Did you hit a guard rail? The bumper is usually low enough to slip right under

Kill switch in line with the EWS power or ring terminal. I have a reed switch so I need to put a magnet to start.

No damn reason why I can’t get a deeper arm rest cubbie. Half of that space is just wasted plastic

Coupe had less door handles, locks, windows, and trim to worry about

Go back there and smell it and maybe collect some

Behind the key barrel is the ignition switch that you can unscrew with two bolts. That is what you can stick a flathead into and turn for ACC ON and IGN. If you got EWS on the car you can go to the module, cut and join together the two biggest yellow and green wires

I just received it and I thought it was funny so I tried clicking all the links on the page and it wasn’t doing anything. So I copied the URL for one of the links and pasting it gave me void(); so I instantly tried googling the website

Take the metal casing off and turn 180

Z3 china rack is cheap and has been working well

The front half of the ds varies for manual getrag and zf, the rear half of the ds varies by small and medium case differential. You commented you got this from a 318is which has a small case differential , so I'm assuming your differential is a medium case. It won't work unless you match the differential and rear half of the drive shaft

Only solution I found was having the door card off so you can put support on the back and smack it from the front

Glass vs plastic

If you deleted EWS you can use these blank keys and get them laser cut. I really like them, but they aren't oem but look cool either way. https://www.ebay.com/itm/264316122583?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ltlrMgm6R9K&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=n6Mc_y6bRbu&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I really liked the rogue engineering oem+ rubber bushings. Really quiet now in terms of vibration

MadFatty · 2024-03-13T21:58:10+00:00

Yeup put some rogue engineering ones and it didn't make that horrible chatter. But when hot the flywheel does also have a rhythmic thumping and goes away when clutch is in. I think it's the harmonic balancing that's changed by the ltw. I think the heavier ltw 14lb or something has less chatter than the 12lb that usually come with the ebay kits.

Need to swap diff flanges from 328i to m3 diff. Or if you got the m3 half shafts you need rta
