| E34 gearbox (transmission) | 19 Aug 2005 00:05 GMT | 8 |
My 525i (1991, M50 engine, 5 speed) manual gearbox has suddenly gone a bit off. Gear changes are more difficult and notchy, with a distinct metal-on-metal feel instead of quite cushiony like normal, and a two-step feel to each shift. Three times in the last week it's not gone into ...

Okay, this might sound like a crazy plan, but it's my last resort... Up until the beginning of this month I had a nice reliable 325TD auto saloon with most of the extras, specifically aircon. That was until Mr white van man decided to park into the back of it from 40mph when I

I'm not a mechanic, although I try to do enough DIY basics. Haven't had this E46 very long.Question is: What is this thing right beside the washer fluid reservoir. Its round with a half circle cap on the top. Removing the top unveils what looks like a sponge filter.
