Has happened a couple times in the past......

Had a bad starter, got one rebuilt turned out the rebuilt one was a POS as well..

New one is doing fine!

My brother ran out of gas while I was in the car. His Ek Hatch got stolen and he borrowed my car for a few days. After I got it back it was never the same car. He ran out of gas and tried to get as far as he could on fumes, we pushed it a 1/2 mile uphill and we got tired and it was freezing out. Gas station was another 1/2 mile ahead. Thats the one and only time.

Ran out of fuel picking up parts for the dirty twice last week. Good to see where my priorities are.

Blew a heater core hose on the way to the beach once. I was less knowledgeable than I am now so I was basically fucked.

And then my battery died in this process

I've ran outta gas once cuz my low gaz lite decided to stop wurking during teh time my gas meter waved at me like a 2 year old in a parade and I din't haz my 13 button OBC at the time.

That's what mine did!!!

My E39 died a bunch of times over dumb shit, the E30's only when something catastrophic happens.

[SpeicherBimmer]

Mine has been good to me so far; we'll see if that changes with the M30 in it now.

First time I got stranded
Cause: No gas


2nd time
Cause: No gas/filter clogged




3rd time
Cause: Got lost looking for a gas station lol



4th time
Cause: Fouled plugs; cut out at night. In the rain. With my sister. Friend pushed me home with his w124 wagon and tucked half my bumper (they were drilled already)



I have had many a noob moment Last one was just really bad timing

Once, when my brand new URO clutch master cylinder decided to break.

Don't buy URO parts.
