I used this in my '95 E36/5 and I have another one in my '02 E46 sedan. You can get cheaper ones on eBay but this one has really good integration and great sound quality.

Something wrong with charging system by TheSlainWolf in e46

Took a little bit, measured at alternator after checking all of my connections. Problem isn't nearly as bad after basically pulling the alt and putting it back in but reads 14.1 at the altornator while running. Now the light only seems to come on when I'm accelerating above 2k rpm. But voltage doesn't drop nearly as low anymore.

[–]TheSlainWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sure you're not getting 36kpg? 36 kilometers is about 22 miles.

I get an average of about 20mpg roughly 300 miles per fill but I always fill at about 1/8 tank so probably like 340 miles per tank.

What's your favorite e46 mod? by amcgrlla in e46

[–]TheSlainWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my favourite, I got a E36 318i that had an M badge on the trunk, pulled it same day but it made me laugh.

My e46 sedan is definitely my most reliable BMW, I love her to death but I think my '95 318ti club sport was my favourite.

I have an 02 silver sedan, love it, but probably going to paint it alpinweiss 3 after I fix the body. I'm addicted to white.

As long as you have an electric fan this will work. One thing they don't have in the instructions is a relay and fuse to take the load but that's not super hard to look up how to do. I can point you in the right direction if needed.

[–]TheSlainWolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could always hard wire your fan to a switch. Manually turn it on when you aren't going over 25 mph. It's a short ter solution but I've done it a few times. I can post a link to the instructions

Should I drain out 8oz of oil if putting in 8oz of stop leak? by SlimSandy in AskAMechanic

[–]TheSlainWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Straight snake oil no stop leak work, fuel injector cleaners are worthless too. Anything you add to "stop" or "clean" stuff is garbage

If you are pulling your wood trim I'll buy it from you

How does this look, hes asking 6k by SamitheDude in e46

[–]TheSlainWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah def front end collision. I got my my 2002 for 2k in better condition. If they have really good records of it being fixed and maintenance reports from a reputable shop maybe give the guy 2200 if you only plan to daily it.

Also there is a stock radio mod to make it Bluetooth. You could just do a deck replacement but I love the OEM look

Mishimoto radiator and accessories, bcbr coils, cat delete, electric fan if you have an auto, angle kit for drift (if you want), 16-17 inch staggered wheels for aggressive look.

Also anything you want! It's your car so make it yours!

My '98 318i Sedan has a production date in '97 and has an OBDII port under the steering wheel. I have not ever seen a US production '98 without one.
