    Engine oil series 3

    i use 20w50 mineral, i recently switched to 15w40; nothing to report as of yet. Funcitons the same. just DOUBLE TRIPLE CHECK that its mineral, and not some half synthetic stuff; or debris from the inside of ur engine might loosen itsself and go on a little trip around ur engine.

    2.5NA leaking from bolts

    Dry as in, yea; only residual oil from the sides of the dipstick tube. I feel like i am burning some oil too. Been driving lots of highway. Cables are an earth strap indeed, the other i would have no clue. Just a filler hole of some sorts it seems

    Series 3 Gearshift Jammed in Neutral on S3

    Judging from the killermat, check if you have plenty of clearance under the pedal. Maybe you fitted some and now you cannot fully engage it properly? Still wouldnt explain the weird "lockup". with aftermarket selectors, the O-ring at the end of the selector is different and can therefore...

    Series 3 Losing clutch pressure over time

    Hi thanks for above images, I managed to order everything I (Thought) I needed. I have a LHD, so I had to remove a fair bit of stuff before I could pull the clutch pedal assembly and remove the lines. However, I ran into a problem. My clutch hydraulics are assembled differently than the above...

    Series 3 Losing clutch pressure over time

    Hi, I recently started losing clutch pressure; now to the point where I have 0 pressure and cannot use the clutch. I suspect there is fluid running down the pedal, but since it has rained heavily here; i cannot distinguish it properly from plain water. It carries so much gunk however, that I...

However naturally I want to fix it! I have +/-5 years of experience with mostly American cars. Though I can...
