    This is why I love California. No need to change anything. This is going to be my first German winter, so we'll see how this goes. My wagon had to sit outside all winter while I was in Afghanistan last year and it's definitely feeling the pain.

            200 lbs in old hardened concrete, oust the aluminum shift knob in favor of leather and put on a steering wheel cover... and a shovel for when i get stuck in a ditch from drifting.

                      I put on the bottlecaps/snow tires, a bra on the front, and this year I think I need to change out the trans fluid to some redline synthetic type stuff. Shifting was a little hard last year. Plenty of undercarriage washes too. When do you guys do it? I rock winter configuration from the end of October until the beginning of April.

                          add STABIL to the gas tank, take battery out, lube all rubber gaskets, put car cover on park in garage.

                          Put battery back in the winter E30, change oil, and brake fluid. carry on my merry way.

                            What do you use for the gaskets?

                              Hey guys, pick up this stuff. Best shit ever



                              BMW used to sell it under the name Gummi Pfledge, now autosol makes it. It's the best 8 bucks you'll ever spend.

                              It keeps your weatherstripping/gaskets/sunroof from freezing to the doors/windows in the winter. I use it year around to keep all my weatherstripping in good condition. Bav Auto also sells it in the car care section. Hope this helps
