  • Replacing the washer nozzles on the E31 8-Series sounds quite easy - well it isn't, I'll tell you that for nothing. I'll go through the complete procedure and you can find out why it isn't as easy as it first looks!

    A large syringe that I use to fill my diff and transmission I filled with CRL (Calcium Rust Lime) and water, 50/50, and pushed it through the nozzles. Left it and came back an hour later and all the nozzles were clean on my E38. So I did the same on my E39 and then my Mercedes CLK55 cabrio. Cleaned them out wonderfully.

    Hi @Timm's BMW Repairs and Information! You're videos are awesome and you're a true inspiration! I'm trying to replace a new Fuel Tank Vent Valve 16-13-1-182-761 for 1996 BMW 850ci V12 that's NLA. Can you get one of White 3 ports? If not, can I use something else as a Substitute? I'm open to all suggestions, please.

    Hey Timm, beautiful 8 series! Love the videos. Very informative and helpful. Is there anywhere that you have the specs of your car...namely the front/rear wheel size and offset? Suspension? Etc thanks!

    • @TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation
      @TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation  Рік тому

      Thanks! The alloys are Rondell 58's which are staggered, 11J rears and 9J fronts, offset 13mm, I use spacers on the front to push the alloys out a bit. Suspension is the standard E31 sports suspension. Have a look online for: www.meeknet.co.uk/e31/timms_bmw_wheel_and_tyre_page.htm

    Hello Timm Did not know where else to post this question. I cannot for some reason fill the headlight washer tank in the boot of my E31. I try and soon I have water leaking from underneath the car in the region of the plastic piping to the tank which is under the car. Is this a common problem and how do I fix it so that I can fill this tank. Appreciate your input as always

      Not common, but does happen - but - check the pump in the boot, they often crack and leak fluid through the bottom of the car - more info here: www.meeknet.co.uk/e31/Washer_System_Repair.htm

    I'm in Pensacola Florida and I have a problem and need your help. I own a 1996 BMW 740iL that was purchased from the original owner with 75K miles on it, it now has 85K since I brought it. The car drives and runs great, I had some work performed to fix the front end simmer and other minor things to include sending the dash off for pixel replacement. I love this BMW. The problem is that I don't drive it daily, only around 4-5 times a month. I started it up and pulled it into the garage after it sit outside for a few days. I came out in the garage two days later and it won't start. I had the battery checked and fully charged and it will won't turn over. The lights in the dash come on, but if I put the turn signals on, they don't flash inside the car but do outside. I read about the key as a possibility but the key opens and locks the doors fine. It doesn't click like the starter is trying to turn, it just does nothing. I need advice before taking it to BMW for who knows how much. Any advice you can give would be great, Thanks

      Hello William, that sounds like a loss of synchronisation between the key transponder and the DME - simply fixed with diagnostics. Go on over to Bimmerforums.com and post the same question there, or search for synchronisation- usually an easy fix
