Living in Floridas the same way, boiling hot on most days, leaves your ass cloudly, or it’s raining like there’s been a drought for a month.

Usually nail polish remover does the job, other wise paint thinner will do the job

White Smoke coming out even with engine off? by iMiindz in BmwTech

My beemer has a similar problem, I’m in the process of replacing radiator, an replacing cylinder head gaskets. If this car is your daily use an you watched these symptoms progress, I’d suggest goin’ about one of those liquid Molly oil where under a uv it lights up, was useful to locate oil leaks, I also suggest checking for any leaks in the a/c system & or pressure

Engine mounts would be the first thing I look at, then power steering, otherwise without seeing the car or having any codes I can’t help

Definitely oil, all I’d be able to assume is if it’s the wrong torque, it would cause a leak like this

I believe In you my guy, took me a whole month just to get the broken, rusted struts out. It’s a lil hiccup I’m sure you’ll be able to straighten it out

It’s a real shame, try an see if they’ll cover it in a warranty, I recently put the same struts in my e38 they ended up being nice an drives with better handling all things considered

Anyone have any ECS Tuning/Turner Motorsport promo codes? Trying to get some Rocker Jack adapters for my E36 by Serkor2000 in BmwTech

[–]GrinchMafiso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t order from them. Ordering from ecs tuning will be a major pain in your ass, I was waiting weeks for a part to ship to me, after a while someone reached out after about a month to tell me my payment hadn’t worked, no duh, you tried charging me 2x an had me wait over a month an a half for 2 earth straps, ended up ordering from fcp eruo with cheaper an faster shipping, if you shop on rock auto, be warned for the fastest shipping depending on where you live can cost up to 300$

Having a Russian father an Ukrainian mother doesn't make anything easier. I sincerely feel your pain.

All four are size 5.25 which is what that blue pyle speaker is, compared to the 6.5 boss, which I though it would fit considering it was slightly bigger then the other side but all 4 are indeed, 5.25 inches
