BMW 318 E36

[mac276]

Heres a couple of my new motor.

I bought it cheap with a faulty gearbox and starter motor.

Also bought this 316 E36 compact with a blown headgasket as a donor car to repair the 318.

The compact has a factory fitted parking sensor kit fitted to the rear bumper so im planning on putting it onto the 318.

Looks good, be a nice car once you sorted the gearbox and starter motor im sure! Ive got a grey one, wish mine had black leather though!

Nice work. B) i have just replaced the grey "dead cow" interior in my coupe with a black one as it was holed.

Keep us up to speed with your progress.

Hi Keith

Welcome to the Forum

Limp mode can be caused by a number of issues you need the codes read to be sure. How was it driving before the issue? How many miles has it done? What service history ? When was the gearbox last serviced ?

You need either someone with BMW specific software or a Garage with Autologic
