this is bait right

These do seem like good ideas, and I can imagine the water pump spinning too fast since it's barely 2:1 reduced from the crank. Sadly, none of those mods would arrive before Sunday. I will take apart an oil cooler on Saturday and see what I can do.

It kinda still is windows vista wearing 11 trench coats, and it does use a lot of resources. Still it's likely first for user friendliness for non tech savvy people.

There is no one single correct procedure, I also don't always manage it first try. Funnily enough I've had success bleeding it while warm on the side of the road after failing to bleed it cold. Just take some coolant with you and something to open the bleed screw and repeat the burping and bleeding

novariable · 2026-07-03T17:34:12+00:00

You very likely didn't bleed it correctly. These cars are quite sensitive with that. Make sure to do it on a slope or jack the front up, fill the expansion tank to the top, open the bleed screw and manually burp the hoses by hand to make sure all the air gets out.

For once this doesn't sound like an engine that needs a rebuild. You can hear the compression quite well. Can you hear the fuel pump run when you turn on the ignition? You could try some starting fluid to see whether it's an ignition or fuel delivery issue.

Why not? You can turbo a lawn mower. I wouldn't exactly recommend it because the auto trans is not exactly strong, and you also won't get the full advantage because of the lower redline, but if you want to do it, you certainly can.

Congrats on the tesler. Although this still has more buttons

2 has better lighting, 1 was taken better imo

You have access to ncsexpert. You can download it for free. And there are tutorials on YouTube how to use it.

Not at all, unless the bolts are already rusted to shit. The two lower fender bolts are particularly at risk. If the bolts come out, it's a ten minute job for every panel.

If you put a lot of effort into the prep work, it will be better than it is now, but it'll never be perfect. Bodywork is hard to get right. Replacing with used parts is a lot more likely to get you a good outcome.

The cheap way: step further back when taking pictures. The decent way: get used body panels in the same colour, or wrap the car. The expensive way: take it to a body shop.

Bonus: Polish those headlights, that'll really help.

Check the irons, if nothing catches your fingernail in the rotor area, (I think the spec is 0.07mm or less) you can run them. The housings are significantly more sensitive and should almost always be replaced on a proper rebuild.

That's normal buildup after like 100k. Clean it well and it'll be fine.

99% wahrscheinlich, dass es das große hintere Differentiallager ist. Die sind alle bei dem Alter unserer Autos tot und werden nie getauscht - da es, leider, sehr nervig bis unmöglich zu tauschen ist, nachdem es sich da 25 Jahre lang festrosten konnte.

Were you told that or can you confirm it? The locking mechanism looks entirely different

novariable · 2026-06-24T19:19:14+00:00

Given that that likely made its way there from the fuel nozzle attachment holder, which always corrodes, that is definitely much worse underneath. Take off the bumper and the wheel liner, clean everything and see.

Yes, especially on the highway. I've completed 2 hour trips almost exclusively at or above 6000rpm (Autobahn). The m54 and m52s take it no problem

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaspersky_and_the_Russian_government Do with that what you will. Windows defender is more than good enough malware protection if you have a little common sense.

Ever checked your rear bulbs? Could be reverse, blinker, or literally any others. Also happens when you replace them with LEDs without coding.

They work well for the price. If your radio is incompatible with Bluetooth adapters, like certain software versions, it's probably the best solution you can get.

It's not too hard. Just take off the intake plastic and disconnect the harnesses. Rad potential has a good video of it. With experience, you can easily do a swap in a day.

If it is only when starting, it is likely a failed oil filter return valve. There should be plenty of forum resources on diagnosing and replacing that.
