Weekly Meet in College Park Starbucks

[kts]

Ugh I was at work with my E30 and drove right past here and forgot all about this. Doh!

[Kershaw]

yep, as long as I can get my car charged up, it died again. :( I guess it wasn't the speaker draining the battery...

is this a new problem?

what was the last thing you did to the car?

[ldsbeaker]

I've seen some pretty bad ground wires on the alternators of 2 of the last 3 BMWs I've worked on.

Ive been having some drainage issues too, electrical... I need to check that ground. Same thing plagued my VW.

My battery kept dying do to the fact my radio antenna was bent and it would get stuck and the motor would keep running to put it down. Happened to someone else I knew as well. Its an idea...

the e36 is back up and running, I still haven't discovered the original power draw but at the very least I can still drive the car. I'm hoping to pinpoint the problem this weekend. I haven't had the ability to check for corrosion on the ground wire

And then who would be able to drive everyone to the yard on sundays??

[ldsbeaker]

See you guys on Friday.
I don't think that my e28 is gonna make it this time (it would be perfect, huh Yun?)
But I may be coming up with someone in their M6. Maybe.

[Kershaw]

gonna bring my ix out this friday. :)

How can you tell a real M6? I saw an 88 recently with the badging and some fancier looking wheels.

I may be out this Friday, again. See what the household plans are.

Cody's Saturn FTW.

[whitewatermd]

We should be there as long as it is not raining...

[ldsbeaker]

gonna bring my ix out this friday. :)

I thought it was a disaster?
If it's driving...

Hopefully my e28 will be mostly done and daily driveable in the next week or so, then I can start work on MY ix.
I have so many parts just waiting for it. The only thing I don't have that I need to order is new tires. I have to pick the best 4 out of 7 weaves. Okay, maybe 5. Gotta have a spare...
