1994 BMW 318 - Page 2 Questions & Answers
I have a bmw 316ti
with any BMW they have their problems, one is the central locking/immobilizer, the central locking is linked into the immobilizer and vice versa, the immobilizer takes it signal to disarm from the central locking and the ignition key ring. (chip in the key) if one of these starts to play up it has loads of consequences this being one of them. they all need to work together for the system to work properly. you would need to read the alarm and immobiliser codes using an ob2 tool that can detect them, and find the fault some problems it can be the drivers door sensor in the lock this is the main door as its drivers side and it controls all other doors on the central locking. if the switch is worn in any of it movements the system will not know the door has been opened, this does not work on the interior light as that is a switch in the door frame. the door lock is lock unlock and deadlock with key with remote fob its also arm disarm alarm and immobiliser. i have seen in some models there is a sensor auto lock so when you walk away with the key the doors lock automatically all lease parts work together. any one having a problem can cause no signal to be sent to the others in the system to start engine .
How to open hood BMW 328i 1997 cable snapped
Maybe you could check with three panel beaters on if the hood can be bent back or maybe they can spot weld onto the hood and pull it out. Like get three quotes and if you are paying for it like not insurance job or not let the panel beaters know when asking for a quote..
I changed the crankshaft of my m43 with a crankshaft bearing some gears or drives, thereafter my piston height exceeds the engine block by almost a millimeter. What are the potential dangers?
the problem possibly is that the crankshaft you used may be a longer stroke that the one you removed ( you state that you change the crankshaft of the m43 with another crankshaft)
Assuming that the engine is not a diesel engine
problems that you will have besides the extra height, is an over the top compression pressure which will require top octane fuel or special fuel
one way to lower the compression pressure is to fit pistons with a hollow in the crown ( low compression pistons)
go to a speed shop and you may be able to get an over thick head gasket to stop the piston from hitting the head and to lower the compression pressure as well
look around and talk with speed shops and engine reconditioning engineering shops as there are different sized pistons that have the gudgeon pin set closer to the crown which will make the crown flush with the block
I think that you will have to research the bore and stroke of your engine and the engine that the crank came out of to see if there is a difference and work on that angle if such a difference exists
of course if it is a diesel, it is probably right it you use the correct head gasket as diesel engines have very little clearance between the head and the piston crown
