Re: Some up to date pictures of my more door.

For sale!!! Needs a few finishing trims putting on which are with the car! And think it needs a new brake servo too. Has 9 months MOT.

Re: M3, Manhole cover, Smashed sump, WITH PICS

I smashed my sump, whole wasn't as bad as that bud I didn't realise straight away and drove for a little while. Granted it was only a m20b20, but it was fine still. So hopefully yours is fine.

Re: Failed windscreen wipers

Found it under the relay. What an idiot. Tried the connections and nothing happened. Doesn't even sound like the motor is trying to work and the connections to the motor seem fine. So I'm guessing its a duff motor?

Re: Failed windscreen wipers

How do I tell which one is 53 or 53b etc? The surface under the relays doesn't have any marking on it that I can see and all I can find in the wiki is this:http://www.e30zone.net/e30zonewiki/index.php/Fuse_Box

Which doesn't say what's what either in the respect.

Thanks
