    Winterizing your e30..

    So here in Indiana it's been getting down to the 30s and they have been doing a lot of road work in my area lately. So I put the bottlecaps back on and removed my front valence. What about you guys? It may not ve needed or too soon for a lot of you.

      I put it in my barn, put a tender on the battery, cover it and wait for spring.

                  I also had the body shop do the rocker panels with blau bedliner, and then do the motor oil and ATF fluid treatment to the inside of the doors.

                  Do want.

                      Winterizing? What is that?

                      I gave the car a bath, wax, and cleaned out the interior.

                        Magical thing we do up north. Has to do with a season change. I guess you don't experience those though.

                          Yeaaaaaaaaa for bi seasons!
                          Hot & not hot.

                          We get year round driving and can wear shorts and a t shirt on christmas day in the day time though. If we want to see snow, we just go up north and visit it, then go back home.

                          We also use crushed volcanic rock instead of salt on the roads too.

                              M3 gets a little coolant swapped in and covered in the garage, iX gets the the steelies and blizzards back on, and like Joe G, out comes the tahoe.
