Re: E30 1987 2.0L MANUAL

Thanks, the car is now in the garage. It is going to be a big job, will find out more about the problem when I talk to them today. Maybe, it would make sense getting another engine?

Do you think I could put a 325 engine in without any problems?

Hey, I have been having some major oil leaks with my car. Have discovered it is not the rocker cover as that has been replaced and tested. The car runs absolutely fine but constantly leaks oil.

Oil in Loom 1987, 2.0L

Hi all,

I have had a major oil leak, and I am getting the gasket cover seal replaced. There is oil in the loom, just wondering what that meant? Costing? etc...

Anyone had similar problem? If so, how did you resolve?

Thanks
Nicks

Rocker Cover Replacement

Hey, Some of the spark plugs have some traces of oil on them, I am thinking of replacing the rocker cover gasket - which I believe is a seal around the rocker cover. I have ordered one for £8. Apparently it will be £40 in labour costs, so I am thinking of having a go myself... I will be looking thro...
