I'm fairly new to E30's still and would much like some more professional advice on some things. Thanks, here they are:
1) The ride in my '87 325es sucks, needs suspension upgrade. Feels like no shocks/struts, only steel bars under there. I feel EVERY bump, no question about it, bad for the car. Will getting new shocks/struts take car of this? If I spend my money on new shocks or struts and the ride still sucks, I mean, what else??? What kind of shocks do you guys recommend? thanks
2)Oil pressure sending unit that screws in beneath the block as been leaking a little bit of oil. Are there any special procedures for changing this? Does the engine have to be empty of oil/if it is removed when engine is oiled will oil gush out like you're draining it from the plug itself?
3)When my A/C is turned on while my car idles, it occasionally makes this god-awful, terrible screeching sound that emanates from beneath the car making every single surrounding person within a damn half-mile glare at my car with a startled & very puzzled face. What the hell? :(
Gotta go for now...will definitely think of more things and edit-post them either with this or separately. Thanks a hell of a lot for the help and generous advice. Happy E30ing
