Sammy J 1 Report post Posted March 23, 2010 hmmm some very close guesses. So does anyone have any tips or advice in my 5 stud conversion? Also the viscous fan goes all the time like right from a cold start up and makes it sound bit like a truck. guessing this means the viscous unit has failed? Also the indicators don't return on the steering wheel half the time, is there any way to fix this? from memory its a little white stalk or something?

CamB 48 Report post Posted March 23, 2010 Take the steering wheel off and have a look - should be some sort of little arm. Supposedly the major tip for 5 stud is to make sure you pay up for a set of the later E36 M3 lower arms so the castor is right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sammy J 1 Report post Posted March 23, 2010 Haha im not going to say just yet, all will be revealed in good time. Have myself a LOT of saving to do put it that way. Would anyone like to swap some rough recaro front seats for some really mint ones with cash my way? no rips or anything in the seats. Also looking for some mint leather door cards if anyone has any? Im doing the interior in suede and leather so would be a shame to do it to mint cloth ones but doesnt really bother me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
