    Sounds like an evap system issue. I'd check the canister and lines to and from it. My E30 is missing its canister and just has an open vent hard line. It has never smelled like gas under the hood.

      so many reasons to have it.

      When driving hard, especially on a tight corner, the inner wheel just loses traction and the car will just roll thru the corner.

      I cant stand that shit

      if you don't drive the car hard or "hoon" it i wouldn't worry about it.
      I know exactly what you're talking about, She acts like she is going to lose control even when I am driving her hard so It's why I'm currently on the hunt for a messed up 325es or 325is for that limited slip and everything else. I'm putting better tires and upgrading to a good set of springs and shocks but without that LSD and a rear sway bar, She will continue to barrelroll through corners and make me feel like i am driving a boat.

        How are your bushings, specifically rear subframe, trailing arm, and differential?

        You might be surprised, a new set of OEM rubber bushings could be what you need.

          They're worn but still useable, However I'm planning to run a 80a bushing kit from garagistic since it'll just replace everything without thinking too much. I'm still throwing in a LSD for fun!

            Both are going to really transform the car.

              Unsure why people still use most Garbageistic parts.
