Re: coolant drain on 320i

Would it be ok to just use the radiator hose to drain it?
Or does anyone have a link to a guide?

I was wondering tools come in the e30 tool kit (my car is an 88 facelift 320i if that makes a difference). I'm missing a few of the tools and am wondering whats missing?

Is there meant to be a spark plug socket?

Thanks for your help :D

Door Cards

Hey Guys,

A simple question from a simple newbie.
How do I take the door cards off/out?
The car is a facelift sedan with the cloth door cards not the leather ones and electric windows.

water problem

Hi guys,

Whenever it rains or I was my car a get a small pool of water in the centre of the carpet infront of the drivers seat (around the vinyl insert). There is no water trail leading from the door so I don't think it is coming in thru there. Does anyone have any ideas?
