OP hasn't replied to my post or PM. I am pretty sure it does not have a large case diff. A lot of the 83 and 84 Euro's had a 2.73 diff, usually open (at least from what I've seen). One of the UK/Euro guys on here might have a better answer though. I've only personally seen large case diffs on M cars.

I need a passenger side fender trim for my '85. The trim piece I need is circled in the picture. Also looking for a rust free, non-dented fuel door. Color does not matter, but black would be great. Trim pic: http://s1318.photobucket.com/user/603Racing/media/Parts/trim%20piece_zpsn0747ton.jpg.html

Very good point.

I've also seen the strut mount nuts tightened too much cause binding with strut top bearings Brucey mentioned.

That is true. It thought a workaround was to rev the system enough to excite it regardless of the bulb. Maybe that doesn't work if your cluster is really messed up like mine. Only my gas gauge works.

Update: I had the battery and alternator tested, both passed. I charged the battery overnight just to be sure it has enough juice. Put everything back in the car. Started it and I'm getting 12.2v at idle. I rev it a bit and no change. Swapped the voltage regulator, no change. I know the light in my ...

I have a set, but I'm looking for a nice set as opposed to restoring mine.

Definitely could be. I do know the majority of my cluster does not work, so one of those two are likely the cause.

I actually like them in those pics. I think it would highly depend on how they match up with the car color and setup.

Edit: Not a fan of the "stance" though... those poor tires.

I'm thinking I've seen low voltage there in no-start scenarios on my old e30 eta. That particular case ended up being an intermittent short in the ignition switch. I would check injector pulse. That signal and timing is dictated by the flywheel sensor. That could help find or eliminate possible issu...

If I can find a set, I'd sell you mine. I've been looking for a while.

Back in the market for this. I need a complete known working cluster. It's ok if the speedo and/or odo do not work, but the rest should be in good working order. I do need the earlier style e24 cluster for my '85.

Are the injectors pulsing when you crank the engine?

Adding to a very old thread for additional info. My '85 635 idles at 10.8v and the anit-lock light is on in the cluster. When I rev the car the light goes out. I have not checked the voltage after this event (will do that today) but I bet it's related to the charging system being excited. I'm wonder...

Speed and crank sensors are the first thing that come to mind.

Early and late dashes the same?

Did they measure your camber and caster as well? If you are getting inside tire wear on both front tires, there isn't too much that could be wrong with the alignment that will cause that. That is usually caused by: -incorrect toe adjustment -excessive negative camber -caster fits into the equation, ...

I would say no.

I'm sure they are amazing, and they look great. I do have a fairly healthy budget for seats, but not near that healthy.

Well, my only issue with those is that I want seats that are in good condition. I have working seats, but the leather is shot. I may just break down and restore them.

Threw some nice style 29's on the dark shark.
