Chances are a pipe going to a washer jet has partly fallen off or split
Check those I would
And if that fails whip the pump out of the bottle and have a look to see if his pick up is clear

It will be majorly heavy
And if the pumps running but with no fluid in it'll probably dry out, and start to fall to bits when the bearings break up
Driving a car with failed power steering is nothing like driving a car that isn't fitted with power steering

I've been playing with it tonight, and it's behaving slightly differently today When throttled it just stalls I've unbolted the turbo from the manifold and the car revs up as normal I think the particulate filter is clogged solid and the highly excessive back pressure is preventing the engine from r...

Cheers mate I'll have a look when the sun comes back up

Hi guys After some help please Working on an E90 m47 at home here His turbo had gone so I've replaced the turbo this morning Whilst at it I did the swirl flap blanks Since carrying out the work I've got next to no throttle response I can't even raise it off from idle And if put into drive or reverse...

Your shock absorbers won't change your ride height
The ride height is down to the springs

Nothing lasts forever

Not sure if there's one local but I used to sell alot of wheels and use interlink express

Might be worth renewal John

Hammer a torx bit into the rounded out Allen key hole

Not even a chance it could push enough air through, would mostly just cause a restriction

Bit poor that

23 and on my 7th E30

Or your ignition timing could be out
They had to be retarded to run on lead free petrol

Sounds like a worn out cam to me

I'll up load some soon!
Absolutely chuffed to bits with it
A fantastic And well put together car!
Cheers monkey!

if your struggling bleeding it, try jacking the front up while its cold and filling the system right up, then running it up while its jacked up like that
ive found that to help work airlocks to the top of the system before

20 march the car having no stereo had gotten boring on the ears, with only the m40 with its worn out cam ticking away, and the gearbox making grating noises i decided it would be worth looking into buying a stereo so we took a trip to a local stereo / in car enterttainment shop to browse and see wha...

Very happy
Extremely fast delivery
Brilliant price
Highly recommended

i cant imagine a cv joint having run dry because theres normally a preoper amount of grease in there and to lose enough to go dry would make a real mess,
potentially more likely to be a disc back plate fouling something, noisy wheel bearing or something like that

looking good b15nac

I'm not sure, my box hasn't arrived yet but when it does I'll measure it up because I'd be up for that if it saves me buying a prop! Cheers

Okey doke I'll get one sorted cheers for that

I've purchased an m42 gearbox for my m40 318i
Just wondered if I can adjust the prop length enough on the splines
Or do I need an m42 gearboxs prop
As I know the m42 gearbox is slightly longer?

25 February 2012 While stood out on the drive with Alan and John we were approached by a younger lad called Arron asking us if we were interested in his e reg 318i non starter So we agreed to go and view the car the following day 26 February 2012 We set off in the 7 series to go and see the car and ...

When putting a late engine into a early car Pin 20 will most likely need blanking off As on later cars it's a positive feed for abs out of the engine loom and the car loom has an earth on that pin And I'm not sure if it will affect you or not but early cars have a separate plug for the fuel consumpt...

I've got a 60/40 drop on my cab with 17" wheels and occassionly if pulling away on lock on and incline rub the arches

Apart from that alls well it's been like it for over two years now without any trouble besides wearing rear tyres

i had a similar sounding problem when i changed from a standard wheel to a tech 2 mine was not earthing properly normally but was working when pushing on the wheel and depressing the horn at the same time the power is fed by the contact on the column that rubs against the slip ring on the wheel so i...
