Ordered ignition coil from BMW dealership today, so many parts incoming from Dingolfing...

SO which coil is the best option for the NA version of the M30? Bosch I guessing here. Mine is still the OEM 30 year old coil.

I will have to buy a camera soon. When I do I will post up for sure man.

Holy crap no!? I thought the hoodlight engaged when in "p" it states in the owners manual. O.K. I must try that, thanks mate. The mats I sourced from my local BMW dealership (Brent is the man) here in Victoria BC Canada, my mats, the last ones available arrive in 2 weeks from Germany they ...

O.K. I am ranting here but, what happened to customer service in 2018? I don't think I will ever go to a parts store where the people can't even stay on task, I step up to the counter and ask for price and availability of a ignition coil for my shark. I give him the year and all related info, then s...

No need for floor mats now, I ordered some from stealership but thanks anyhow.

When I pulled mine out they broke off and left the plastic bits that were the hook portion inside the metal rod. Thanks for the tip's guys I will drill the remainder out.

Ordered new center caps from BMW dealership for my TRX style 1's and also new floor mats for Sonja, should be here in 2 weeks from Germany WOOOO HOO!

O.K. I have searched the forum for a few hrs. now to find out how people removed the remaining plastic piece out of the metal rail. I bought a tool pick set, to assist me with this I have removed the end caps but now the remaining plastic, won't budge. Short of heating the crap out it, but don't wan...

Very cool, but my question is why do this? Our cars are becoming more and more rare everyday, why not leave it stock? As to retain its' resale values. And retain BMW's rich history. I feel honored to drive a historical car. Just my curious monkey mind asks WHY?

WOW dude what we do without you? On a side note thanks for the suggestion on swapping in a new ICV idles pretty good.


NOW Back to our regularly scheduled programing LOL

Swapped in newer and cleaned ICV so far so good idle @750-800 YAY But while I was in the engine bay checking connecetors I noticed a connector broken at the hilt, it is the most forward facing connector on the left hand side of the themostat housing, it has it's own metal bracket the connector was s...

Floormats? pics?

And again thank you so much for this! Made my weekend!

Brucey would that hose #13 be used for the cold start phase? As in providing warm or more air with the cold start injector? Upon start up?

Thank you Brucey I will clean it again, it seems to run intermittently, so it may be, I will have to trace all the wires back to ECU?

What pray tell, is the "minor damage"?

LOL

O.K. so my 6er has a low idle @ 500 RPM and has cold start issues, I have replaced the AFM and reset the swipers, I have replaced all vacuum hoses, new NGK spark plugs new air filter new distributor, wires, new battery, new fuses in fuse box. I am frankly running out of ideas here! When the IACV is ...

My headers came back today from Jet-Hot coatings. These are EBay from Germany Stainless Exhaust headers. Look pretty good.. Looks like Chrome feels like powder-coat. Better packaging than I sent... https://i.imgur.com/opt5bWf.jpg Dent was there already... https://i.imgur.com/hJa1yGA.jpg https://i.i...

I had a Borla on my old 83 e28 it sounded awesome! I just checked website I couldn't find any for our 6er's though.

Wow looks like it connects to the intake manifold to use recirculated warm air to help with cold start valve upon start up? As for replcement you could easily get away with a fuel rated hose/tubing. That looks like an M20 engine if I'm not mistaken or that an M10?

Yesterday I took the battery out to install OEM battery tie down clamp I sourced from the local wreckers, and cleaned out the battery tray zero rust! but I started feeling around in the subframe located next the battery tray and found tons of gipe, acorns and tree litter etc, and removed about a 6&q...

Change to new bulbs and add dielectric grease. Sometimes bulbs are improperly working from China factories. Also swap in a new fuse for said application.
