E30 Zone

Hi Brian! Glad to see you're still looking out for us :) But I had to go a bit Rambo on it. The hose had adhered to the beginning of the tube by the tank, and the remainder of the tube was filled with rust and crud. I managed to pull the 2 plastic pipes out the wheelwell, but the hose tore at both e...

Mine is not as bad , but still very poor inside.
You may have better luck on the wanted / parts section

God luck in any case, and welcome to the Zone ;)

Hi Mark,
Was yours rusted inside?
Im having issues removing the hose inside this tube.. So just wanted to know if the reason could be rust has grown in around the hose..

Cheers Dan :D Im hoping the plastic pipes can handle the abuse :( Ive soaked what i could with wd40 the best part of 2 hours, and tried to get in the channel with a obstruction removal device (screwdriver jamming in as far as i could go) to help release, but it is f**king stuck solid :roll: Obi Bria...

The hose was perished behind the metal protection cover. A full tank confirmed the leak. But i didnt know i had to disconnect the plastic breathers also as they are all taped together, and managed to rip the hose where it comes out in the wheel well. Fcuk. How screwd am i ? :) Please share any thoug...

Hi Brian, I wish i' d read this before trying to pull the hose.. :x :? The tank(old type) is not down (trying to save hassle) and i am really struggling with this hose. The old hose has torn by the wheelwell outlet. So i have no means to pull it ouy that way. Ive seen the hose comes into the car at ...

Cheers lads

Sorry Brian , you lost me mate.
Which pin?

But stangest thing happened.. Starded the car today. No problem at all
All worked
Tried the 10 times test.. And it kept working .. So could it be a loose connection behind the switch?

No power to the fuse on 23
Next step, pull switch and check gy/gn wire connection to switch

Brian , found this, Can you confirm? " PostPosted: Wed Aug 17, 2011 9:46 am Post subject: re Reply with quote Yes the main light switch on the dash. Before you pull the switch, pull the connector off it and connect the pins....pin 7 to 1 then 5 then 8. if the lights come on, switch is the problem, i...

You are the man

Ok , ill measure for the constant 12
If im getting 12 to the switch connector , and its not going further , then a new switch?

Mines a lefty , so the distance is pretty short

If i pull the light switch out, what should i be looking for with the grey/green wire?

cheers Brian !
Would the rheostat itself cause a problem? The push pull function works no problem.

Heya. Bit pissed off.. Check control tells me 1) rear position lights fault 2) number plate lights fault. I have no numberplate lights and the right side rear position light is out. Also my cluster and geargnob lights are out And my front headlight position lights are also out?! All from one day to ...

elephant trunk?

Ello lads :) Good , all is good in the land of the milking the honnies :D Yeah its like the realoem, but the trick is if you need a bosch ref, or hella ref, or seimens,nissens, skf, or behr ref. Those numbers are vital if a supplier hasnt got the OE number ref. But sod you then , if you dont want my...

Hello peeps ;)

Www.etk.cc

Almost exactly the same as the bmw issued epc.
But with the nifty addition of being able to see if there are any alternative suppliers / supplier part numbers

Try it.
It is the bollax

Sorry to hijack, .. But i did the relay mod on mine. I had the older type metal relay on the left side (lhd) under the steering cowling. The thin fuse wire was indeed burned over. I got hold of an inline fuse holder and soldered this to the body as shown on the diy. Fitted the housing in place and i...

380mm if its a tech 2 i think
370 if its a tech 2 from an m3 sport evo (suede one)

Tech 1 wheels are also 380mm

Heard good things about the Sparco single bar brace.
Race skids do a fixed version also.
And that ultra racing do also

I think the M insullation is N/A from bmw

I remember someone asking about it a while ago and bmw stating they were not producing anymore

If you cafind one in good nick, then it may cost a fair bit

Matt, it was fairly easy mate, The worse part was rubbing the wheel down with dry W/D paper and cleaning the wheel up propper. Loads of wheel cleaner and a pressure washer helps ;) Then i filled a few cuts and grazes with metal filler ( nothing serious ) and sanded down. Oxide primer ( red one ) ove...

I have a pic of the turner unit installed,
Ill see if i can fish it up ;)

Did a rattlecan job on my baskets a few years back,
Looked perfect, and never flaked or bubbled.
Just made sure to clean them often.

Sad story about that bubble car.. True, it started as a 3 man project to build from the ground up the cleanest e30 m3 ever. An exercize in OCD if you will. The project took numerous years and the cost ran way above what they expected the car would ever recoup in sale. The car was winner of a concour...

If it wasnt for the car, this video may never have been made.

By that logic, FUCK YO CAR BIATCH

Only kidding fam, you know its jokes , and u get the mad props for bizzin that vissle brah,

Depends how brave u are mate. Mine are toned clear coated by a painter. I like them If i could get some startecs / mhw i would, probably :o: But as a passable option, i would do these all day long. But be sure the painter knows what hes doing :wink: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/johnono/E30...

You cant order from bmw in munich unless you are an authorised dealer :( Some aftersales companies like mstyle and schmiedmann have contacts in germany (dealers willing to trade with third parties) In scandinavia, sweden is the largest hub, as parallel import through germany isnt looked well upon ( ...

Ive got a furry tech 2
Worn and scruffy, but its seen some shit maaan

Haha :cool: Update on the VDO type check panels that are sealed. You need to go in from the top. The "panel glass" can be prised out from the middle , and arched to give enough clearance for the tabs on either end to free up, then just lift out the bulb housing, The circuit board can then be plucked...

Ill bump this one again ;)
But be flippin carefull when trying to prise the back cover off..

Sorted the central locking system out , at last i can lock the car
Turned out to be 2 motors and the conto, unit that needed to be changed. Now nice and smooth

Also changed the 4 o-rings on the head>coolant pipe on the s14 so no more water leak

And then took it for a drive for about 4 hours

This i did not know

Just rub the potato over ?
Is it the starch?

But honestly , do not change the rear out to a tech 1, then it will deffo look like a diy job..
