when you're on board computer (OBC) "Gongs" this is the speaker which makes the noise.
it should gong when it is below 3*C or when you break the predtermined speed limiter.

Its a check control gong, silly !!!
The first time it went off in my car i nearly crashed, and you do think WTF...
If the outside temp drops below 3c it goes " BONG ", and again when it goes over 3c, thats the only time i ever hear mine.

You M3 guys got the 6 buttons or the 13 buttons??
It shouldn't bong when it goes over 3 degrees, but it should if it goes above 6 then drops back down to 3 again.
If you guys have the 6 button OBC's then set the memo function on and it should beep 15 secs before every hour to remind you about the news!!

Back in the E30's yuppie days hey!
There's a few OBC's on e-bay.de.
Also I know Ian Godney has an E30 M3 sat in his yard awaiting fate with a full OBC sat in it. It's not in the german language though.

You can fit an OBC into your car, this is what I did on mine.
Need to get hold of a full kit, and you can do it yourself, if you want one.

lol-fitting stuff?gotta get the original stuff working first:)
how do you stop the headlamp washers kicking in at every spray of the windscreen?
BTW-jist stripped the entire boot interior down to metal-no holes and nice shiny white paint everywhere
however, boot is wet on right hand side-possibly coming in from a vent in the RH wing (black plastic about 7 inches long-what is it?)
how difficult is it to strip and clean the rear wash wipe?
sorry for being
