My oil cooler has collapsed from the car and pulled the pipework across the fan and sliced them open, I`m looking for an oil cooper and the pipework to fit an n reg e36 325tds engine, mot is looming and need it fixed :(

thery're 17`s more or less brand new tyres on all 4 allys, momo`s genuine with made in italy raised up on the alloys will take some better photos tomorrow in the day light

Yeah gav i`ll have a look at them after my dinner and get you the sizes

Well it looks like my oil cooler has come away and cracked hence all the oil shooting up into the engine so nothing at all serious thank god, although now the idea has been put in my head I am very tempted to either sell the car or break it for the leather interior and alloys and fund a e30 going to see what interest i have in it first

no no as soon as seen it i left the car on the drive its not getting driven until after i`ve had it up on the ramps to find out where its coming from i dont want a cracked engine aswell

from what i can see it looks like a clip has just given up and oil has went everywhere, temps were fine and everything else seems ok but wont know for definite until tomorrow, maybe its the excuse i need to get myself another e30 :D every cloud and all that jazz

Glad its nothing major i wish i could say the same for mine, noticed oil on the floor opened the bonnet and oil everywhere! oil cooler is hanging on by the hoses but hoses are still attached? going to get it up on the ramps tomorrow and find out where its from and its engine oil ooeeerrr, if its serious i can see this being broke with the alloys and leather going on fleabay

325 :lol:

Could be snapped spring, worn bushes, although a sneaky problem could be a bust damper thats leaked all its lube out and the muck off the road is hiding it

Nice i think the E36s look really agressive with the right stance, cant wait to see some pics :) what needs doing to yours?

If your even thinking of mpg then a 3.0 isnt for you, If you can afford the insurance at that age go for it but dont waste your money, I`d rather be able to go out once in awhile and not think well i`d like to go out and see my friends but my entire pay is going on car insurance and fuel (damn that supra)

Mine has 272k on the clock and still pulls like a train and shows up any "young`in" that trys to take it, parts wise i wouldnt worry about, the cars are rwd and alot have been sent to that scrapyard in the sky thanks to asfor-mentioned "young`in" thinking they can drift after watching fast and furious so parts are a plenty, model wise depends on what you like the look of, mines a E36 325 tds but i`ll always want an E30

Newcastle, Please dont say i`m the only one?

Well out of £20 i got 120 miles out of my 325tds and i planted my foot alot aswell so i dont think thats bad :D

You should never worry about milage on a bm if my car is anything to go by, Its n reg with 271k on the clock and still pulls like a train :D Bmw for the win!
