E320iCoupe 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2010 lol just picked it up yesterday afternoon and took the rest of the afternoon giving it a deserved clean Needs a few little bits and pieces done, which we will get done at some point. Hopefully you lot can point me in the right direction. Need to fix the drivers seat, it dropped right back when I tried to adjust back a notch, had to drive it like that to next exit or GF following in her car probably would have stopped on M Way too so ya need new seat me thinks.

E320iCoupe 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2010 I forgot to add earlier, one of my immediate concerns is, I found where an oil leak is coming from; the Oil Pressure Sensor, when the engine is not running.... Being hopeful, I thought I might be able to just tighten it, but it appears to seep through where the plastic part and spade connector comes through. How do you take it out, I had no socket that size nor ring spanner... does repco sell the sensor if this requires replacement? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E320iCoupe 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2010 Someone had left the backs off the front seats, probably looking to see how they could fix the steel frame where the top tubes have come away from the sides at the weld. I noticed that it might not be that difficult to remove the gas struts after you remove the back of the seats, and un clip the upholstery, as mine is only held to the frames by the steel spikes on the frame and the holes in the leather/vynal sides of upholstery. Hope the above helps you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The dealer have them for like 30-40 bucks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E320iCoupe 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2010 Some pics I took last week, and only now had time to upload. For a fussy person like me, it needs a little bit of a tidy up, but it's a 23year old car after all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
