Out of all the e30s i've owned, I've never...

[Julien]

yeah, I've never seen a failed window motor or regulator on an E30. All of mine are original.

The window switches, however, are total shit..

I had an 88 sedan with 3? broken window regulators. Weird.

...had a broken odometer or failed guibo...

woaaaa?!

Killed a window motor. All 3 of my coworkers with e30's have broken window motors. I've never had one go bad in 13 years of ownership of 9 e30's.

If you know anything about E30s and you break a timing belt, you're a fucking idiot. :p

I think I've done it all, lol. I guess owning the same car this long it makes more sense, some things I've done more than once..

Never had 1 leave me stranded
- Broken timing belt
- Overheated

Same here re: timing belts.. Overheating though, that's another story :|

I have never had a problem popping off/on the bitch clip on the shifter

Funny how sometimes you can avoid common issues over and over. I've owned 20ish e30s now and I've never:

- Had to replace SI board batteries
- Put one in a ditch/had an accident
- Lost an IS lip


How about you guys?
