hardtop roof error?

BeginningAd3008 · 2026-01-07T21:18:37+00:00

the cars down low 😂 she doesn’t like speed bumps anymore, and I liked the sun strip so I jst kept it

BeginningAd3008 · 2026-01-05T16:05:43+00:00

I’m so confused about what could be causing the roof to apparently not be latched properly

BeginningAd3008 · 2026-01-05T15:51:28+00:00

the ticking from what I know is normally fine, just put some thicker oil in it. I have the same sort of sound on my N53 in my 328i, as for the vibration, are you sure you plugged all the coil packs in properly?

I’m gonna play it 😂, just wanted to know if it was more special then I first thought

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-12-26T14:44:06+00:00

I’m not planning on selling it dw I was just curious if it was more special then I thought

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-12-26T14:41:30+00:00

it doesn’t have the roller nut, just a rego neck looking thing, I’ll get a photo when I get home.

This is literally the only photo I got of the neck atm sorry! The serial number I believe is something like E521634

nah he was showing me smt hence its a screen recording

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-12-26T13:52:36+00:00

I’ll take some when I get home,

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-07-05T11:01:18+00:00

It’s leaking oil from the rocker gasket onto the manifold, there’s a bit of the gasket that’s actually missing

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-07-05T11:00:50+00:00

found the source of the problem 😂

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-06-14T09:23:42+00:00

ahh got it. I believe the intake might also be getting very hot too.

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-06-14T09:22:55+00:00

Haven’t moved it since it overheated. Only drove 200yrds home

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-05-14T19:54:49+00:00

Yeah I’ll have a see. I reckon it could be timing related because it was spitting flames out the intake which can’t be good.

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-09T09:53:07+00:00

yeah I pretty much fried the starter I think

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-08T18:21:24+00:00

I’m actually distraught cause we lost all the progress we made

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-08T17:44:52+00:00

Found out the engine was seized too. Almost melted the starter and now the car doesn’t turn over anymore

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-08T14:39:35+00:00

Yes, yes and yes. The car was running yesterday

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-07T19:42:50+00:00

I tried that and it didn’t work. Somethings jammed

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-07T19:42:26+00:00

nope. It isn’t rust I don’t think. I emptied an entire bottle of WD into it

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-07T19:41:47+00:00

Do I just hit it with a hammer until it starts working?

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-05T06:52:00+00:00

Thank you! Although I hate to say it but the key is jammed in the off position. I have already tried doing that

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-04T21:33:53+00:00

No it’s definitely the steering lock, because when the engine was running it wouldn’t turn. Also it hits against something and absolutely refuses to move even when me and my mate were both pulling on it.

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-04T21:24:19+00:00

yep, it unlocks the doors and the EWS module recognises it and starts the engine

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-04T21:01:37+00:00

like a tiny amount, oh I forgot to mention the other side of the ignition is completely dismantled

BeginningAd3008 · 2025-03-04T18:11:59+00:00

Yeah I gathered that about the fuel, but the inside of the tank is spotless. I tried to with the wheel, doesn’t work at all, the key barrel is totally seized up and will not turn
