| 1994 | SUSPENSION:REAR | SUB FRAME RIPS APART FROM UNDER BODY OF CAR. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 92-98 3 SERIES OF BMW CARS. THESE CAR ARE GENERALLY KNOWN AS BODY MODEL E36. I BELONG TO SEVERAL BMW OWNWERS SITES IN THE WEB AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, WHERE IT STARTS SLOWLY WITH JUST A CLICK UNTIL IT IT BECOMES A CLUNCK WHEN CHANGING GEARS AND THEM IT IS TOO LATE. THIS IS ONE STORY. HTTP://BIMMER.ROADFLY.ORG/BMW/FORUMS/E36/5783036-1.HTML I'M NOT SURE IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY DEATS FROM THIS, YET. NUMBER OF FAILURES IT SEEMS OVER 100. INJURED, NOT SURE BUT I'M SURE THERE ARE POTENTIAL FOR THAT.*AK |
