Hi
The gromet on the passenger side bulkhead of my 325 is leaking water badly in to the foot well the wiring loom from the ecu goes through it,it is damaged and needs replacing is it easier to replace the whole loom or the gromet either way looks a nightmare
thanks

One hates to be the bearer of bad news......but.....
The grommet rarely fails,it's the metal work that it mounts on that has vanished.

Engine ECU lives at the other side,grommet by the pedal box for that one.

I checked the gromet and it is torn,there is a previous repair done to it but no rust,what is the mass of wiring going through it

The main body loom for the car.... To remove the loom and replace it without snipping it is an epic epic task! I would try and repair it personally. Got any pics of it?
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.
