I just joined this forum last Dec. 2005. And it has been a big help to me ever since I purchased my 95' 525i in Oct. 2005. Since then the only major problem I have encountered was the radiator giving way. That has since been replaced and thanks to a detailed description of how to replace it I was able to do it in under 2.5 hours. I also had to replace the driver's side low beam headlight light due to a stone being thrown up by a truck on the local freeway.

Next on the to do list is to fix the passnger side headrest which does not seem to rise up (Got the instructions on how to fix that.) And then tackle the automatic height adjustment of the seatbelts( Got some info on that too.). After that it is off to the upholstery shop to see what they can do with the rear passenger door panel which seem to be delaminating.

Attached are the latest pics of of my baby with the new euro trim installed. Still saving up for a set Of Eibachs springs and Bilstein Tourings, Koni's or KYB's.I still have to do some research on what setup to install. Not really into the harsh side of the suspension setup since this is my daily driver and I have to take my 15 month old son on trips every now and again.

Getting a bit too long... sorry about that kind of got carried away with all this peace and quite for once.:D

I had the Bilsteins a few times and am loving the Sachs shocks, if you have lowering springs youll have to cut the center of the front bumpstops and glue them back together.

If there is any car style-32s look best on, it's the E34 by a longshot.

Perhaps you could help me out with that? If you've collected any information it would be most appreciated if you shared :)

Thanks,

EDIT: Clean, black, E34. What more could you ask for (besides an M30 under the hood :D )?

Thank you all for the compliments!!!

632 Regal - Thanks for the advise. Do you have the Sachs kit? How do they ride?

Incantation - If you are refering to the Euro plates, they are original export plates from Munich...home of BMW. Just a little little touch of individualism.

ILoveMPower - I found all this info here using the "Search" mode. I just typed in "headrest not working and seatbelt height adjustment not working". You should be able to follow some links to the solutions.
