    Vanos trouble?

    Vanos units can be serviced - have done so with an M50 If you grab a screw driver and placed your ear onto it and if you hear a grinding sort a noise - its buggered. The repair kit is quite cheap but the labour hours could add up..
  7. are touring suspension different from other e30s or are they specific? IE would a 325i coupe/sedan fit a 6 cyclinder touring? cheers
  8. e36 bentley will only cover the engine e30 will cover everything else
  9. anybody on here use them that care to comment? my office is just around the corner, if not it'll be going out south east for work to be done. cheers

    E30 Touring

    Hi all, If you're one of the 50+ that was watching the black e30 320i Touring on TM - well i bought it yesterday. I amazed after 20 years the paint is almost flawless, albeit a few scratches. The interior is in pretty good nick as well. the couple who owned it were an older couple and she's driven it for the last 8 years. All those time and they haven't kept a single receipt of what they had done to the car! - hence i was quite sceptical mechanically with the car. But its something i just had to have it! Things that are wrong - - Rear passenger Windows doesnt work - Gear changes feel sloppy - coolant drips - new radiator? - a rattle from the rear somewhere - suspension probably needs some work - tyres are on its last legs Things that will be done in due course - - timing belt - they haven't changed it in the last 8 years of ownership!! Pretty scarry - all fluids - all belts and hoses - spark plugs - Definaltely some poly/m3 control arm bushing - Z3 shifter - suspension, definately some billys! Wish List - new wheels: 14 inch wheels dont cut it - recaro front seats - Mtech 1/2 steering wheel - a kit - An M42 engine when the M20 craps out - a nice matching exhaust system Not new to e30s - i've had an e30 318iS in OZ and that thing was brilliant. I am pleased to have kept the Bentley Manual as it'll be more useful with this touring than it did with the iS i had as it didn't cover the M42. If you guys have tips or know cost of doing some of this work, it'll be appreciated. Can we start with the timing belt replacement and the short shifter? it'll be great compare prices to make sure we don't get rip. cheers

    my new project

    seen it quite often at Chesters at Ellerslie last year...i'm sure she'll scrub up real nice when you're done
  14. looks great - stay with that height mate - any lower and you'll end up like another ricer on you here..
  15. if you're running all the speakers off the 4 channel amp, what's powering the sub? a mono block amp?
  16. nice install mate - hope you're keeping the car and not flogging it off
  17. just curious to know if dropping it into a 323i, would there be torque loss down low at all? cheers

    M3 Wheels

    M3 rears arent supppose to fit properly. you need 2X the front's for it to work
  19. aa is a waste of time take it to a reputable bmw workshop or dealers. they're more thorough and know what to look for.
