Cheers Guys.. been busy since I joined last year!!!!...

Well not long after signing up took the car to a garage as it made an odd clunk from the rear, worn bushes everywhere.. and cracks in rear floor!!!..so £900 later allsorted. Well 4 months later front felt a bit whimmy, worn fornt rear CR bush and leaking front shock, then the battery light came on.. So fa he's had (its a boy my wife says so!) new front control arms, shocks, alternator, rear discs and pads, hand brake shoes, thermostat and water pump later, oh adn angels eyes linked to remote lights/and set as DRL's the car is driving great or will be once I fit the shocks and controls arms.. bit annoying but meh, when we drive the car its great!..

Heres a couple of pictures the day we picked it up and of both my two bits of pride and joy!

      BMW 318i boot locked can’t get into

      Update: I checked my battery and it charged in 5 minutes, so I don't have to find another alternator. All seems to be OK except for the plastic "L"s with a short rubber hose that bypass the HV/AC solenoid. Those get clogged after @ 150,000-190,000 miles (if distilled water wasn't used) and cause air pockets that try to burst radiators. I have a few more brass "L"s, so now I can throw the plastic ones away. I have to be careful I don't fog the windows though, without heat or cool.

      105C thermostat replacement

      You are absolutely right. The strange thing is that when I put the chassis number on the realoem it shows that the temp sensor is not applicable on my vehicle. I will physically check for a sensor. In the meantime, do you think that the removal of the MAP activated thermostat will effect the temp gauge on the dial instrument item 6? I am tempted to add a dummy resistor , 11.5ohms - 13watts , to simulate the MAP thermostat. Your thoughts?

      SLIPPING CLUTCH

      Morning Andrew I normally disconnect the Neg lead only, some folks disconnect both a few even say disconnect both and touch them together. Goes without saying both sensor plugs need to be checked and a squirt of contact cleaner applied never hurts 😅 Dave

      SLIPPING CLUTCH

      Hi Dave, I fitted one of the sensors on the rear but it has made no effect as the light is still there, I will fit the other sensor tomorrow and see how it goes then. You mention the disconnect the battery, is there any pattern to this ? is it both leads or just the negative lead? cheers Paneuro.
