    Hi, Im a bit stumped by a fault with both front windows on my 1997 323i convertible. Both front windows don't go up or down at all. This also means they don't drop and raise when opening and closing the doors. The rear windows work fine as does everything else on the car. I have scanned the...

    Hi Guys! My mother-in-law has a beautiful E36 320i (I believe?) in almost immaculate condition. It seems to have some M badges on the steering wheel and gear shifter and is a 1.9L engine. She bought it from the initial owner in about 1999 and has run it as a daily driver ever since - it's...

    As far as I can tell, the leak is coming from the 2 hoses: the fluid is leaking just above where it's clamped i.e. from where the hoses go into the PAS resevoir housing. The fluid then just drips down the pipe - it's not gushing out but over a few days it covers the hose. I don't see any cracks...

    I had to remove the sump because it was leaking and the new MOT rules are that they only allow a certain amount of oil leak. I did replace the seal/gasket on the oil filter housing which was also leaking. No parts diagram showed there were an additional 3, Torx bolts (~60mm long) that were...

    It seems to be a support bar, just behind the sump, running across the car, with two huge bolts holding it in place, one on each side. I can't find it any diagram unless I'm looking in the wrong place. I need to know the part number of the 2 bolts that hold it in place. Thanks

    Hi Guys The top storage cover is not fully closing because some of the hood material does not fully detract into the storage area. Some of the material rests on the back behind the rear headrests and, consequently, the top cover does not fit snuggly down. Is there any adjustment that would...

    Just want to double-check that when I replace the oil filter, the only rubber seal I use is the large one that goes on the screw in cap? With the filter I also got a couple of small rubber seals and I tend not to use those. Am I supposed to use them? This diagram seems to show them...

    My wife has a 1997 740I with an electrical problem. When you slide the visor mirrors and the light comes on the radio cuts off. When you do it with the car off it will not start until you slide it back. I removed the fuse for the visor and it still does the same thing. Any advice??
