Managed to find one

Does anyone have a cluster for sale,for a 1988 325 Has to have the rev counter type ,not the large clock Either complete ,or will just buy the white backing pcb and the service light pcb Don't want the service pcb if it's had battery leakage onto the tracks as that's what's happened to ours Thanks

ta
ill ring them now and go get one

so i can change to the cheaper steel one that gsf do then and it fits straight on?

hi all ive changed the front bushes on my old 318 touring no probs got a set ready to go on the new 325 touring and took the arm off and its got alloy wishbones instead of steel with the bushes part of it can these be replaced ? ive pressed one out but i think its going to need a complete arm , Ã‚£1...

ok thanks for the info
i will go through all the electrics when i look at it
what about the suspension then<i guess its standard shocks and springs is it >

i dont know if he will let it go for Ã‚£100 i guess as its been sitting for 2 yrs he might though i was only going to get it if its a clean one anyway as i know its going to be hard to sell on ive been watching a few on ebay and the prices vary wildly i forgot its meant to be the long wheelbase one ...

well a mate of mine said we will go halfs on it if its any good and we can get it for less than 750
you think if i use enough petrol in it i can get a company fleet fuel discount!

well
hes after 750
but with no mot i was thinking Ã‚£500
15 mpg eh
yikes

ive been offered a 750 long wheelbase E reg is this a V8 or V12 dont know much about these but i think its the one with the similar front to a E30 probably wont keep it though although he did say its either 300 or 320 BHP! i bet its horrendous on petrol but stacked with gadgets and leather air con e...

might have a leaking rad not sure yet and was wondering what other models are the same type of radiator or are they all different
thanks
<matt

thanks that going to be easier to find then

now had anyone got someor breaking a rear disc braked car

are they the same and also which models have rear discs
i need all the bits for the rear handbrake and im hoping the saloon is the same as my touring
dont ask! someone decided to take all the shoes adjuster and linkages out for some reason!

thanks for the replies
i put the cheaper one on and it fitted perfectly
just got to get round to the oil change now

thanks
lucky i didnt buy them unseen then

just wondering if anyone knows the part number for the 15" caps
ive been offered the one i need but he said it came of a E32 and E34 and i wondered if it will fit mine
the number on it it 36.13-1179828
thanks
Matt

well spoke to the guy and they are def off a saloon
but he did say they are gas ones off a 325i so i might put them on and try them,i assume the oil filled ones were standard and aftermarket are gas ones?

so if they turn out to be off a saloon the ones off a 325 and 320 would be similar to the standard 318 tourer rating?
i know new ones arnt a lot though
i thought the springs gave the ride height too nothing to do with shocks?

has anyone ever fitted the saloon rear shocks to a tourer?
just ive been offered a set but i saw they are listed as differnet for the estate to the saloon
thanks

is the warning light independant from the guage as i recon mines reading a bit low as ive filled it up when i picked it up and only got Ãƒ”šÃ‚£29 in it weird thing is it only read slightly under full afterwards i guess now i know it could have gone lower when it was empty as it was just on the empty...

hi there just got it back tonight and all the works been done on it going to start using it for work this week and was wondering what sort of mileage i should get out of a tank,mostly round town driving? Seemed a small tank too unless the gauge is dodgy i think it takes about Ãƒ”šÃ‚£29 to fill it up...

ok thanks for your time and help

well i guess hes been doing cars everyday for about the last 30 yrs so i wont be telling him his job ! lol they are pretty cheap,the adj one is the most but the others are only another Ãƒ”šÃ‚£20 so i think ill get all 3 still not too sure about the belt if i should find a gen BMW one or if a afterma...

hi there well tbh im getting a mate whos a mot tester/mechanic to do it :) ( i chickened out) lol he just said get the bits for me, "get a belt and a pulley kit" so i dont know as there are 3 pulleys listed on the G and Swed website if i should get all 3 weird that Euro only list one i guess the oth...

prob just a head gasket
i think i read somewhere its just that and not a warped or cracked head
might not be as much as you think to fix,just depends on the condition of the car i guess

is eurocar parts cheap too?,and have you a link to the 2 places you mentioned
theres a euro and german and swedish branch near me and im going to need an exhaust in the next few months

u got me thinking now im home
im 90% sure the igition was on! lol
i will re check tomorrow
i recon the switch itself but only guessing
i will prob leave it until its a bit warmer anyhow

know it would be the limit switch but that article is great and will help loads
thanks for the link post

no ideas on the headlights i was hoping that was another common thing
cheers
Matt

anyone know how easy it is to get to the wiper motor,its got a fault where the blades dont go back to rest when you switch them off,im guessing theres a limit switch on the side of the motor Also the headlights work on dipped and main but you cant make them flash by pulling the stalk back to you any...
