Another plus from the grumpy one. Trustworthy, looks after his items (the two manuals are mint!), sent out the books asap and very, very well packed. Thanks very much Sean. If I can ever return the favour in parts, advice etc please feel free to let me return the good deed. Tash abigredtash@gmail.co...

I have Ant's Mrs 325 touring on a standard slush box with his chip fitted. Get in touch with Ant via www.fastbimmer.co.uk and have a natter with the man. The 'Green Meanie' pulls like a train and takes off like a rocket once you approach 4K. It will go off the clock on the flat. Take a dive up and s...

Sorry if this comment comes across as attempting to get you to suck eggs but remember any system used has to be able to withstand the rigors of a crash and hold the seat in place.

Legend, cheers bud the sun has not yet risen here and already I have learnt something new.
Today could be a good day. I'll just keep away from here and await Chris's reply.

if the engine has been run without this first being sorted it'll be kaput and cheaper to source another engine.

Ah just seen your location, best pull the head and get some photos of whats what.

bud all that I can make out from that vid is your elbow, a steering wheel (tech 1) a few random wobbly panning shots of bits under the bonnet. Can we have a picture please that is lit and shows the item you are trying to sort.

help us help you.

just get a good second hand rack from a trader/fragger on here or if anywhere near the M25 J2 have a look here www.fastbimmer.co.uk Wipers could be down to the stalk, wiring issue (check the motor connector) and also the wiper motor. The rack swap from an E36 is a personal taste and dependent on you...

my advice would be not to drive at night untill its sorted. Where are you located? a good auto electrician will rectify the shoddy, dangrous work done to your car. What HID system is fitted? any pics of the units (not the lamps or housing, the balast units) wiring and any relays or other units assoc...

www.rclick.co.uk bud. A dam fine company with good, reliable products that are well thought out.
Then the original keys can be kept safe and suffer no more wear.

Crumbs I'm surprised I haven't gone off one one?
It must be late

Right click get my vote. Good products, great service and even better support.
And Mr Moore rates them iirc

It'll be worth replacing the bearing visable once the gearbox, clutch and flywheel. Its the small one at the back of the block, sorry I don't know its name or able to pull up a link to real oem as I'm only using a laptop and my bently manual is yet to arrive. I'll bet Will will beat me to the name o...

ohh my car is better than yours?? I failto understand what that has to do with a total disreguard for simple mechanics? Have you seen any of my tourings or any other vehicle I have owned? As Kos states its a head issue making all that noise, you are either unable to tell the truth, unable to diagnos...

Blatent disrespet and a complete lack of understanding as to what it entails to be a qualified ENGINEER is the issue here. This country became great because of enginneers and the rigorous and continuing training and testing of those that hold this hallowed title. ANY that dismiss this are those that...

that one would like nice as a two door Why? How? Stop thinking ridculous ideas, putting a few weld spots and then filling in the shut lines on a car is not an improvment. A benifit of a two door is the relocation of the pillar which is not done purely for the access to the rear seats. Now that I've...

sorry for only just getting back chaz txt me ya number and I'll call you when I arrise. I'm off to sidcup tomorrow to drop a car off but I can do that anytime so let me know when you are about and I'll get it all lined up, well at least my running about, your pannels will take a little longer. ps I'...

I find waste a stupid trait and at sime time down the line another crank, head or vital part will be required. Go and cost a new crank from BMW as I doubt you'll get much change from a bag. For the moral\ethical side of the issue I'll point you in the direction of Easter Island and its trees or lack...

:wave: Fancy a drive over to Brands Hatch? I'll be able to get something sorted or know a man that can. May need some pic's of the under side of the seats first and maybe the odd measurement to make it a bolt on job. Will show my fabricator the seats first as he may just nod and stick a few bits of ...

springs are springs? a car is a car; tyres are tyres and a holes a hole? maybe the OE are overpriced and cheap ones can be bought on ebay for peanuts but I know what I would not fit. Have just had new shocks and springs all round on my touring and have got apex springs with billistiens. Nowt wrong ...

sounds like you have no clue about engines :roll: nother m20 head for the bin, please buy any french turd and sell a nice looking cab to someone who knows to look into a poorly sounding engine and not run it to show the world just how dumb you are via a video. You only have yourself to blame. I'm ba...

does it groan all the time or when on full lock.
If itss full lock thats normal, well has been on the PAS systems I've used.
Loads of grief to search for part nums on my pda but doubt you'll need more than new seals and bearings.

is this any help http://www.pskits.com/catalog/pumpbmw-c-61_65.html

bud I'm more than happy to come over and have a good look. Forget any renumeration, a cuppa would be great though. I'll pick up a couple of cakes from the bakers to sweetern the prognosis. Just let me know when is good for you

Well fella you ain't gonna need viagra.

Bud I wasn't having a pop, I'm a grumpy sod and have become attached to these frustrating money pits :thumb: Is yours a two of four door? I'll keep my eyes peeled for any coming up. As per my name I'm a touring junkie so chrome isn't something I covert but more than happy to add a chrome tag to my e...

only a two door after the rear wings were replaced.

I have a strange feeling we may be eating our words after this.
Can we stipulate the custard test

Is this the latest trend in filler caps, is painting the flap a different colour/ smartie sticker effect sooo last year.
maybe all you scoffers should have first asked this.
Maybe there is a hole cut in the rear seat and top of the tank to allow fuel to be added. Would explain a lot.

far too much chemical abuse or daydreaming going on.
EVERYTHING about motorised transport is dangerous, and should be treated as such.
Burt stick to public transport and make the roads a safer place.

only one small mention for rockford? The last system me and a theatre sound engineer built was a 3K rig in a converted coach. bought all the speakers loose (emenance?) from mapplin then using all the specs from the paperwork my mate built then tuned the boxes with different size and length ports. th...

I went to my fav road the other day and reset the trip computer, i averaged 18mpg :D I have a 318 8v touring and daren't work it out but I bet it's not much more than your 18. thinking of keeping the car as its all original and in good nic. Sorry for the hijack but had thoughts of 318is conversion.

think I've got a bit of work for ya.
Only down near Brands and used to work many years ago working at a paintball site/s down the lane. Will give you a bell if I wake at a decent time.
