In this episode of Restore It, I continue with the BMW E30 325i Touring restoration. The main goal of this episode is to get the car at least cranking, if not running and idling. It's been four years since the car was last started and it's refusing to crank. I also remove the old foam and glue from the headliner, take a look at the rusty sunroof panel and dismantle the wing mirrors in preparation for shot blasting and painting.

Damn… 4 years already 😮 I remember, when you took the coupe apart… Than from UK to Spain, the engine bay makeover of the touring. The M3 Series. When I saw you fixing the car with the absolut minimum of equipment back in the days, I was so motivated to fix my own touring, which is unfortunately a gigantic rust bucket! 😂 Keep it up, love from Germany ❤️🔥

I know right... Time flies! It's funny you should say that, Antonio (M3 owner) sent me some photos of him driving it in Spain. Its all done and I hope to meet up with him soon and do some filming.

@@RestoreItthe funny thing about my Touring is: I started disassembling and then got stuck, 6 years ago. Now my grandma gave me her Sedan, also very rusty, cause she didn’t manage to drive without power steering. So I got some other e30 project in between my touring as well. I think it’s some kind of cycle. Whenever you get one e30, another one isn’t that far away. But man, great cars. Little bit rusty and thirsty sometimes ^^

The spare cable is for a factory option cd changer that was usually a kenwood, and the wing mirrors won't separate from the base units without damage meaning you won't get them back together, i tried when i restored the 325i did, it is possible with newer models with a special tool that basically drills out the sleeve holding them together and anothe special tool to press in a new one with a new spring

Yes it looks it... I think i'd have to cut out a section of the middle to make sure it was clean on the inside... Bit of a nightmare, but could be fun!

My panel is rusted too, I’m going the delete route I think.

dump the sunroof and get another one. Time better spent on other things. JMO.

I agree, I will be talking in all the touring episodes to come from now on. I just ran out of time on this one, sadly.

Please - wear some gloves when handling any car fluids & tool fluids. They're in fact really hazardous and we just get used to them such that we don't care. They're not much to have on skin or breathe few times, but repairing as cars hobby or job in long term really gets to your health. This may be really cumbersome (with filming in meantime especially) but it's worth it? Side note: We don't think much of it, but also really exposed to chemicals as proffesionals are (especially art) painters, leaving them to many ailments in their later years.

Thanks, WestSarly, solid advice and you're absolutely right. I'll be more careful in the future.

Your plugs looked very dirty. Also check the air pipes incase they have holes or rips from air filter box back towards engine. Also by not having throttle cable connected the butterfly valve in throttle body would’ve been fully closed and thus starving engine of air. Once u connected that it started. I would flush fuel lines as well and clean injectors out. Probably have crud build up on the injector filters.

Great comment, thanks Shaz. I'll check all of those things in the next episode and see how I get on with it. Much appreciated mate.

seems to me like you didn’t have the afm connected in the first attempts to start the car… possibly flodded it too and that’s why it ran a bit shit for a while
