A couple things. There may be a rubber type strip in the bottom channel that is missing, old dried and cracked, or the glass needs to be seated down fully into the bottom channel.

Motor and glass fitted

Only thing is that when window is lower it fall forward a little.

Thanks for quick replys

I believe the gearbox mounting point is a bracket (need to find one in the garage)

rubber mounts for the rest.

Hi

Can anyone put up a picture for the exhaust mounting points on 325i
At the moment exhaust is only secured at back box there must be more

Sorry my fault as above straight 6 coding plug

Need a coding plug from a v6 e30 facelift anyone

I've tried 3 different V6 plugs but no rev counter only thing I can think is they are per face.
To my knowledge I thought only difference was 4 cylinder and 6 cylinders??
Not pre face and facelift???

I'll put up a wanted ad for a facelift coding chips

Thanks
