Bump. $1000.

I'm after an E34 Motorsport bumper grill. Drivers side. Diamond Schwarz preferred but not essential.

I'm in St Johns, Auckland. Fronts 17x7.5 ET41 Rear 17x9 ET8

Do you still have the AC Type I's? Are you able to upload some better photos?
-
I bought these for my E36 but have since sold it. They were super hard to come by and look great on E36's. 3 x 17x9 2 x 17x7.5 I had found another 17x9 overseas and was going to run 4 of them. After $1200. PM or 021 811 423. Would consider trade for 18" AC Schnitzer Type I or II's. These are the actual wheels: And this is how they can look:

I don't think either of these are suppose to look like this! Replaced them both with genuine ones, bled the system and took it for a very spirited 20 min drive. Bottom rad hose got hot, heater pumped hot air too. Temp never went above half. Hopefully she's fixed! Real test will be sitting in traffic tomorrow for 40 minutes. Now I just hope no damage was done do the head when it got hot.

Have done that, doesn't budge. BMW have a tool to hold the water pump bolts.
-
No idea if the heater used to work as I have only had the car in summer. Any tips to hold the fan in place while you undo it?

Update: I spent some time on the car tonight. Car idled for about 20-25 minutes, got up to operating temp and stayed there. Rad cap was off the whole time. - No water being pushed out, bar the odd bubble (water slowly lapped over the edge every now and then but this is to be expected as water pump circulates right?) - No change in water height when revving - No water coming out of exhaust, held a piece of paper over it while revving - Temp didn't rise past half (normal operating) The bottom rad hose never get hot, and the water level never dropped when it got to operating temp. So this tells me thermostat is toast? It was running for almost half an hour, more than enough time for thermo to open. Also - heater won't blow warm air. Set to 32deg and AC on full it blows cold air. This is strange. Even if thermo was f**ked it should still blow hot air right? Maybe blockage in the heater core? Could this cause the over heating by not letting the water circulate properly? Pulling thermo and water pump off tomorrow to inspect. If those are fine then might look at heater core/pressure test cooling system. But I'm leaning away from any leaks now as the water level never dropped and that bottom rad hose should't have stayed cold. Thoughts?

While driving on the motorway last weekend I could smell hot/buring coolant so I looked at temp gauge and it was pretty high. Pulled over, turned the car off and let it cool a bit. Opened rad cap, topped it up then tried starting it again. It quickly got up past normal operating temp so I turned it off and called a tow truck. Water is crystal clear and bright green, oil is clean too. No gunge under the oil filler cap either. I know water pumps go on these motors pretty often on, anything else? I would love to think it is a coolant leak or something like blown water pump but I am leaning towards HG because the back of the car was covered in little droplets of greasy clear water. They never really dried either. Could be a coincidence and maybe some truck sprayed the car or something but seeing that tells me water must be getting into the exhaust system. What should I be looking for diagnose the problem? Going to pull plugs and check for water/condensation and check thermostat & water pump. Leak down test? TK test? Pressure test the cooling system? Really keen to get this sorted as the car is super tidy and only done 103kms. Thanks!
