Forrest 35 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 ^ Leaking coolant = loose hose = easy fix Electric window = no idea Driveshaft = see my other thread in maintence, Speedo = some idiot (i.e me) didn't put the plug on properly on the diff Washer fluid light = ultimate noob fail, forgot to fill the reservior up lol So just the electric window is beyond me, everything else is just me being in a rush to refit everything. It's just a tempremental e30 Dan, I am sure you know what those are like Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martyyn 2 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 So just the electric window is beyond meJust had this myself, in the end it was simply the connections in the switch that were completely covered in crap. A quick clean and brush and they were good as gold again.I assume youve tried this already though ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forrest 35 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 ^ One side works, swapped the switches and didn't make a difference. I will clean everything and see what I can do. Cheers, Martyn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tire 10 Report post Posted August 25, 2009 Most likely corroded connections in the plug where the door loom goes to the car body. Rubber seal failed or whatever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forrest 35 Report post Posted August 25, 2009 Lunchtime teasers. There are no words, apart from I am bloody stoked! Brief two min run around the block. Points to note. - Car sounds tits. - LSD locks up far far far better with a urethane diff mount + new redline fluid. - Brake pads slightly rub on wheels, will go for a drive after giving it a clean and rub the edges off the new pads. - Now time to commence suspension set up testing. - Wheel alignment tomorrow. Enjoy friends. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FYI Simon etc, I took the eyelids off and it looks heaps better, was worth a try though. Pictures to come Except one of my mirrors fell out of the holder and broke so hopefully sort one before friday. Just drove 60km and I am in love again, fantastic noise, handles amazing, looks amazing, now to keep this one square Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e30plz 1 Report post Posted August 26, 2009 Should give the eyelids a spray with some black just to see, I reckon they'd look better. Spray the volvo lip too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
