    Did some interior cleaning






    Need a deeper cleaning but this will do for now


    Missing hood cover


    Saved this from the part car


    Replaced non bmw fuses with BMW fuses


    Mounted the i lip and draining the radiator


    After many attempt trying to loose the clutch fan, one push with the chain wrench was a breeze. How could I had not think about this yesterday. This chain wrench is a must own.




    So I though maybe the belt snap or skip a tooth so i torn down the front and there wasn't any sign of belt failure until i removed the spark plug. Cylinder 3 was busted. So what could had cause it?


    This pretty much explain the hard start and once it does start it makes a boom/rattle then die.

    I'm living with my parents (they won't let me to move out) but I'm planning to move pretty soon as I am sick of this hoa crap. The Realtor lied to my parents about not having hoa. After the first month a letter from the hoa showed up demanding over due balance by the previous owner. My dad was piss but it was too late to back out. Btw he is a first time home buyer.

    Any way, our across the street neighbor is a hoa whore. He snitch and spy on us every chances he gets. He say our cars are too loud and its scaring his grand kids, but he has a loud as harely. I can't wait to get out of this shit hole.

    I didn't get much done this evening. Adjusting the sunroof panel took longer than I had expected. Finally after a hour I finally got it sitting where I wanted. A little here and there and time quickly passed by.




    I need a screw driver to complete my set


    Fixed






    For some reason cracking gas cap seal always bug me


    I hate people who screw things on the center console. Every e30 I bought have the center console all screwed up.


    Where it belong


    Old


    New


    Time consuming sucker


    Adjusted
