Hi!

As you probably have seen, I've been working on a basic servicing guide for e30 engines.....

I was wondering if anyone would be good enough to provide me with engine bay pictures so that I can annotate them (so folk can find where stuff is )

Full credit will be given for the pics.

I currently have one of an m20, but its from an e34

really would like pics of the m10, m40, m42 please

thanks

Here you go mate, M42



Andrew

thats of my 1987 e30 320i if it of any use to u... not very clean im afraid!





hannah

thanks andrew

just a quick question or two....

take it thats the coil packs just 'above' the washer tank?!

does the m42 have a bleed nipple or not?!

where is the expansion tank?!

thanks (must brush up on 4pots )

cheers dobbie-means I can do a pre/post facelift job

does this look right andrew?!

arrow without the tag is pointing at ICV?!?!?!

That is one clean engine bay.

lol i'm ashamed to have shown my engine bay now!

5 minutes and you'll have mine

You *could* get pics of a clean M40, but then who'd recognise it?

We could start a Bosch battery zone.

320i e30, just in case

Nice one, was starting to think all E30s were red

Do you need any pics of the engine dismanteled?
You can use the ones I put in this thread for rebuilding mine.

hero damage novelty has worn off...... its not cool like Mr '3/4 of my cars are shagged.....' says LOL

I'm not one to talk, and besides, only one was hero damage really.....

Ace Cafe did my 2.5 engine no favours!

Yes dude thats all correct! except that the ICV is under the strut bar like the on the M40 so its near the bulk head sitting on the inlet manifold.


Andrew

M20 if your still in need of one.......

some more e30 bays

u were merely testing it........it should be able to stay on the limiter for a good 10mins...LOL

Definately! OF course it should!

I've said it before, but I'll say it again. It's hard to not bounce it off the limiter the first time you are doing donuts.........from outside the car!

Need an S14?

Edited to say: DOH!!! The pic didn't upload immediately, I see you already have one and it's much better painted than mine!

I'm feeling a major case of engine bay jealousy.

My picture was of the breaker though, the driver is better it's got manifolds and everything but no where near as clean some on here.

Those bosch batteries really do get about

here you go mate, some clean m20 postfacelift pics for you.

Very clean, is that an automatic?

How come my M40 has the oil filler on the front?
Never see it there on other pictures.
A late production change or something? (It's a '94)

Billgates' sport is manual I'm pretty sure!

Has cruise control too!
