View Full Version : Is your E36 running quiet?

Sort of random but whenever my car is running at low RPM (especially with my old 5 speed 328) friends or whoever is with me occasionally ask if my car is on. I find it a little bit hilarious how that many people ask, so I'm wondering if anyone else gets this question too?..

My 325 has high flow cats and my 318 has a cheap exhaust and leaky PS pump thanks to the PO... so in a word; no. :( lol

Mine is quiet after it warms up for a bit. But on cold mornings it sounds pretty rough..
