What type of seats are you looking for good sir?

[ak-]

is that your skinny arms? lol

yeah those half shafts are fucked

no that's not me lol.
Just a vid I found.

I vote half shafts. I replaced mine and the clunk went away. i orig thought it was the driveshaft and then the dif, last item was the half shafts and it was resolved.

there is a guy that sells them on here rebuilt who i bought them from for $350 shipped. Came with everything you need to replace them.

Thanks, this makes me a bit more confident.

I really hate my 316i now.

sadface

Are half shafts not supposed to have any play? Just checked mine and they move in and out just like that but, I don't have the clunk you describe when easing off the clutch.

Yes they are suppose to have some play, an in and out motion to and from the diff, like the video. Not suppose to have any other play but from that. Though, I don't know what too much play is!

Bret's experience makes me want to replace them anyways :o

How old are your plugs.. And are you misfiring at all?

Plugs are less than a month old. No misfiring.
Leaky head gasket.

I'm going to swap. :)

Is it just the headgasket causing that one cylinder to be low on compression?

[Robert]

Robert , find any info on my surprise?

[Robert]

Yup , because that's exactly where it's leaking from.
