Does battery stuff. gotcha, Varta seems to have a good shout however the Varta E44 that was recommended to me earlier by the shop wasnt an AGM battery reckon thats fine? or should I go with the top dollar Varta A7 that is rated AGM and at 70Ah lol 1 hour ago, Eagle said: Hella brand.

BreakMyWindow 1895 Report post Posted 14 hours ago Does the starter motor need to come out to easily access the hole for locking the flywheel at tdc or has someone got a trick where you can get to the hole from underneath the car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2138 Report post Posted 13 hours ago Starters pretty easy to take out. Just unbolt the manifold and move it out of the way. Picked up a cheap 06 Auto today. Needs paint but otherwise has an extensive service history including it's Japanese history. 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2138 Report post Posted 3 hours ago I actually wonder if the blue one was a Bimmersport members car once. Ton of work by Botany BM Workshop. Still has a BM Workshop plate surround. Since then it was driven by a young girl. Spent hours yesterday getting the makeup off everything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I nearly purchased a white 120i this morning too. But I am going to help the guy out instead. Replaced his Valvetronic and is unable to reset the adaptations.
