Re: Abs light

I have had the same issue and wasn’t sure there was sensors on the rear! Will check mines as it’s doing my head in as it didn’t do it when I got the car.

Like many E30’s there not shy of a jump start, what’s the implications of this as mentioned by Paul on the ABS? what should you check etc?

Cheers

Re: Hartge front grille badges

Yeah I was happy with the quality, it was a bit big but then if its taking from a original then it's correct for the car! I do have a small one on the car which is a bit more subtle as I don't want to put it in people's faces type thing.

Re: Autobox sticking in first

I had similar issues after I changed the engine and had to drain the box, they can be very sensitive to the level of fluid and to much or not enough does cause issues. I replaced mine and never had a issue.

Interesting enough I have the same issue with a auto cabbie, interesting to know what would be involved in a electric fan upgrade!

Re: Switchable auto

I have both version on 325's and the switchable is more responsive and fun when in S mode! The early non switchable is slower to kick down due to being a cable rather than electronic, I find both enjoyable but do prefer the switchable.

Re: e30 fibreglass mtech2

Sorry to hear that but maybe worth to salvage what u can and sell it and start saving for another! There is still plenty half decent examples out there for not a lot of cash that have the basis of a good sound car.

Have the chance of a so called genuine Hartge strut brace but the seller asked me how does he know if it is? He is advertising it as a Hartge item! so what is the way as a lot of them have lost the centre badge or the badge has been replaced. Any suggestions or has someone got one that they can advi...
