Well, I've located the power leak, and found out that door must be locked from the outside in order to be unlocked from there...

Good deal!

Did some pics today... bimmer & friends Q

Not mine, but driving it for 2 more weeks. Citroen Saxo 98'

Picture is illustrative.

I was doing my driving license lessons in this... Quite bad memories on that car.

not about noise, surprisingly.
bitched about the fumes entering her house instead lol

I hope you expressed your disagreement using drift as your medium.

I think I found your car on YouTube before you changed the wheels.

i recieved all the stuff for my new bimmer,now i just have to get em painted,put the new tires on,fit the suspension kit and im done. pics in few weeks

i like my car.

because u can do a burnout with it?
i can do that with a lada

Hell, if there's sand on the road I can do that with my bicycle.

U guys don't understand that in Aus, doing burnouts and donuts makes you da man, you don't need to be able to drive properly. Just take some meth and go with the flow

It's actually a requirement in the driving test...

>s14 does skid, everyone praises
>supra does skid, everyone boos

lol.

It's not the supra, it's you. Sorry.

You show your love of your car by ruining the brakes and boiling the engine? Why the **** not.

lol.

show me one post that praised the s14 burnout drama queen

The S14 just looks 100x better, not the burnout

Brakes hardly need to be pressed once the skid has actually started..doesnt take much to hold the car still

and boiling the engine? lol it was a 30 second skid..not 3 minutes on a burnout pad.

Have you ever wondered what happens when you believe a salesman when they say "All the fluids have been changed"? Well, this is what happens. They replaced the gear oil with a whole lot of air. Thank you Purifoy Chevrolet.

Note the discoloration on the outer bearing casing. Yeah, they get hot without any lube. Needless to say, that bearing does not spin anymore.
Result is a two piece input shaft. Amazingly the rest of the trans is perfect. The damn thing weighs more than a VW engine though.

I did a complete service within a week of buying the car, only thing i didn't change was the diff oil, why would you believe a salesman anyway?

Didn't transmission make loud noise while unlubricated?

Other than a slight whine in 5th, no. They normally do though.

I only had the truck for a few days and had not had the time to look it over before my sister took it for a 600 mile trip and it did not make the last 300. Ended up costing $2000 to put another trans in. That transmission is noisy, pain in the a** to get into gear, and grinds depending on its mood. 4 years later and I am tired of the POS that's in it and want the nice original back in it.
