i have a 1986 bmw 325e and i was wondering if i could add newer model parts to it–like from another 325e but newer year—–any newer year–like early/late 90’s or newer is it possible with ANY parts–interior (engine) and exterior (skirts and the such)????? pretty much anything from a 3-series 1984-1991 will fit. the body style is called "e30". the 325e was made until 1987, so the cars you would...

I rented one and it drove just great on the autobahn from Stuttgart to Baden-Baden. The next day, we had 5-7 cm of snow and I could barely control it. It would not stop well at all, I slid into a traffic circle at low speed and almost caused an accident. The forward traction was very poor- it would barley go up a small hill. What is your experience? My E39 5 series is the very worse car that I have owned in the snow. It will not get up a...

Im looking at 2 volkswagen passats. they are practicly the same car except one has an automatic 2.8L v6 and the other has a 1.8t inline 4 and its a manual I realize the six cylinder has more horsepower but since the other has a turbo and is manual wouldnt it accelerate faster? if the difference would be minmal then it doesnt matter.

The sensors you are talking about are the oxygen sensors. Sensor one is in front of the catalytic converter and very difficult to see with the...

you can maint yourself. check oil level,filter, change oil.

pulled into the garage, stepped out of my car and into a puddle of antifreeze. no indicator lights and no other signs of any problems. obviously need to get it to the dealership, but don’t know how safe it is to drive with no antifreeze. tried pouring water in to see how long it would stay in and it leaks out immediately. Fix it immediately. You no want to breaking your $45,000 beamer. Thanks you.

The manual suggests the VW507.00 oil (the only one which goes in both filtered and unfiltered engines) but I only have a choice of Castrol at the garage anyway… Under the terms of the VW warranty, you must use an approved oil that meets the 507.00 specification. This specification is for diesel motors that use "Pumpe duse" (PD)injection type system on the diesel and the oil is designed to prevent wear to the diesel...

I am searching for body parts, such as trim pieces, an exhaust system, a fuse box, a windshield motor…. look on eBay, or try Hemmings Motor News.
