I seem to have a leak on the drivers side of the windscreen on the upright ( A Pillar they call it ? ), is this an Autoglass job or something I can fix myself maybe ?

Cheers

Mark.

Probably best to give it to autoglass, theres a new style surround they are fitting for the E34 new does away with the split in the middle at the top, but it needs the screen out to fit. should cure all ills.

On another note, did you notice a difference when you fitted your throttle body and where did you get it, if you PM me cheers.

Ok thanks

The big bore TB seems to allow the car to pull harder in the higher revs, after about 4k to redline seems stronger. K+N has proved time again to be a complete waste of space however, my suspicions being that a new BMW filter is actualy better than any K+N.
