Well, just picked her up from the garage and am now £160 lighter. The guys did a full BMW service1 spec job, and now she purrs rather than rattles!!!
Just a shame it was p*ssing down on the way home so I couldn't really open her up...
OK, so that's the good stuff. Downside is I now gotta replace a missing bracket off the exhaust (christ knows where that went?!), put some new breather pipes on the engine, sort out a slight oil leak from timing chest and fix the leaky screen washer.....
Oh and the guys recommend that I get the rear axle bushes changed to calm the back end down a bit - the quoted another £160 to do this...
However, top mark to the guys at Auto Service in Hitchin for making her sweet again.
This car never fails to put a smile on my face...
These dudes really know their e30's (there were several other spanking ones they owned lined up outside), so if you gotta e30 problem, they come highly recommended....give them a call on 01462 459459.
