steering colum joint . engine / rack conversion
has anyone tried using a 1 series joint ?
don't know if they would be any good but just seen a pic of one on ebay when I was looking for something else .
ebay number 161000580300
looks hopeful

Re: any s50b32 experts?
probably benifit from a full seal kit at 200k , i know mine needed it at 150k .
not a bad job to do if your going to take off the vanos anyway .
if a tool like me can manage you should be fine

Re: e36 evo touring ?
thanks to you all for the info .
i'm not worried about the brakes ect as I have it all on the m3
one thing I did think of was getting the oil temp gauge to work as I think it was only m3 that had it .

Re: e36 abs fault code 113 ?
just had a look on google and found that 113 could be something to do with n/s/f sensor / wiring too or from it . also seen about wiring faults inside the pump unit and soldering new wires . does this mean anything to anyone or should i not be using google for diagnostics

Re: glovebox mountings
cant see any rust where the stud has snapped off . i was down to me being too heavy handed when refitting the glovebox
. i can see the metal is double skin that's why i asked about using a rivnut . Brian can the bead of sealant be got at to be resealed if needed ?
