I will not answer any more.......

[shogun]

if there are incomplete profiles, like " E34" and that is all, , no year, no month of production, no info on engine and you know what is required to answer CORRECT and in DETAIL.
Even the month and year of production is absolutely required to answer in detail to most of the questions.
Is there EML, ABS, mileage etc etc.

[Blitzkrieg Bob]

there's alot of guys who ask for vague help, but no details, imagine these guys at the parts shop.

[winfred]

sounds like my customers, "i need a part for my mercedes" what flavor of mercedes? "mercedes benz" uhhhh... what year model? "86" what model? "benz" (veins popping out in forhead now) dude in 1986 there was about a dozen ****ing models! go look at the back of the car and tell me the number, foot steps and a door squeak..............door squeek and foot steps "300" ahhhhhhhhhh 300e 300d 300sdl 300sel 300te 300td


i've forgen how many times i've had this exact conversation and had to tell them to go look at the back of the damn car and tell me the numbers (a couple times in some cases) even want to develope a low opinion of the public? sell stuff

[Turbo Ready]

Winfred, you should sell BMW parts only less model numbers than Benz

On the other hand I have seen some BMW turds who may come back with their license plate numbers if you sent him at the back of the car to get the numbers.

I have heard a guys reply to the car's model as "2 door"

[liquidtiger720]

Shogun. Please advise me as to what other info is needed - in sig.

[winfred]

got a buddy that worked at a mitsubishi dealer parts counter and one day after telling the douchebag to go look at the back of the car because he said it's a mitsubishi when asked what model, said douche comes back and said "it's a levis mitsubishi", which was the name on the dealer sticker on the trunk

this is why I include important data in my sig,.

[misfortune]

this is why I include important data in my sig,.

I turned sigs off. It takes up a lot of space on the page. Page loads faster, minus the images of everyone's car. If its that special, make a pic post. O/W no sigs for me

[shogun]

Maybe the registration form has to be changed. People not willing to give info cannot register. Just that simple.


For example the German E34 Forum has a form where one even has to fill in the engine type more in detail. One can click it or if not known, they will revert you to info on their page to find out;
Example:
