  1. M3 had the same problem, pretty common on all e36s and e39s I'm guessing. Like Ray said, a pretty simple task. I was replacing the fluid when I did mine but just get a big sirenge and suck up the fluid in the resivour, unbolt it to make life easier to remove clamps, and hoses, suck abit of fluid from them so you don't spill it everywhere, give hose inners a wipe with brake clean and the bits on the bottom of the resivour. I used a wee smear or atv silicone to give it a good seal then put hoses back on with new clamps, cleaned all the leaked fluid off everything then bolt back in and top up fluid. Job done!
  2. Cheers Andrew. I've been busy the last few days. Decided the headlights needed a good clean so stripped them down completely, cleaned them all up then re siliconed the lenses back in and reassembled this arvo. Fitted hids with shields and got the new indicator to fit right. Also tried to fix the illuminated gearknob but was unsuccessful so brought a new led, resistor and a hot glue gun to remake it. Was sick of not being Able to see at night when reversing so cleaned the red tint off the reverse lights. Also fitted some sweet puddle lights in the door cards and in the process found the last person to pull them off superglued 3 of the drivers door clips in so was a sh*t to get off and pulled the top and end plastic backers off both sides so had to reglue them on. Door cards sit way better now and don't squeak when opening/closing the doors now which is a bonus! Hoping to get gearknob done tomorrow so will get afew pics up. Think that's it....

  6. Dude, that sucks Sooooo much! Seems like the previous owner got sick of the project, 'just slapped it together to get it going then make it someones elses problem. If you need a hand gives a shout, I've got full wiring diagrams for e36s so least that should help with the engine side of things and I'm sure Mike (antil33t) will have many e30 diagrams for ya to figure out the rest.
  7. That's bullshit! Talk about double standards. How long they make you wait? I would of driven my car as far as you could go then hold the horn on untill they moved haha!
