Replacing BMW E36 Spark Plugs . . . DIY!

Replacing BMW E36 Spark Plugs . . . DIY!

 

I have found this DIY (Do It Yourself) procedure that will help you to replace your BMW E36 spark plug. I know that you may think this task is very easy. But I think this article has some great information about spark plugs and about the oil that may be leaking inside your engine. So, read it carefully, I’m sure you’ll find it interesting.

Concerning the type of spark plugs that you should use for your E36, I prefer going with the Bosch spark plugs for my BMW, but again it’s up to you to decide which type to use. NGK is another good alternative, but I still prefer Bosch over it.

Are you looking for more do it yourself procedures (DIY) ? I recommend the Bentley BMW 3 series service manual for you. I got it and I think it’s a gold mine for us -BMW E36 Owners-. If you didn’t grab your copy yet, get it right now! I’m sure you’ll find this book worth every penny you’ve paid for. Get the Bentley BMW 3 series service manual

BMW E36 Headlights

 

Although, I know that my headlights are not the best headlights available for BMW E36, but I like them very much. First, because of their rings color (light blue) which fits perfectly on my silver car. Second, because they’re a single unit headlights with a corner. I hate the 2 part headlights. The problem is that my headlights are getting old and they always look dirty even after washing the car. So, I was thinking of replacing them and while I’m looking for some alternatives, I have found some great headlights that I didn’t even know they exist. I prepared a list of them below. Check them out. I’m sure that many of you hate the standard headlights of BMW E36 and are willing to give their cars a new look. I also added a rating for both style and quality for each of these products which is based totally on my taste. Have fun!

BMW E36 drifting around a column

 

I always loved watching car drifts especially BMW E36 ones, but what I enjoy the most is watching these drifts when a car is revolving around a column (or a person Haha). I know, that this is not that hard, but since I didn’t try this ever, I can’t be the judge. BTW, did you ever see a car drifting around a person before? I recall that I’ve seen a video like this but it was not for a BMW. It was for another car (classic car if I remember correctly) with two girls and the driver is revolving the car just one inch far from the girl’s feet. I really thought that was seriously insane, but very good to watch at the same time.

Enjoy…

First, the BMW E36 drift


Then the revolving around a girl

 

I hope you liked the video . . . if not, come on let’s see your videos 😉

Hi, First of all, I want to apologize for the slow posting week. I got Flu and I was unable to leave the bed. I still don’t feel well, but I’m feeling a little bit better, so, I thought I’d make this post before going to my bed again ;-). Bugatti Veyron, if you didn’t hear about this car, I think you’re missing much. Very much actually! The car is by far the fastest car on the planet. I first came to know about this car from the famous "Top Gear" show. Here are some specifications of the car:

Miss October 2007 . . . Sweet

 

First of all, I want to start this post by welcoming our new friend Kim who filled her information recently in the Welcome BMW E36 blog readers! post. For those of you who didn’t read that post yet, please do and let us hear from you. Simply, just fill your information in the comments box at the bottom of that post and you’re done. Very easy isn’t it?

Alright, now for today’s posts which I’m sure most of you know what it is about. For those who are new to this blog, I try to feature a new BMW E36 model every month that I think deserves to be featured here.

Today, our model is a BMW E36 328i 1998. I think it looks really good. I hope you like it and please excuse that broken fog light.

What do you think of this model? lets hear your opinions . . .

Enjoy…
