1989 325iS Coupe 5 speed - 101,675

just changed Timing, AC, ALT, PS belts, distributor and rotor, guibo and center driveshaft bearing, BMW coolant, upper and lower rad hoses, Mobil 10w30 oil, redline 70w80 GL-4 trans oil, redline 75w90 GL-5+ dif oil, should be good for a while :)

Whats the expected lifetime of an E30 LSD as long as it was well maintained?

I have just over 150k on my '89 - within the last 1,000 miles I've repalced water pump, t-belt & tensioner, radiator, fan blade, both CV axles, front and rear sway bar links, and guibo. Getting her ready for the driving school, its at Phoenix Int'l Raceway fro the first time this year. We get to take the back stretch, turns 3 &4, the front stretch, then a road coarse laid out in the middle that the Grand American and LeMans cars did.

The '87 has just over 152k - Its gotten a new driveshaft, lower control arm bushings, plugs and a valve adjustment about 1,000 ago.

where did you get you drive shaft and how much did you drop on it?
I got it from Beyer Drivelines in Chandler,AZ. I think they only sell to shops, though. I don't remember how much I paid, I'll check the records at work tomorrow.
It arrived very proffesionally packed in a big tube (you ship the core back in the same tube), and I was very impressed with the build quality.
Their web site is www.beyerdriveline.com

Mine's done 127,000 KM (79,395 miles) in 14 years!!! It's all completely standard - except for the stereo. I've had the car for nearly 2 years and have only just done 10,000KM. She lives a very sheltered life [doorpeek]
