Hi Wyze!
nice to see you again.
Too bad you blew the tranny, but good that you are going for the manual getrag 260!
The weekend is almost over, so how did the rebuild go?

alright as for an update of the car, haven't really touched it in a while, i ended up blowing the transmission (4hp22)
i only realized after the fact that these trannies are made of glass and the "a clutch pack" burnt because of no pressure relief valve/ the clutches stay pressurized after you put the car in gear, and don't relieve pressure untill you wait 30 secs and restart the car and make sure you don't change gears, oh yeah and you can't let the car rev while in park or neutral

hmm guess i was sitting around too much showing off the engine, revving too high, and i guess launching from neutral doesn't help

but at least i know now, nothing beats a manual 5 speed getrag 

hopefully the parts won't be too expensive and i'll be able to get it done this weekend

never rebuilt a transmission before, hmm we'll see how it goes

have you been able to find more information of this?

i've got nothing here from bmw north america

mind you we still don't have the 1 series here yet  , lol

well the engine itself will bolt right in, you'll need engine mounts from a e30 m20, and i'm sure you'll need the wiring harness and ecu from and e30 m20 325i


aside from that, for the trans are you 5 speed or auto

how did you enjoy your trip, sorry i haven't been around lately, running around everywhere

yeah unless it has the updated stereo your out of luck

i know bavauto.com has kits for other models(only north american models ), but unless you can find a local supplier(speed shop/ performance shop near you), your best bet is to searh on ebay for generic kits, or for the upgraded radio

should run you about 120-150 can dollars(not sure in euro) for the generic kit, and around 300-500can for the radio

let us know where your from so we can give you a hand to find a reasonable location near you

i'm not to familiar with newer bmws, but the lights that are on are most likely due to the brake pad sensors not being replaced when the brake pads were changed

it's a common thing most people will cut the sensors not realizing how cheap they are (around 17 each, you'll usually need 2, 1 for the front and 1 for the back)

quick way to find out is to jack up the car remove the tire and check the condition of the pads, and see if the sensors are still there

let us know how it goes

wtf??

wish i could understand

did he make a cover for his book shelf?

no need to repost topic, i replied to your post in the other section

hmm, well did you remove all the hoses and blow through?
the pump could still be clogged, maybe one of the connection/fittings could be clogged
by using a pin you may have blocked the nozzle more, if you soak the nozzles in grease remover and blow through you may be able to free whatever dirt is left

also to sii where the system is clogged you can remove the different sections of hoses to see where it is blocked
ie- remove the hose to nozzle and see if it squirts, then move down to the next fitting/connection remove hose and see if it sprays out of there

let us know how it goes, were always here to help
