Is anyone who knows there sh*t about e30s close to or in the Coventry or Warwickshire area??

If so would you mind looking at my 316i. I know its only a 16 but shes done me proud and i want to treat her right, plus i know the engine isn't as good as I could have kept it, the red service light is on I know it needs servicing but I'm scared the dealer or garage will try rip me off cus of other bits gone wrong with her.

Any advise you guys got would be truly helpful, I'm a noob yes but I'm willing to learn.

Shower me with your wisdom o e30 gurus

Cheers,

well the steering is very lose, i believe i may have a buckled wheel (no alloys) or a bent wish one? not sure which side though i know i loose grip on corners at medium to high speeds. Also its very loud from the center, like its blowing, I think maybe something on the exhaust thogh had a new back box in may.

Needs a service red light is on

thats about it.
