Surely the only time to take into consideration the location of a car for sale is if it's very close to the sea?

Re: :x Lollipop bush fitting advice
If you don't have a press, might jacking a wheel up and lowering it or the disc down onto it work? I just took mine to the local garage, £5 and they removed the old ones and popped the new ones in for me. No hassle! Where I had issues was getting the lollipop bushes back onto my new wishbones.

Going from an S3 to a 320i is interesting.. How're you finding it so far?

Removing injector rail wiring harness?
Hi all, Simple question.. I'm trying to remove the injector harness on a '91 325i but where the large circle connector plugs into the wiring loom on the passenger side of the engine, I can't seperate the plug from the metal bracket. What's the correct way to remove it? I don't want to try one method...

Re: The infamous standard 325i
I definitely prefer the more "classic car" looking e30s, to the mean looking tech-2s. I just wish my interior didn't look poverty spec, despite being a 325i.

I've not really looked at the locking strip yet.. Does anyone have any diagrams or pictures that would be useful in how it locks/unlocks?

Re: Driving an E30 in snow, share your tech tips.
How does the advice here differ for those of us not blessed with an LSD? Last year I parked the e30 up and didn't use it at all through the snow. I live at the highest point of Sheffield, so getting anywhere involves going up or down bloody steep hills!

The e30 isn't exactly fast, but the driving experience is just so good. After a weekend of driving a 1.0 Micra (admittedly a pretty decent little car!) my 325i felt amazing!

Just a quick question as I need to buy a flare spanner tomorrow..
What size in mm is the bleed nipple on the clutch slave cylinder?
Googled and searched but couldn't find an answer (and don't have time to get under the car!)
Thanks
