SOLD

Gone to a good home

Thanks for your reply Mart.

Price drop - £6,500 ono.

Can provide all build photos and WhatsApp video / walkaround to anyone interested.

Zero interest in this in nearly 2 months.

Appreciate its an Auto and I am in N.Ireland, but I thought I had priced this competitively based on others for sale for a solid 2-door.

Maybe a bit of a slump in market? Or is it too dear?

Hi,

I am looking for a set of short / sport rear shocks for my 1986 320i.

Bump up.

Anyone a set of either -30mm or -40mm rear springs knocking around?

Thanks

Thanks Steve, Yeah carpets were wet and rear light seals were totally shot.

I put new seals in last week, so hopefully that sorts it.

I will fill hole in...

Morning,

Just wanted to check something - I see below hole in passenger side of boot when I removed the jack.

As it looks quite round, I was wondering if there should be a drain hole here (car is 1986 2-door), or if I need to get welder out?

Many thanks,

Michael

Brian, Many thanks for your response, I will give that a go. I should also point out that I can smell petrol after cranking; not sure if that is relevant.

Evening, Rather than start a new thread, I thought I would bump this as I found it useful for initial troubleshooting. Car is a 1986 320i Auto. It has been off the road since 2010 and I am slowly recommissioning it. After Timing Belt, Water pump, Service and other vacuum line replacements the car ha...

Brian,

Many thanks for your response!

Yes, I had entered the VIN into the search.

eBay version will do nicely!

Thanks again.

Hi,

Can any one confirm the Part No. for the pipe outlined in below pic?

Car is a 1986 320i (Auto).

The pipe is torn and I want to order a replacement, but can't identify it on the REAL OEM Diagrams.

Thanks

Thanks,

I will have a look.

How did you block off the extra holes?

Hi,

I am after a Thermostat housing for an M20 (lower hose connector corroded and fell off!)

Car is a 1986 320i, but are they the same for all M20 engines?

After a good 2nd hand one, or can anyone point me to a new aftermarket supplier?

Thanks

Sorry, meant what sort of paint are you planning on using on the plastic scuttle vents/covers & mirrors.

Tidy work.

What are you planning to use on the plastics?

My 1986 320i has a single pipe.

Just found this:

Think that has answered question...

Hi,

I am in the middle of replacing my sump gasket and have bought a genuine BMW cork gasket.

I note some conflicting opinions online about using sealant as well as the new gasket to get a good seal.

Any thoughts on weather to go with just the gasket or gasket + sealer?

Thanks

Lovely.

Do you know what the suspension set up is / how much it is lowered by?

It sits perfect.

Brian,

Once again, many thanks for this info - I will try that and update.

Many thanks for the reply - I will give both of those a go (and recheck valve clearances) this weekend and revert back!

Just read that over again - is it possible if I set valve clearances when the timing was off that this would be an issue?

Back again with another plea for help! I will try and keep this brief: Car bought as a Project (1986 320i Auto) after selling previous cars ('85 320i & '90 318is) 10 years ago. pic.jpg Previous owner stated it ran, but very badly - hasn't been on the road since 2011 As it was bought as a project, an...

Brian, Many thanks for your reply. That's good to know about the radiator being computable with a Manual as, down the line, I would like to swap the box to manual. Unfortunately, while Autodoc list a suitable replacement, they have no current stock. When I get the car back on the road, I will consid...

Hoping for some assistance with the below... Car is a 1986 (August) 320i Automatic. Radiator is leaking badly and fins are very brittle, so time for a change. Dealer wants c.£360 + VAT for one, so I would rather not. I have looked in usual places and cant seem to find one listed for my car that has ...

Another one here...

Very nice, looks so clean.

Adpators can be got here....

Great skill. Inspiring stuff.

Its one of my life's ambitions to be able to fabricate & weld like that...

I would assume that with those skills, you see rust like that and just casually go about fixing it, whereas for me it would be game over and shell scrapped.

Look forward to updates.
