I had a problem with my windscreen wipers, but thought to yself that I would have a go at fixing them. So, I come onn here and have a search for 'wipers' pick the thread that exactly describe my problems, and hey presto, 2 hours later, my wipers are done. I hwve literally saved hundreds of pounds ju...

what beauty? someones taken a large blue turd and peeled bits off it... oh no wait, that is a car...I can see a rear view mirror

hohohohohohhehhehehehehhee.

where is that on the m40 316 engine? Mine has exactly the same symptoms, rough idle for 5-10 mins and running rich.

cheers!

for an e30 316i?

want to give mine a service instead of spending £99 at kwik fit. ta.

Hi Brett. It's ok. I have sourced a pump and relay from someone else on here. thanks anyway. Cheers, easy.

prices please. 316i '89. that's be the in-tank one. twin feed. Thanks. easy

hey. are you still there? do you sell fuel pumps for a '89 316i? I work just down the road at Cosford.

Thanks mate. will ask in wanted parts for a pump then. Cheers, easy

what's the difference between a fuel injector pump and a fuel pump in-tank? I've been on GSF car parts, and an injector pump is £60-odd quid, but an in tank fuel pump is £150 quid. I want to get my car going, but want it to last. What's the best solution/ buy one off ebay £25.99 buy it now, or buy f...

expensive car, that. 145K and no tax?

watch out for the fuel pump/relay etc, and make sure it has some sort of history at that mileage. cheers, easy.

what happened, anything?

right. after changing my fuel pump 2 weeks ago, my car's stopped working again. It's blowing the 7.5A fuse every time I try and start it, it's turning on the starter but not starting. Relay? or another fuel pump? Which one is the fuel relay?

e30 316i by the way. '89. thanks in advance...

Gravy.

I don't mind. a working cd player is a working cd player. Blaupunkt? that'll do me. Five quid? icing.

Yep. peice of the proverbial. I went to a car boot sale this morning, and got myself a blaupunkt cd300 car cd player ,plugged it into my car, entered the code (which some helpful soul had written on the top) and away it went.

Total cost? five of your finest English puonds.

happy as f*ck.

responsibly. How do you do it? I don't think my local recycling center will be too happy to see it.

ok thanks guys done it now. took me an hour, but i am hungover!

replacing the fuel pump, are there any extra bits I might need, i.e. seals, rubber compound, etc? And any tips, other than disconnecting the battery?

there's an E30 place in Darlaston?!?! as in Darlaston in Wolves, or Darlaston somewhere else?

Hehehe. Thanks, will do. Cheers, guys! ('n' Gals...?)

flet?
i meant flat.

ok, thanks! will check. to be honest, i was just driving along a straight, flet road, and it went buzzy. that's a technical term, by the way.

all I need now is the destructions for doing this. Anyone?

Oh, and can I just say, I'm mighty impressed by the speed and helpfulness of you guys. Thanks!

cool. can you pm me your addy please, and I can sort out payment?

ok brill. How much for the pump, buddy?

thanks guys. any drama's about getting hold of one of these cheap? and is it a do it yourself job or do I have to take it to a garage?

I have just been driving along, (316i, 1989) and a loud (from inside the car) buzzing started. stopped, and with engine running, got out to take a look. buzzing noise much quieter outside. coming from what I assume is the fuel tank. drivers side, under rear seat. got down on ground to feel my way ar...

thanks guys.

I have just bought a 316, and need to replace the bulbs that light up the rear number plate, or the fuse that works them. Any ideas? thanks.
