my BMW e30 316 from 1990 has a strange problem:
when changing gear and giving it about half throttle, the engine sometimes

My friend's E30 316i 5sp manual is apparently stuck in reverse. He says it
doesn't look like an external linkage problem. It went into reverse with no
nasty noises, but just won't come out again. Is there any common causes for

I have a 97 BMW 528 and the interior fan has died.

especially when they just purchased in the last two months, or so, or

The St. Louis BMW Club is holding a national BMW event here in March of
2006.  I'm in charge of finding vendors to do presentations to the
attendees (we're expecting between 250 and 500 people for the 4-day
event).  I would like to find a company here in the US (preferably in

I dropped off many parts at my mechanic of choice, and left the bmw there.
He looked in the trunk and said "All that?" "yes please".
In the process of doing everything, we discovered that it was all needed,
and I wasn't going "overboard", and discovered a few other things along

Hi guys, I've been thinking about getting an MP3-capable HU to replace
the Business CD unit in my 2000 323i.  I'm on the road in the boonies a
lot, and there are a few radio stations I really like in fringe areas,

My fiance's 1995 525i died on her unexpectedly yesterday.  When the key is
inserted into the ignition, it just turns without any response at all.  Also,
