Napier_E36 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2004 that would be the baffles in your muffler - my little diesel wagon does that after a run down the tikokino str8 at 160 (out of an 1800 single cam non turbo diesel thats not bad). The first time it happened i damn near shat myself - i thought id blown it up, then i sorta gave up on worrying, after all its my hack!!! Out of interest bro, what road were you on when that happened? I lost my fanbelt idler (not) at 240k on willowbank ave - that was freaky! but repairable - so dont give up on hight speed kaning!!!

(not as an e30, but as a big heavy brick!) But i still love em! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted April 22, 2004 hmm 4th at 7000 rpm - dude your car redlines before that. And that would means your going nearly 200 kph Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And that would means your going nearly 200 kph maybe this is why your car is running with a few problems bro - i am pretty sure taking it past redline is not good for a car...
