cracked head....ouch! by
Antonio Garcia
Got a 1990 325i (E30/M20) that was overheating, but with no apparent
pressure loss in the cooling system and no obvious leaks. Took it to H&B
in Berkeley, CA and they took the cylinder head off.
The head gasket itself looked ok, although it looked as if the head itself
might have slid around a bit...

E38 740i 1996 -- front end "shimmy" when braking. Could it be JUST the rotors? by
Hugh Gundersen
Hi Folks
I recently changed the front pads on my 740 E38.
Strange thing although they were listed as E38 they were slightly different to the ones fitted in as

ok, but one of the ball-joints at the front had collapsed, does this sound

insurance. A few years ago, my friend did. She was not working and had
just lost her car insurance. She and her family were coming back from
filing bankruptcy. She got confused with the signs and hit Mary K Meyer
