First time bmw owner

[Timmers Bimmer]

Just purchased an 87 325 coupe with 90k km. The site has already been a huge help. With a little more experience I will become an active poster as well.

My 325 needs all routine fluid maintenance completed and one of my first searches willl be for a power bleeder in Canada.

Wow that's very low mileage for 87'. Welcome to the werkz hope we can help you with all your questions and concerns

Welcome to Bimmerwerkz.

Where in Canada are you located?

[Timmers Bimmer]

The Wet Coast about 30 minutes outside of Vancouver in Coquitlam.

Very close to collectors plates for this one. It just 2 interior issues to deal with. The cloth fabric on the drivers bolster has a hole in the normal high wear spot and the drivers carpet just before the heal pad has a couple of cuts.

The car came with what looks like 2 sets (layers) of factory floor mats. How this carpet got worn/punctured through below 2 layers is a mystery. I will try a couple of local interior repair shops however I have found this US based company
84-91 BMW 325i Carpet 2 Door 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991. Total cost is $335 with mass backing and shipping to Blaine WA about 45 minutes from home.

I read on another site that some people are getting good used carpets from the wreckers and cleaning them up. There is a local BMW specialized wrecker close by and I will give them a call. I also need an ABS relay as the fuseable link is popped.

Ah, good to have more Canadian guys here.

The wreckers is in Duncan BC right? Ive used them for a power steering pump before. Hes a good guy and should get you what you need. Hes got tons of stuff.

Thank you for posting the link. I have never heard of them before. Looks like a pretty cool yard.
