Picture 1

This is the second E36 I have owned.

It is pretty much factory standard, and hasn't been modified.

I have owned her for about a year, and have had very little trouble with her.

Recently she has been playing up a bit, becoming difficult to start.

Engine will crank a good few times before she bursts into life.

I suspect there are possible worn piston rings in one of the cylinders (126,000 miles)

Haven't done a compression test yet, once the readings have been taken, then I can decide how to proceed

further.
