    ping!

    So I threw out a b25 cam today right. Was pretty warn though. Have a few spare rockers and valves you are welcome to. Depends what you want to do/ spend, Head wise I'd get it checked, most likely valve seat damage. When we did ours spent about 700 on new parts like gaskets, waterpump, tstat, cambelt etc with another 700 for head crack and hardness tested, resurfaced, new valve seat and all valves faced and laped, then all assembled ourselves. Where as you can pick a whole motor up for less than that
  2. Have heard of you take The top cover off the code is printed either on the circuit board or somewhere under it Or try this https://www.radio-code.co.uk/bmw-radio-codes.html
  3. Can do a glovebox latch with key, $45 shipped
  4. I know a guy that did have a few minis lying around. Will give him a yell. What are you after exactly
  5. All right! Yea if Francois can't find his old one that'll be the go, cheers!
  6. Is this wee fella here that goes in the end to secure line
  7. Sure is. Did a leakage test and seems to be leaking from the inlet valves. Unsure if it's just crud built up in the valve seats or not
  8. Wanna sell me the wee retaining clip that holds the clutch line into the cylinder? Mine flew off never to be seen again
  9. Has 199xxx on it. Unsure if it's fuel pump, when at lower rpm it seems to struggle and has the odd miss, but up the higher revs seems to pull better, that's why I'm thinking its vanos or cat. Has about as much power as a 318/320
  10. Still trying to find why the touring is down on power. Scan had nothing, Compression test was all good, replaced pvc valve as there was a lot of sh*t in it and a lot of oil in the intake and blowing out the exhaust, stopped the smoking issue, but still no power improvement. Cleaned the throttle body, Ran some upper cylinder cleaner through it, cleared more sh*t out but still no power. Next step is vanos and check if the cat is blocked. Oh and when I was out test driving it the clutch line came out the master and put brake fluid everywhere. And when trying to take the retaining clip off it flew off under the carpet never to be seen again. Looks like it's cable ties to hold it in
  11. I was glad they canned the first one, least this way they had the full band since Christie Mcvie wasn't coming before, or to dunedin.I would of put car parts off to see them, said they'll be back but wait and see I guess
  12. Drove it home from Fleetwood Mac. Awesome concert! Lindsey Buckingham is the man!!!
  13. Am also havnt the same delemma at the moment on what to do with mine.
  14. Also have the same issue with my 328i touring. Am running a getrag 240 from a 318i with pivot arm, baring and Slave, m3 evo fly and clutch setup, and yea, had to take the clutch stop out so can push it hard to the floor to get it to disengage, but can still feel it's not completely.
  15. Looks good! Knew I should of brought it and put my manual conversion in. Ohwell
  16. Also buy a lot of stuff thru Paul, generally something every month. Great guy to deal with, lets you know what's happening with availability etc and gives options if needing bits straight away or can wait till the next weekly shipment comes in. And yes, order by lunch, sitting at my door an hour or so later. Has also made a personal delivery just to put a face to the name and see what I'm driving.
  17. Thrashed her round a paddock all day at an autocross, great fun Edit: photos just came up
  18. Could of had a v12 one if Yu asked a week earlier
  19. Sounds like you need to take it to a professional. Sounds pretty serious/dangerous
  20. Would be from the broken oil cooler and radiator so engine could be alright. Be a good doner for the one here with no motor
  21. Loooove roadkill! Awesome show! Watched abit of street outlaws on YouTube, and gas monkey garage, and graveyard carz which is all mopar restored to as factory as possable. Love the cars but usual bs arguments more than working in the cars, which is the best thing about all the motortrend channel which is roadkill, hotrod garage, dirt everyday, heaps of stuff on YouTube, it's all about the cars and having a laugh! Also, I'd kill for the muscle truck!!
  22. I need a few bits and pieces. Will be in touch
  23. Could try a guitar/ music store. My newish amp uses valves in them which are replaceable and many others so they may be able to help if you have an example, or a proper hifi shop
