I have a 1990 325i Convertible with removable hardtop and softtop in Carrollton, Texas.
In the past six months I've replaced:
Armrests
Battery
Belts
Clutch Plate
Door latch Trim
Driver Door Lock
Exhaust
Fog lights
Fuse Cover
Glove Box & latch
Hood weatherstrip
Hoses
Motor mounts
Oil / filter change
Radiator
Slave Cylinder
R12 added to A/C
Rear Seat (top & bottom)
Rear Window weather strips
Shifter Leather Boot
Thermostat
Timing belt
Tires & wheels (basketweaves)
Transmission external output flange
Trunk Strut (lift Support)
Trunk weatherstrip
Water pump
Window Switches
Repairs done by BMW Tech Philip Tripp - Bimmer Mobile Specialist (12 yrs @ BMW of Dallas)
Heated seats & all electrical works but heater fan squeals.
A/C blows cold.
Engine & transmission are strong... runs great.
Auxiliary fan only runs on high speed. Needs to be replaced or check wiring.
Cluster lights do not work (behind speedometer, temp guage, & tachometer)
Front right brake drum needs replacement & pads. Have the drum to put on but have not bought pads.
I've turned down offers of $1200 and $1500 for the removable hardtop as it makes the car much quieter and more unique. I've been considering a trade for a Black 1990 325is or sell for $4000. I've had quad bypass and have a tough time removing the hardtop. I miss having a moonroof.
