bit on the drive so i could get my van on too. one of the helpers was pushing it on the canvass and it has split. not too bad, but the water is now getting in. how easy is it to change the top yourself. have any of yo...

it took me 9 months to sort mine out. i hope for your pockets sake that it all goes sweet. before i bought my car, the lady had the head gasket done because the rad blew. her mechanic fitted a new rad and did the gasket. the head was probably cracked way back then. luckily, i only give 850 for it.

just checked on realoem and the part numbers are the same. using 1992 cabby.

cheers nelly for the head and exhaust. its now done and i got the car mot`ed today. water started pissin out at the mot station. one of the hose clips is fekced. lucky i know the lads there, so it wasnt too much of a deal. anyway. all the best.

i had the exact same thing happen on my 325i cabby. i lent the car to my mate last august when he came over for a weeks holiday from the states. he said at the time he thought that it was on its way out. so, i checked the cap and it was full of goo. :( i pulled the head off, got it pressure tested a...

ive just insured it with lancaster. 214 quid. job done. hopefully get the exhaust fitted on sunday. book it in for mot on monday. all i need now is some suuunnshiiinee.

Ok, at 700 miles it's 35p-ish. i stand corrected :o: i think i must of put the decimal in the wrong place. many thanks for the links by the way. i am going to try a few now. i tried herts insurance. they were the ones who came up with 240. they insured me last year for 185 fully comp. feck knows wh...

Oh, and your calculation's a bit off - £240 at 4000 miles is 6p per mile! the new insurance quote offered 4000 miles to me as a max. last year, i only drove around 700 miles. i didnt need the 4000 miles. trouble is, if i reduced it to say 2000 miles a year, then you can bet your last pound you woul...

ive done all the searches on the net, etc for a cheap insurance quote for my 325i cabby. i have used all of my no claims bonus on my work van so will have to pay top price. the best ive came up with is 240 tpft. i am 41, max 4000 miles per year. car on drive. do any of you people know of any compani...

if the head has got a crack in it somewhere, is it possible to have it welded and then machined. i am in the same boat with my 325 cab at the mo. probably have a go at it myself when i find the time.

got back from holiday and realised the 5 series tax and mot were out, so the missus used my toy for a week or so. i gets a call from her to say its over heating. when i got home, i pulled the dipstick and sure enough, it looked like pugwash. to save me a lot of time and hassle, can any of you people...

hi, i bought one from america. it took about 3 weeks to come. i got it off ebay. here is a link for a firm in the states. i paid Ã‚£90 for mine but got charged another Ã‚£17 by the post office for customs import duty, etc. it took me about a half hour to fit on my own. not too hard. the fit can only...

nice one. i managed to sort the problem out. there was a bad connection on the drivers side too. seems its had the problem before as the previous keeper had the plug bridged through the multi plug. the connections were 5hite, to say the least. all that was needed was to re crimp the wires, job done....

i have managed to get all the electrics working on my convertible except the passenger side door mirror. i have put the meter across all the wires and the blue and black wire has no power to it when you operate the mirror switch. i have checked at the switch and there is power there. i have taken th...
