I might suspect the temperature sensor switch. Since it starts well cold, the cold start injector seems to be doing its job. I don't think that really...
Dear Bimmer Group, I have a oil leak problem on a 1985 318i M10, E30, and I'm not sure where its coming from. I took my time and put on a new oil pan gasket...
If you're unlucky, there is a leak at the rear crankshaft seal. You probably couldn't see any traces of this leak except for the oil deposited on the floor...
My 84 318 hesitates badly and idles rough after the engine wrams up. I can disconnect the vacuum advance hose and the vacuum advance relay with no apparent...

Hi Denis, The seller is telling you the truth. BMW installed the same tach on 4- and 6-cylinder E-30s. Depending on which motor the tach was destined to...

Adam, I haven't been following this group lately but... The heater bearings and brushes are easily accessable from the firewall under the hood. My heater...
