Re: B3 3.2 correct oil grade?

I suggest to run 5W40, the reason for this is the low temperature protection and the fact its thin, but not too thin so it doesn't burn. Run it in all mine and never lost any vs what i put in.

Re: Sreten from M539 Restos has bought a B7!

He just managed to get most of the engine apart, i think he will manage it without removing the engine, fingers crossed it fixes the issue!

Re: Wheel damage!!!

I did this, but then all i got from others (not forum members) was "your cars a fake, your wheels are wrong" so i chose to go back to the originals and drive more carefully!

Re: East Mids Monthly Meeting

Is this on tonight? I may be able to call in on my way home

Edit, thanks to a crash on the M11, i would have passed well past the time everyone else would have gone.

Will there be one in December?

Is Steve mentioned in this video on the register? A high mileage user like Steve should be here telling us of the ownership experience! 210k miles, wow!

Re: Confused by Cleaning

From your technique, easiest thing to change is the way you apply the wax, don't apply it in a circular manner, apply in a liner manner, like the way the wind flows over the car.

Re: East Mids Monthly Meeting

Hi John,

I'm moving to the area mid-June, so i'd be happy to meet and give my cars a run at a meet in the future. I'm just off Junction 25.

Re: E36 B3.0 1994 convertible in alpina blue

Just for info, i also have one of the 6 B3 3.0L Cab's, although mine was rebodied for some reason, yet to be fathom'd!
Will be taking on the project a bit more seriously this summer hopefully.

Did this one ever sell?
