My new Project

[shadowbethesda]

Hi guys,
I just picked up a 1990 325i (slushbox). I really wanted a manual coupe but what can you do? Timing belt/water pump and hoses have been done. Ties rods, a couple of tires and the valve cover gasket, transmission filter and fluid are next on the menu.
Cell phone antenna was removed this morning as well as a bunch of window stickers.

Yeah I actually like the all white. Paint shop for touch up in a few weeks. :nice:

Perfect start though.

It actually doesn't look bad with the white trim. Post up pics after the touch up!

At the shop now. Just had valves adjusted, new valve cover gasket, fuel filter, air filter, rubber plugs for valve cover, spark plugs, cap/rotor, belts and drivers side inner/outer tie rods installed.

Glad to have another Marylander! Car looks good, and you know there's always a 5spd conversion...

Time for better than I-phone pics... I replaced the on board computer bulbs today. And replaced a dome light bulb while I was at it. Aside from that she has been trouble free.

Yeah but I sort of like it to be honest. ;)

The seats are driving me crazy though... They won't stay locked in position. Obviously something is wrong with the recline mechanism. I looked for write ups but only found them for the sport model seats not the basic cloth models in my car. Anyone have any ideas?

Try WD-40 on the hinges.
