Car all set for a resto - need the part numbers for rear inner arches - left & right

Cheers

My 325i SE is about to go in for a mini restoration but I need a few parts. Its a 1990 2 door BMW 325i SE. The rear valance is shot and rusted beyond repair. What I need to know is whether this is a single panel or otherwise. i've found what is referred to as "Tail Panel Between Taillights" on www.s...

15 on the OEM diagram is what i'm looking for cheers although i might try the other part..

As above my screenwash has packed up, i think the valve which is connected to the hoses housed under the bonnet is kaput - does anyone know the part name / ID

Cheers

Thanks guys, fine again last night so will see how it is today but i think i'll get it looked at this week, I have an 1990 325i SE

Car is chugging and spluttering intermittently particularly in 2nd gear. Was going to put it into the garage last week but it seemed to sort itself out but when i started it this morning it started up again and I struggled to get it home. I had a similar problem 6 months ago and the mechanic said he...

Thanks for the help, I'm talking it to the garage tomorrow. Would a clutch on the way out emit a burning smell? - I've had about every problem under the sun with E30's but never had a clutch go. It is however driving ok and the clutch pedal doesn't seem any stiffer or otherwise than normal. If it is...

As above since yesterday i've noticed a burning smell coming from the engine bay. Its a dry acrid burning smell, no smoke and no indication on the dash that anythings wrong (temp guage is fine). Seems to be coming from the radiator area but I can't see anything wrong. The radiator was replaced about...

Cool, thanks

As above I have a rust hole in the passenger side front wing from the top of the side skirt along the arch to just below trim below the side repeater, probably about the size fag packet side on - driver side is fine. Is this an MOT fail?, car is due an MOT to sort out a few minor niggles then the pl...

Putting her in for a full service prior to a visit to the bodyshop for rear replacement arches x 2 and re-spray. Want to be sure that all is well before i spend a fortune in the bodyshop. Car hasn't been serviced for a while and i was going to get as much checked/replaced as possible (within reason)...

Got a quote for getting rear arches cut out and replaced. Contaced both Hadrians Panels £47.50 & VAT each side and Cleveland Panels who are cheaper at £34.65 & VAT Has anyone experience of getting this job done? I take it the panels fit properly - have already checked that I'm getting facelift parts...

Bugger that then, thanks

Have found a nice leather interior from a 4 door 89 325i but just wondering if it'll fit in my 2-door?

Tried to start her up, car semi started, alarm went off, car stalled, clicked and will now not start. All indicaters are on and will not go off...

Flat battery but have i also tripped the imobiliser???

Cheers for your help

That will explain why I couldn't find it on the OEM site

Arch replacement kit it is

Thanks

Motor is rusting bad at the rear arches. I was considering trying to get a rear arch replacement kit for each side but then stumbled upon this on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-E30-N-S-R-1-4-Panel-/400224707018?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5d2f4061ca#ht_500wt_1156 From a bodysh...

Lately when starting her up the power steering groans when taking off, once warmed up no problems.

Power steering on the way out or more fluid required?

Car off for MOT tomorrow so any ideas much appreciated

As above, both rear arches starting to go, one is particularly bad. Took the car to the bodyshop today and was told to try and get a some new rear arches.

Anyone know where I could source some?, would a breakers cut them out to size or can you get a "kit" so to speak?

Cheers

I want to do this too, surely someones done it?

Thanks

I had the bushes replaced in my last E30, from what I can see in the service history of my new one its never been done. I reckon thats whats needing done...

Quick question

When decelerating the steering wheel starts to judder, this only happens when decelerating to a standstill ie at a junction.

Am I right in saying I probably need new bushes?, think i've had this before and this sorted it.

Cheers

Impressive service, will use again

Thanks for the pic, which part is the bottom end of the strut connected to because its not there anymore!

During the recent snowy conditions I detected a grinding/clunking noise from the rear passenger side. My car is lowered 60mm all round and now post grinding noise have noticed the back end sliding out especially when going over bumpy surfaces and general poor handling. Now that the snow has gone I'v...

2.5, can't see the bolts on ebay but presume the dealers will supply relatively cheap?

Thinking of tidying up the engine bay and have seen both black and chrom rocker covers and manifolds on ebay which look sweet.

Is it just a straight swap of both sections or do I need anything else (i.e. new bolts etc)

Cheers

Just had my E30 325i SE 1990 (2-door) serviced and in the Additional Information section the mechanic has noted the following: Instrument Cluster Illumination Burnt I have a spare cluster, is this just a straight swap, the lights on the speedo are out but everthing else works, the bulbs were replace...

Cheers guys.

I've had the kids all day and a good few beers now so will get some oil in the morning and start her up as advised.

Its nice and wet here so the thrashing part should be fun

Just changed the battery after the frost killed the old one. Starts on the button now but the rev counter is now idleing at about 500 rather that 1000 as it was before and is stalling between the gears. How do I fix this - I need to turn something up a bit don't I? :o: Also the engine oil light just...

Just switched my stainless scorpion exhaust from my old red E30 to my new black one and noticed that the numpty in the bodyshop has blasted a section of the exhaust in red paint when he did the rear valance a couple of years ago. Turps, a scrubbing brush and some elbow grease or will that feck up th...

How do you get the lense off?

I've unscrewed em but they're jammed at the top, does the bumper need to come off to get at them?

Cheers
