thunking when i got over bumps on the road and sloppy steering.

Need, to fix some small electrical problems. Light wont turn on when the doors open, and the coolant sensor is out, Also my fuel gage doesn't work.

And my clutch just started slipping REALLY bad now. I guess consequently, my throwout bearing is getting a lot louder when not in gear. Gotta get my ass to the task and install the new one already.

now my key is VERY hard to turn to unlock my car. This is going to be a weekly update with my winter racer I think.

1) Sunroof is busted. It's cockeyed. Permanently retired.

Haha, fuck sunroofs... when I paint my E28 and my E30, them bitches are getting welded shut!

[James Crivellone]

Goddamn! You're going for a record here.

I don't even have the motor I want yet.

[Erick]

Yup, alternator just went. w00t.

My intake boot has a crack in it, I'll be getting it fixed soon though.

[express_wagon]

I know its about new problems, but I am listing mine anyways.

1) Sunroof is busted. It's cockeyed. Permanently retired.
2) Power locks, bye.
3) Electrical system doesn't shut off after key is out. Manual battery switch was put in.
4) Idle still kind of sucks.
5) Brake fluid light flickers. It has brake fluid.
6) One fog light
7) Rust

I guess I am lucky compared to you guys.

so, an hour ago, I tried to start my car(its about 30 degrees out) I turned the key, it started cranking, fired up, but the starter stayed engaged, turned the key off, but it still stayed engaged. So I did what all BMW mechanics would, got out, kicked the fender, and it honestly stopped cranking. Got back in, and now it works fine!

Man I LOVE my automatic ETA!!!!!!!!!



ohhh, the water is still on the floor(about 3 1/2") now, so i imagine the inside of my windshield should start freezing up really nice soon.

ivo316 - thanks for the info but I was making a reference to the habits of some e30 owners deleting things they are unable or unwilling to fix like cruise control (fixed mine), ABS (fixed mine) and AC (removed belt and intend to delete). I was just a little po'd that I have to spend $200 in the new windshield instead of something fun.

I have gas in the tank but the fuel gauge light is oN, WTF

[euroshark]

Need to install driveshaft
Need to build exhaust... buy a used muffler and run straight pipes
Shocks and springs
Slight rubbing issue between the block and drivers side of the tranny tunnel opening
Tach...

Not too much to complain about really. For an M30 its gone smoothly, and considering that I never get to work on the thing because it's 25 degrees in the garage and I have yet to borrow my buddy's welder... I hope I get it done by summer!
