It just logged me out while trying to reply to the shark tee shirt thread. I refreshed the page, logged back in and my posting wasn't there, so posted it again, and then BOTH postings showed up, and it logged me out again. It appears it's not completely fixed.

Well?

Good luck with that, Rainer. He apparently hasn't been back here in a month and a half.

It's only logged me out once today, and that was on my janky phone, so I think whatever you did, it worked. THANK YOU! (it was really annoying, but we all survived )

PM him, Luc. I don't think he checks the forum regularly, but should get an email alerting him to a PM.

If I'd seen this listing a few weeks ago I'd have bought it myself. Good luck.

Have a great time, Bobbo! Looking forward to seeing the pictures!

That's not abuse. That's what the E24 was made for, to be driven. Nothing sadder than a garage queen that is beautiful but unused.

we'll get it sorted

Thanks! I sure hope so. It seems to be getting worse.

I've been logged out several times without me having done so. I always click the "remember me" box when logging in. Several times in the last hour I've been logged out while changing forums within the Bigcoupe.com site. I went from The Saloon to the Interior forum and I was logged out. I logged in, ...

Wow, Greg, good to have you back!

Don't feel like that. I've been washing my cars for 50+ years and never even heard of the two-bucket method until recently. Considering I plan on having at least two of the BMWs painted next year, that process will change. Professional paint is too expensive to ruin with sloppy washing practices.

The "faces" of those two cars are so alike, yet different. The cabrio (which I would happily drive any day, all day. I am very partial to red cars) looks aggressive and eager. The 5er looks smug and sinister.

One of the detailing videos I watched on YouTube had one in use. The detailer seemed to like it. Anything to get the dirt off the cleaning sponge/mop and have the residue drop to the bottom of the bucket.

hope that helps.

Yikes. I hate to tell you, but copper is a no-no when it comes in contact with aluminum. You should use a zinc-based antiseize.

Excellent project. I hope you used some appropriate anti-seize on the new stainless hardware. The chance for serious galvanic corrosion between aluminum and stainless is even worse than regular steel. I've seen way too much of that in aluminum locomotive horns, where the stainless fasteners just a f...

Putting an un-gutted actual working pre-pump back in the tank will very likely solve that problem. The purpose of the pre-pump was to prevent just what you're experiencing. I'm really curious why you gutted the pump.

double post. sorry.

Tommy, that's awfully light viscosity for our old, large clearance engines. Just saying.

I have had those same Kumho tires (same size, even) on two of my BMWs. My daughter wore out a set on her 95 318is (60k+ miles) and I have about 10k on those on my 633. Two things: they seem to change little in grip throughout their life, but they do get noisy at 15-20k miles. For the price they are ...

When they came out with that color a few years ago on the M3/M4, I called it "Bile Duct Yellow". It is hideous. They even use it in one of their national commercials. My wife said "that's not really a color option, is it? Are they blind?" All I can say is that color-blindness must be more rampant th...

Welcome, Wormie! Post some pictures of your project!

Welcome to the insanity!

He's on r3vlimited.com, as he said.

Another amazing project with excellent results. I feel certain that you could do a complete car repaint with the same results. With your determination and resolve it would get done. You are an inspiration to us all.

I am amazed yours are intact. Be ready to see the plugs crumble when the socket end is removed (hope not, but....) The wire clips on those plugs are intended to be pushed from the back side, which will spread open the clips, allowing the plug to come out. You don't have to pry the clip off (though y...
