  1. I will do an update if I find anything
  2. Thanks Dave I will recheck my realoem and the classics section just in case I missed something
  3. Does anyone have one of these Hella 5aa 003 525-00 Alarms fitted to their car or know anything about how they work? I have looked on Wiki and checked a couple of manuals but I cannot find any information on them or what they do? If anyone has one and any advice on how to check it I would be most grateful
  4. Hi there just thought I would give you an update regarding my ecu. I sent it to ecutesting as recommended unfortunately they couldn't do anything with it as they said that that they didn't have equipement or tech old enough to test it with lol. They were very apologetic and sent it back to me. Additionally they didn't know of anywhere else I could send it to for testing but of the checks they did do they didn't find anything untoward. So it looks like I will have to find somewhere else or risk buying a second part either way a little bit frustrating.
  5. Thanks Dave I think they are based in Heanor was looking at them yesterday but I will check your link all the same
  6. Can anyone recommend somewhere for testing and fixing an ECU around the Warminster Trowbridge area please Don't mind posting if needed
  7. Thanks Dave that goes along with what I thought
  8. Any luck in getting information from your notes?
  9. Hi Dave thanks for the reply I am referring to the the Overhead Check Panel that sits up by the rear view mirror
  10. Just checking I'm getting emails lol
  11. Hi everyone Just a quick question regarding the overhead console computer as I cannot remember whether it should be All on or off prior to starting the car? I have fitted a new battery and I'm having blond moment lol (no offence intended). Currently prior to cranking the car over it is all lit up and I'm sure it wasn't like that beforehand and then mostly goes out during cranking. Not sure if I have to reset something so any help and advice would be most welcome.
  12. I will keep that in mind especially if I get a good discount lol!!
  13. Just found the absorber its called a damper similar to a fuel pressure regulator https://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/SuperCat/BE30/BMW_BE30_FULFUL_pg2_fuel-pressure-dampers.htm BMW 3-Series E30 (1983-1991) - Fuel & Intake - Fuel System - Fuel Pressure Regulators Haven't found the other part yet and its not in their listings
  14. Hi Dave, Thanks for your reply and recommendation. I think I have tried Pelican Parts but I will try again just to be sure. My external pump is knackered and I do have a new one but I don't want to fit it until I know what the other parts do in case they need replacing as well. I think you are right about the Absorber and it makes sense even if we don't understand their terminology. In 1986 I had a V8 Rover Vitesse but loved the cossies too!!!
  15. I used the RealOem site again using my vin and I still get the same result Part 14 listed as a an Absorber which doesn't sound right? and Part 20 is listed as a hose? so any other suggestions would be welcome. Here is the page n question https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=BA31-EUR-04-1986-E30-BMW-320i&diagId=16_0171
