Re: Fluid level

I really appreciate you getting back to me.

Fluid level

1988 BMW E30 318i TC build

Re: Damage to the 5 Series F10's chassis and a dead spot in the steering

I appreciate your response. Do I have this assumption about the need for a new steering rack correct? Would it be worthwhile for me to pay £149 to have my BMW analysed?
