looking good buddy! love your car !

Not a very common thing Dave. check your driveline components such as centre hanger bearing etc and make sure everything is as it should be. Something would be putting the angle of the diff off putting strain on the bolt for it to snap like that. Or it could be a simple case of the bolt just not being strong enough?

p.s yes the sensor from number 6 spark plug lead that has a plug on it will not be applicable to your pre-facelift car. Only the facelifts use this as part of motronic 1.3 engine loom

hey bud. Check your your hoses for vacuum leaks, check also the resistance of the crank and reference sensors on the bellhousing, these can give a stumbling idle. Also check the resistance on your ignition coil. I have had a few of these play up. Other things to check would be your idle control valve, take it out, clean it, make sure it's operating correctly with the correct resistance etc and check the intake house from your throttle body for cracks. Also the little pipes that come out the side of the throttle body need to be tightly fitted as they tend to have the knurled surfaces wear where they fit into the throttle body causing leaks. The sensor on the harmonic balancer is for the diagnostic port at the top of the engine and doesn't really do anything as far as connecting to the ECU. The plugs just go straight to the diagnostic port. Other things to check is pull out the oil cap while running and see how much crank case pressure you have, worn rings etc can make it idle funny if you're low on compression or there is blow by. Happy to check it out for you if you want to swing by my shop sometime in Glenfield. Love me a tech 1! I have one myself. Cheers 02102916373 SJ

Never knew the guy but I recall his posts here and there. It is always heartbreaking when someone from our community passes. My deepest condolences go out to his friends and family. RIP Sanjay, fellow BMW enthusiast and valued Bimmersport member.

are those ACS wheels for sale? Love the thread bud! Wicked stuff

It makes my soul happy to see someone else driving their e30 on the roads I love to drive! Beach hop with mine this coming weekend

Haven't updated this in a while. So a while back the car got stuck in 1st gear which prompted me to have to take it off the road until I healed up. I got it towed to the shop and ended up swapping the gearbox with a UK 325is one, clutch, slave, diff and other bits and bobs. Also took part in the Brit and Euro Classic 2025 and shot a wee music video at my workshop with some DJs that I know. Pics will explain all better.

gorgeous!

Looks sooo much better bruv

Welcome bud! Lovely workmanship! Look forward to seeing your builds

Thanks bro!
