I have fitted my m52 but now need to sort out the air filter and intake elbow. I want to use a standard style filter ideally, so what filters can be used? I have an m52 maf? Which elbow do I need? I have an elbow on there at the moment that fits the throttle body but not the maf? Thanks in advance h...

Hey all

I've just finished bolting up my m52
I've gone to turn the key for the first start and the starter is just clicking, not spinning or engaging
Any ideas on what Might be the cause?

Morning all I've just finished putting the brake system together on my e30 I've used a clio servo with a spacer I've now bled the brakes and the car car be pushed but it's a bit of effort could this be because it's spent a year standing? Or is the spacer to long? Also the brake pedal doesn't return ...

Now the pipe is just hanging there
What do I do with it?
Thanks in advance

thanks

You two are legends all done now front wheels on the deck for the first time in 14 months!
Also next door may have learnt a few swear words! I think I taught myself done new ones when my brother did the other side to what I did first time! Fuming!

Bought 19mm ones Cannot fit these for love nor money New shackles and old shackles both do the same thing The front peice of the shackle keeps popping out the slot not going far enough in to allow it to come up to the bolt hole Closest I've got the bolt hole to line up is 2 cm gap Any one able to he...

I'm putting my coupe back together ATM and I've lost all the bolts that's hold the front valence and bumper on
Mean anyone tell me what they are? M8 ect ect
BMW sent me 6 m10 bolts so given up with them

Any advice on fitting these? Received them today and they are one peice, no slit to put them on the bar? Don't want to do it wrong!

I'll try it tomorrow as I'm home now
Thanks for your help I'm very grateful

I'll try it tomorrow as I'm home now

i have just measured my front anti roll bar its 18.5mm
where is the best place to get these in polybush?
also best way to re fit them?

when testing my one on the bench the gear comes out but wont spin?

Sorry and the difference between facelift and pre facelift

99% sure the starter is dead

I have a spare does anyone know how to test it on the bench so I know if it's good or not?

It won't spin over doing the diagnostic plug way

It won't start yes - won't crank

Have power at the ignition barrel
At the connection in the glove box
At the c101 both side
The green and black wire has 12v switched live

Oh and car won't start with diagnostic plug start up

Can anyone tell me what each wire on the starter does/is for
Large ones I assume are battery and alternator
What are the other two?

I'm just trying to see what my e30 touring is worth as you guys see it Befor I owned it, it was owned by a BMW master tech and all replacement parts were genuine - even the battery. He also did the conversion from 1.8 to 2.5 The car really does drive well and handle good, it's a head turner and I lo...

I went to the breakers quickly today an went in the hunt for a aircon electric fan - failed there was two different fans on two differnet cars so I jut wondered if anyone has a picture of the one I need?
Thanks

Thanks I'll have a look over the weekend
Then I've just got a rough cold idle to fix

Its a manual but i believe it might of been an auto before

Thanks for your input! Found the cause the small wire from the battery has a break in it repaired and the icv makes a noise ect and fired up! Next is to work out what the fault is when it won't do anything!

Yeh it stays lite just like you say flickers a bit

Evening all So I haven't used my touring in 3 weeks and the battery went flat so I took it off and charged it - put it back on today and it turns over but won't start. Pulled out the plugs no spark, nor at the h&r leads or the king lead. I haven't checked injector pulse but the plugs were dry and I'...
