  1. My 86 320 i Is overheating a lil bit and I think it may be Air in the CoolingSystem ,Dont think its the Gasket as there are no tell tale signs in the Olil or Nasty Smells in the Expansion Tank,What is the best way to Bleed these Cooling Systems and another thing is the 86 320i Chain or Belt Driven Timing Chain Setup?? Ta
  2. So do you have to completely Cover the AFM with a Plastic bag or what is the best way to protect it??.. Will Groomers let you run the Motor while they clean it?? TX..
  3. Is it safe to Steam Clean my E30 320i?Engine?? I have heard that the Electrics don't like it?If it is Safe is there anyone in the Hutt that could be recommended?? TX..
  4. Good Point!! I must look closely,,,what is the best way to clean the Engine??I heard that Bimmers dont like Steam?? TX..
  5. Are these the two pin or four pin type....the ones on Trade me seem to exclude the 83 -86 E30,s
  6. Hi does anyone know where I could get the Front Bonnet BMW Emblem and the Rear one For an 86 E30 320i?? TX
  7. Hi hope someone may be able to help,our E30 320i has a small annoying Oil leak on the drivers side front Head Gasket,without replacing the whole gasket is there anything else we could do ????to solve the prob??Its not much but just enough to be a bit unsightly TX in advance..
  8. Hi Gang we have finally fixed this problem and it was the Central Locking Computer behind the Kick Panel that had to be replaced and thanks to a Guy called Ian ,who lives in Park Ave, Loer Hutt, we have finally purchased a unit and got it going..P.S,,(I added the Ian bit because he may just read this column..)
  9. Hi Gang, Can someone tell me a place that may have an ABS Control Unit for a Z3 1900 Roadster(1998) at a reasonable price of course.lol lol TX ..
  10. I did see two Valves both going to the Injecor rails but at the font of theengine almost above the Thermostat housing??Would this show quite clearly in Haynes or Bentlys?? TX
  11. But where o where is the Cold Start Valve.... Can someone perhaps post a diagram??? TX
  12. Now for problem number two with the 86 320i,The Idle is shocking and sometimes even stalls at the lights and the car is very hard to start in the mornings..could it be the cold start valve and what is causing the car to idle so badly.. Are cold start valve very expensive to fix??? Heres hoping that its just bad plugs and maybe a hose that has vacuum leaks Thanks in advance I look forward to your learned replies TX
  13. Thanks again Will and Hotwire..Your help is absolutely awsome...I am sure we will get this fixed in no time as it appears to be the CLU or the Actuators that seem to go wrong with this setup(Jese I hope its not just a faulty earth)..hahahhaha Tell me what is the best Plug to use in the E30 320i a Boch or the NGK Equivulent???I find that with my 535i it make quite a bit of difference to the Idle if you use the German Plug..
  14. Man this is awsome.....and i thank you so so much for your help...is the plug that plugs into the Central Locking Unit the one that they say can get corroded pins ???? I notice that there is a rubber Boot covering a group of wires that go from the back of the Front Guard to the door?,I get the impression that there may be a Plug and Socket some where in there or in the door too that they refer to as a problem...how do i get to see that as i cant seem to roll the rubber surrounding the wiring loom back?? TX a Million..
  15. We have taken out the Kick Board and have spotted the Black Plastic Box that must have the Central Lock Module in ,,But how on earth do you Prise it up???It does not seem to want to come up??are the two Screws below perhaps Anchoring it??? TX,,
