Well the new to me 425i has turned out even nicer than expected. One quirk however is a very bouncy and inaccurate speedometer. Any opinions on whether this...
Ed - ALL of the bouncy speedos I have dealt with have been the sending unit attached to the tranny. It gets exposed to the the elements. Remove terminals,...
Ed, I've had the exact opposite experience as James. Do a search on this site and you will find numerous references to this problem and where the problem was...

Alexis, I second that! I drive my BT E as much as I can and the needle doesn't bounce even 1 mm. It just lays there on the zero pin while I guess my speed ...
The starter is balky again. You may recall that I had problems with it working on and off before . . . . now it seems like the starter "freezes up" if I...
Did you ever replace the starter? I don't recall everything you did before, but this is sounding to me like an issue with the starter solenoid or the starter...
So when this happens do you not even get a click or heavy thump sound? Mine used to hang when warm, but in the end it actually turned out to be a bad...
If the starter operates well when it goes I'd look for an electrical connection fault. With everything passing through the INTERCONNECT PANEL (IP) usually...
Sounds like the solenoid. I get NOTHING when I try to restart too soon - full battery charge, etc. but not even a click. It doesn't even try to crank. When...
There should be a white cabel 1,5mm , with a connector near the battery conector. Disconnect it and connect it to + of battery. It should crank now. ( make...

Hi, Those of you who also have Alfa GTV/75 would probably think of similar problems on these cars. On Alfa there is no starter relay and the solenoid high...

You should start by getting a comprehensive service manual as it will answer a lot of questions like these. Since this is an 87 you have the rubber o-rings at...
Jorge, I just finished removing the liners from my engine and they did require some lubricant and jockying to get them all the way out. In doing this I noticed...
So after finishing the removal of the liners from my GOC engine I noticed scribed numbering on the lower portion of tyhe liners (1->6) that does not match...
