kiwi535 538 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) Also, I have quite a bad case of "wiper knock" where the wiper arms come into contact with the edge of the bonnet. I've got the writeup on how to replace the wiper rack (looks painfully difficult), but does anyone know if these things can be reconditioned or if I just have to try my luck with a second hand one that hopefully has a lot of life left in it? this is a known issue with e 34s....i cant quite remember where my links are to the fix(es).This is a great place for E34s Edited June 4, 2012 by kiwi535 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark 178 Report post Posted June 8, 2012 The E28 is sexy pamts! Yeah yeah, i know... Leave the E28 bromance comments in Matt's threads haha! This is where i can get some small amount of love for the pudgy faced E34! this is a known issue with e 34s....i cant quite remember where my links are to the fix(es).This is a great place for E34s I have the fix for it.... Just psyching myself up to do it as it's a mammoth pain in the arse to do. New today - two new Pirellis to pass a WOF and the Pelican Parts order has been shipped.

Mark 178 Report post Posted October 22, 2012 Crappy update time, Found this on TM... proper 5 series fitment Tech II. Now to get it running again, fuel pump is dead and so is battery. Just gonna have it towed to the mechanic to get everything sorted so I can start driving it in this nice weather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
