What did you do to your E28 today?

[Karl Grau]

I moved it to the service area so I could throw this stuff at a transmission leak. Unfortunately, by the time I got it there, it was too hot for car work.

[e28Sean]

She was a dirty dirty girl. ...so I took 'er out and hosed 'er off.

[nik77356]

Raced it last weekend.

[bkbimmer]

Seriously contemplated parting it out again. I wish I was more mentally and financially sound.

[2 5's and a 7]

These days it takes the second to be the first..............

Not if you were born mental.

[foamy]

i hooked the battery up and moved it to get my uncles 67 mustang out of the garage for the first time in 6 years.

[BonitaBeast]

I installed a "new" old brake master cylinder. I hope it takes care of my right front brake locking up after a few miles of driving


Also installing these bad boys I acquired from a board member. Doing a bit of welding and patching up but we should be good to go soon

[Acid House]

I made it run, for the first time in what might have been awhile

[1st 5er]

DB got his new safety inspection sticker.

[Gustav129]

It was warm for a change today, so I washed it, removing most of a build up of grime (black algea slime) that the PO let grow while being parked under a tree. It started raining as I finished scrubbing the passenger doors. I laughed, saying "It never fails".

[bkbimmer]

Removed the left rear window motor since it decided not to go back up today... After I removed it I realized I had sold all of the good ones I had, now I'm pulling this one apart to see if I can get it to work again.

Probably going to order all new ones next week.

Taillight gaskets on Gerda. Flipped the left one over and out came about a 1/2 pint of water. All sealed up now.

After clearing the driveway for the 3rd time in a week, I drove the super e to visit the Grandbabies. Slushy on the way , glazed on the way home. On decent all seasons, the old girl is no problem. The heater blower needs a refresh. Once the weather breaks. I'm satisfied with my right tie rod-ectomy, The steering wheel is centered and the handling isn't squirrelly or scuffing the skins I put on until I had the front end aligned. I think I managed to preserve the alignment by closely matching the length of the original,and transferring the dimension to best used tie rod assembly I had in my parts stash.

[KrautnotRice]

Ordered a new in-tank fuel pump to get her back on the road (and going over 40 mph).
Should arrive Friday. Hopefully I'll be cruising on the weekend...

[1st 5er]

Snob got a bath.

[Acid House]

Avoided combustion again by noticing a leak from the fuel pump/filter line while doing the rear brake pads.

At this rate I'll be pre-emotive lay replacing the rest of the lines, since the ones I have replaced are on the verge of exploding into bits anyway

[tig]

Vlad: Pulled rear brakes and put caliper grease on to quell squeal when cold. Removed adjustable FPR and put in stock 3.0bar unit. Drove like hell and its fine. That IE AFPR just made me nervous.

Maytag: Boxed up BBS RZs to ship to refinished. Swapped in a new-used power antenna unit as old one finally croaked. Spent some time cleaning parts for the 3.25lsd.

[Das_Prachtstrasse]

Washed it. Drove it around the block for the first time in 2 months afterwards.Not sure why I don't drive it more often, it really puts a grin on my dial. Also trial fit the throttle adaptor plates, going to need to die grind the TBs a bit to port match them perfectly, may start on that soon. Engagement party/wedding planning is sucking the wallet dry at the moment so the engine build hasn't progressed past parts collection yet although I'm hoping to send the head off soon.

Finally took a look at and removed my power steering filter. It seems it was clogged and my pump has been screaming for a few days. At first I thought it was a hose issue but it was even simpler. Now no more noise but new hoses and filter are in order. Nothing like driveway repairs in the snow

[e28Sean]

Didn't do anything, but, this arrived in the mail today:

[davintosh]

Drove it home. My kid drove it to work a week or so ago and it died about a block from the shop, and wouldn't start again. I thought it was either the fuel pump -- it had been making some noise last summer -- or the fuel pump relay. I got new FP & main relays last week, so we drove out tonight, popped in the new relays, and it fired right up. Gotta love it when a plan comes together.

[lilpoindexter]

Changed the axle boots. The old ones were kind of crusty. Not a terrible job...the most frustrating thing for me was getting the boots on to the shaft without the lip folding over.

[dhdrums]

Just got back from a 12 hour round trip of driving my e28 to pick up some new style 5's for it. Even with the gas I burned this was still a great deal. Probably wasn't the best way to transport them though, but it worked.

[BonitaBeast]

Replaced the tired hood liner



With the new updated version

[LarryM]

Replaced the "lock strips" around the windshield and rear window; mine were browned from sun exposure and age. Until a few weeks ago I assumed these were aluminum pieces and would be both somewhat expensive and difficult to replace; I didn't know they were just plastic and readily available. It was amazingly easy and took less than 2 hours; one of those jobs you keep putting off but after you're done you wish you had done it much sooner. It's one of those little details that makes a big difference in the car's overall appearance.

Now I'm in the process of removing the old tint on my rear window; the goofball who installed it left a palm print in the adhesive that's always bothered me.

[bkbimmer]

Filled it with fuel and went cruising with the windows down.

[dsmith]

Blucifer started this morning at -8 degrees with 20w50 dino. Pretty stoked about that.

[1st 5er]

Washed Snob again, damn birds.

[foolish]

Got some style 9's for the old girl for summer use.
