BMW E36 Blog

I have been thinking in the last couple days about the readers here who read my posts regularly and just thought how cool it would be to get to know each and everyone of you. I know that the blog doesn’t have a huge number of readers, but I guess that having a little number of readers who really care about a topic is much better than a very large number of readers who don’t really care much about it. I think that my readers are a group of BMW E36 enthusiasts (maybe drivers too . . . I don’t know) who just enjoy every second of life when they’re behind their E36 wheel.

OK, building on what I just said, how about you submit a comment on this post introducing yourself to the community in here? Please feel free to post whatever you like in here and in case you want to follow me, you can write your information like me below

For those of you who doesn’t know what Forza is (like me yesterday 😉 ). It’s a car racing video game for Microsoft XBOX. Its full name is Forza Motorsport 2. If you want some screenshots for the game, look here. At first I saw some screenshots of cars that were taken from the game and I couldn’t really believe that these cars are not real because of the cars drawing quality. When I saw the watermark on the photos I decided to look more into it and learned about this game. So, I didn’t really play this game YET, also, because I have PS2 🙁 not XBOX.

The photos that I found were these, take a look:

Awesome … aren’t they? I also found some videos of BMW E36 M3 cars modified on this game

Take a look . . .  

Man… the game seems really cool and I’m looking forward to play it and see how my M3 will perform in there!

Want to get this game? check this out…

This is a new video that I found on YouTube. It’s for 2 BMW E36 doing some crazy drifting and I have to be honest, they’re good, very good. I also like both cars very much as they look great and seem to be well maintained. The only thing I hate about this is that the drifting is being made in open streets with traffic which can be very serious and can make fatal accidents. Fortunately, there are no accidents in the video. I think you should see it.

Take a look . . .  

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

Hi Guys,

   I found a review for the new BMW M3 2008 and I decided to post it here. The car looks great and performs great too. Take a look and let me know what you think. Do you think BMW can get any better ? We will see about that.

Take a look . . .  

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

Hi Guys,

If your car is showing wrong outside temperature ( -37C or -35F ) like mine, this means that you have a faulty outside temperature sensor (temp sensor) which seems to be a very common problem in the BMW E36 by the way. At first, I thought it’s a hard problem to solve and decided to ignore it, but I found that replacing this sensor is straight forward if you know where it is located. I found some photos of it that you may find useful in locating and then replacing it.

I hope I will be able to fix this problem in my car this weekend. I think you too should do it if it’s broken.

Disclaimer: Use this info at your own risk!! I’m not responsible if this didn’t work for you.

This is where you can find the temp sensor, pretty clever, huh?

 

 

This is a photo of a brand new temp sensor
