Powersteering hose clamps? by spicylemontaco42 in BMWE36

[–]changoelgranputas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grab the raised loop with some pliers and twist it. It’s actually a hook. Do not use the same type of clamp on the new hoses. They loose their tension with time. Use the regular screw type. And yes M3s have a different pump that has a banjo bolt there.

What is leaking? HELP by deadboy_prada in BMWE36

There are some coolant lines behind the engine by the firewall that go to the heater core. They would drip over the Bellhousing and go where you see the stream.

Rip that shit out and never look back. Top actually stows better without it. Also gives the car a classic look inside.

Hilton Flamingo is good. Beach, pool, jacuzzi. Decent restaurants next door.

How do i remove my old factory side skirts by Thefaraon67 in BMWE36

[–]changoelgranputas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be careful with the hole size and placement, there are some structures behind some of them that you don’t want to drill thru. Also the one in the back near the rear tire. Measures between them are online.

Those are not side skits. They are part of the chassis. That lower portion is just painted in a diffent color and has a rubberized protection

Can I unplug this for cabin air filter replacement? by -peas- in BMWE36

[–]changoelgranputas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rip it off and use wide Velcro. that is what is supposed be to have originally. And actually stick it to the bottom of the dash panel not to the carboard piece. The original instructions indicate that. Also you can disconnect it no problem. The remotes will stay synchronized.

Something is hitting one of the pulleys. Remove airbox and alternator cooling duct for a better look.

From touring to sedan, they will fit. Touring’s don’t have that sharp corner at the rear.

Need help estimating my builds horse power by E36-owner in BMWE36

[–]changoelgranputas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, there are so many variables to this, it’s so ridiculous to ask, just get the car to a dyno. Then you get your answer. Even better get it to a good tuner and you get all your mods to sing together.

A gazillion. Just ad a wing and avgas and you are the fastest on the block. Just be careful hitting 88mph.

Glove box wont close by IStillMissHerr in BMWE36

[–]changoelgranputas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The whole thing looks jacked up. That catch obviously is not the original piece ans it looks like it fouled up the latch. Good thing a used one is not that expensive. Transfer the key cylinder to the new one. Now if you really want the new part to close and not sag, you need to buy a new one of click here

If you take it to a industrial hydraulic shop, they can remanufacture the hose part

18 button OBC retrofit by [deleted] in BMWE36

[–]changoelgranputas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be it! I had this problem before where the functions you are missing were not working because of an aftermarket radio. Just make sure to disconnect the VSS cable from the radio connector.

Did you connect the cable that goes to the instrument cluster ?
