Got one of my wishes !!!...From this past weekend... 2010 Spring Rally Prequel

Oh and the campfire smoke was like something from heaven....

Not entirely sure, I was in Auburn. But apparently he backed the car out of the garage with the driver's side door open.

Might I suggest some remedial education,

Dude... he backed into the garage. That means... NO more driving...

This /\... Really is a bad move...

[tn325i]

Sounds like someone's ready to get high.

I am getting desperate for campfire smoke and it is better at altitude... It's been way too long..

What model is your car and what model did the door come from. Mine's an 87 325 and it will not lock with the door open. Do you have central locking?

Also, some models (mine included) have a physical interlock built into the door lock mechanism which prevents it from locking till the door is latched.

Yes to central locking. Mine is a '90 325iA. Not sure where the donor door came from. Also, not sure if this matters, but the driver's side lock was replaced a few years ago.

Sounds like something could be bent in the mechanism... Bring it to the mtns (Rally) and have some of the E30 Dr's give it a look over !

That might actually be it.

He backed out with the door open? I hope your parent's took his license away...

He is kind of clueless with car stuff sometimes. And he is still driving. Although, if I buy the E30 from the 'rents, he will get my dad's old Merc (which my brother hates driving) and my dad will pick up a police interceptor.

There are many things fixed while we are hideing in the trees at altitude:razz: !...

Not entirely sure, I was in Auburn. But apparently he backed the car out of the garage with the driver's side door open. Messed up the door, and the wall in the house. Got a guy coming sometime to fix the house.

Got the car back today, fixed that and another dent/scratch on the car. Got the door from a red car (can see a little bit of the paint where there is a little scratch inside the door). But I have this question. The old door, I could lock using the door, even when it was open. That way I didn't need to use the key to lock the car. Now it doesn't do that. What gives?

Well the damage my brother did to my car didn't end up totally it, so that is good. But I still need to find a summer job if I want to come out on this...

Get to cracking! You better come Doug! What the hell he do?

What happened ?
