Hi all, I’m in the process of building an e46 track car and need to purchase a new propshaft for a 330d gearbox to 330 differential. However, I’m having a hard time finding a manual propshaft. I have seen that there is plenty of propshaft from 330 auto boxes. Can I use a propshaft from an...

This issue just started tonight with my car as I was driving home on the freeway. I tried to accelerate to merge on the freeway, and as I was accelerating, the car would violently shake in the rear, almost the same feeling as like a burnout or a launch. But, my tires were not spinning, obviously...

So I own a 1999 328i and I have a 1600watt sound system in it, and I have always had the problem of my car dropping rpm once or twice a minute when it's cold (not bad just about a 100-200 rpm dip for a split second) but now when I went to start my car one morning it started up just fine but...

I am going to be converting my E46 320ia (M54) to a manual, and my friend has a 318i hes selling for cheap, and from what I understand all the 5 speed transmissions are the same? But I'll need a M54 flywheel and clutch? Is this correct?

Hi, My wagon (which is an automatic) becomes very rough feeling if I travel at speed but if I pop it down a gear in sport manual mode it increases the revs and the shuddering sensation disappears. It feels like my manual car does when I change gears too early but it's an auto and it drives fine...

Hello fanatics! I need to test my EDS4(torque converter clutch solenoid) and EDS1(main pressure solenoid) solenoids. What is a good way/are the best ways to do so? Is solenoid failure common? I believe my tranny is not keeping pressure, and jerks with the TC clutch under slow acceleration. It...

Hello, i have been trying to solve this issue for a few days, reading the Bentley manual and scowering through forums but have not crashed in to a solution. The car in question, a 2000 330xi wagon, automatic, has been sitting for five weeks, started every second week. Now, at the latest start...
