Hi did anyone ever find out if this set up fitted under 15’s?

Great information thanks mate. I have been doing a similar thing over the last couple of days but building this corner up in layers using a hybrid silicone. The rain keeps stopping me and I have to run out and close it all up before the stuff has dried. It is slowly, slowing it down. I’ve also been ...

Hello,
No haha.
I’ve got Bentley manual.
I’ve spent ages messing around with the adjustments.
I be got it best I can get it, but still let’s water in.
I’ve resorted to building the corner up in layers of silicone.

I’ve sent you a pm

Hi, is the crank and rods still available ?

Hi guys I’ve had a major leak here that I can’t fix. I’ve got new front hood seal and spent ages today adjusting the front and back windows and I still can’t get a water tight seal. It’s as if the window need to come up higher in the front corners but I can’t get it with out it then fouling the rest...

I opted for brand new ones, with the updated pintels. I’m glad I did! Has made a fair difference to car on the whole. I shopped around and ended up getting 5 brand new ones for the cost of refurbing the 6 old ones. I’ve recently had trouble with AUTODOC and I feel your pain when dealing with other p...

Afternoon guys. Ive tried searching but can’t quite get to the bottom of it. I’ve been following Bentley manual for fuel pressure tests. Trying to figure out an off idle hesitation. Got it rigged up, jumped the relay and got 3 bar reading. Passed first test. Then with engine idling Bentley says 2.8 ...

I’ve reset throttle plate, cable and lockdown cable. Got new injectors, and done valve cover gasket and the rocker arm rubbers. Annoyingly still leaks very slightly near the injectors. Not sure what else I can do about that. Drives a lot better but still got the off idle hesitation. Will test fuel p...

Hi, thanks for the reply. The rubber snorkel is off at the moment so I will reattach when I next test. The valve cover was leaking massively yesterday, Worse than when I originally did it, so ordering that. While the cover is off I’m going to send the injectors for service. I shall test the tps next...

I inspected the c191 plug and all seems fine. I’m getting good readings at the ecu from the blue sensor. The brown coolant switch also seems to be operating as it should. Other things I have noticed are charging voltage is 13.8 Also when running, unplugging the icv makes little to no difference in i...

The vacuum line is relatively new and in good condition.
I shall buy a fuel pressure tester

Hi thanks for your reply.
I shall look for the round plug tomorrow and test.

I have a spare valve cover gasket, so will get it on also at the weekend probably.

What is the fuel enrichment? Is it same as fuel pressure regulator?

Hi guys, Wondering what my next step is to maybe save spending money unnecessarily. So the car was a 320 but now a 325. Last summer was running fine, then started having to crank a bit longer on hot days after a 15 min drive. It’s now got a off idle stumble, blip the throttle and it want to die. Occ...

Hi,
As above,
I spoke to someone on the phone and have ended up with the incorrect part.
I’ve added a photo of the hole that’s missing it’s cover.

Thanks

As above, looking for a single grommet/cover if anyones got one please let us know

Hi, yeh the drain holes are flowing freely. You can see in the picture the clear ‘button’ I don’t get what that for? But pretty sure it lets water through and into my boot. I’ve copied this from another forum but can’t find anything else on this. “Two specifically are hidden under the convertible ro...

Been trying to find the source of water Ingres in the convertible. The drains in the hood are free flowing. But it look like water is getting in to the boot from there and making under rear seats wet. Soaking wet. There are various bolts and a few plastic buttons for lack of better word where I thin...

Yeh I’ve ended up ordering one.
A local laser cutting said £50 if I could provide a CAD drawing of what I need. I would have been interested to do that if I had the skills to do so and a piece in good enough condition to copy

Does any know if the disc inside the motor is available anywhere?

Mines rusted to nothing.

Might call a laser cutting place tomorrow and see if they could make one up

The lower one you get through the grommet hole from the missing lower pipe. On my one at least , the grommet had to come out for the top one. No spanner could get on the top one due lack of space and also the plastic moulding on the pipe. Nightmare, just need to get back to it to bleed and up to tem...

Okay, yeh remove the two heater hoses, remove the rubber grommet in the fire wall. Pull it out towards the engine bay. Then with some fiddling you can get it on.
My rubber was super hard to get out. Like it had swollen. Won’t quite go back in now, but hopefully no more leak.

I’m not with the car now,

Do you leave that pipe bolted together and take the cover of the heater core off as one?

The heater valve is already out.

How the hell do you undo this nut?
Driving me mad
Please help, before I do something stupid

Thanks for the reply’s people. The other week I had tried adjusting both windows. I can get the drivers window to where I think it should be. It then fouls the rear window. I then followed the guide on here to adjust the rear window, but it’s ran out of adjustment. The motor had tried to seize at th...

Hi all I have a multiple leaks that I try to fix but I don’t seem to get anywhere with them. The worst culprit is the drivers window adjustment. I can’t drop the back of the window and lift the front up enough to close the gap and keep parallel with the roof rubber, without fouling the rear window. ...

Turbo engines not always under pressure but in vacuum also when no load. So it’s same as n/a engine and use one way valve

Hi, Sorry for the poor pictures . The hole is perfect hole, looks factory, no rust around it. The second picture is the other side of the hole, where (some) of the water is coming out and into engine bay. The sound deadening is almost perishing where the water is hitting it from the other side. I sh...

Morning guys. Been chasing some leaks on the cabriolet. I’ve ordered new elephant trunk and cleaned the sill drain holes. When looking under the drivers wiper, in the vent I cleared out the corner where the water should drain down. But I notice these holes. 6FB32708-887D-40D8-9391-D1E2CB5FFC66.jpeg ...

Hi,
Yes removed old lock and rebuilt and replaced.
So you have no where to unlock the door with the key? Is all done by remote locking?

Yes, sorry I didn’t explain that well.
Okay, that’s good to know, thank you

Search continues

I’ve just had the central locking unit tested and no problems can be found.
Can some one point me in the direction of some information on the unit that sits above the ecu.
I believe this is to do with the alarm? I’m not sure what it’s referred to and am wondering if this could be causing some issue?

Just followed some test instructions on unofficialbmw that point to the control unit being the problem.

Try Changing the matrix.
I would also get new cap and temp sensor as they are not much

I’ve had various coolant problems recently.
I also used some sealing stuff (unwisely) and took me along Time before I was getting heat out the blower. 4 or 5 flushes.

Evening all, So having various problems with c/l I’ve cleaned pins at drivers door. I’ve rebuilt drivers lock I’ve done red/black wire mod. The c/l unit appears to be okay, slight white dust on pins which I have cleaned. Cleaned drivers door micro switch plug in the door When working, the central lo...
