puck you...

you're joking right???

under the factory jacking points (the circles on the rocker panels) are rubber pucks, which are the points to place the arms of a lift/jack stands...if there's no rubber there, then your pucks have fallen out (common occurrence on the e36)...

supposed to look like this:

ok so I signed up for a military 3 day riding course so I can get a motorcycle licsense. Even though I havent bought a bike yet this is still offered to me. The only thing I need to bring is PPE.. Which brings me to this thread. Does anyone have a helmet I can use for three days in January. 25th, 26th, 27th. If anyone does I would greatly appreciate it and return it promptly on the 27th.

Thanks

I've got two different helmets you can borrow, as long as you can fit a medium arai. one of them has smaller cheekpads in it to so there is some custom fit-ability! i have a large-ish head but medium is my fit with arai.

Well, first day back in Texas and my lil bro nails a dog and breaks his front left corner lens and left foglight. Anyone have a extra left front turn signal for a e36 sedan. I have a pair of M fogs I am sendin him when I get back to the island. So if anyone has an extra one, lemme know. West Texas is horrible when it comes to parts, no strong bimmer community like ours on the island.

Mele Kalikimaka!

Anyone know where I can get an E36 undertray? Mine is falling off and looks like its going to take the front spoiler with it

For that matter, what is the part that the undertray connects to inside the wheel well called? That plastic part has been ripped through the bolts on the driver's side

The undertray probably connects to the fender liner. You could probably pull your undertray and repair it with some high temp epoxy and some ABS plastic. If you want another tray, I believe there is a guy on Craigslist that is parting an E36 M3.

**Slateman** · 02-12-2010, 12:44 AM

It looks like what I need to replace is the fender liner.

anaybody wanna help me diagnose my e39? Its decelerating extremely fast while coasting (goes from 20 to like 5 fast, feels like im braking). Someone has suggested it might be wheel bearings. It doesnt do it while coasting on neutral so im afraid of it being something more serious

my car knowledge is ZILCH so im looking to learn

Drive around for @ 20 minutes, then feel all your wheels. They should all be the same temp. If one is noticeably warmer/hot to the touch, a brake caliper could be dragging.

**newone757** · 03-06-2010, 01:41 AM

^hmm yep Ill try that. Thanks
