I know you could get quarter tax discs back then so will it end Oct 68 for a 3 month tax disc? Yes if it's 3 months, but wasn't it 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six-cylinder Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I am putting my E32 735i back on the road after a 1 year rest and it needs its power steering fluid topped up, the hand book says it also does the brakes somehow as well but when it comes to type of fluid it it says "BMW service stations know the factory approved grades". Anybody know for certain what fluid I should use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TataBobu Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Pentosin CHF 11S for suspension after OCT 1991 and steering (cold regions), ATF Dexron II E for steering except cold regions, DOT 4 for brakes. I'd go with Pentosin over ATF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On some of these aeros the bit covering the hook is on a hinge - lift it at the arm end and it should expose the wiper arm hook.

You might need to put the wipers into service mode, so they clear the bonnet. Depending on the age it's either in the onboard dash computer or you press the single sweep wipe after just taking the key out. Depending on the design, the aero blades can either simply unhook after bending the blade away or you remove a cover. Tickman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that is what is happening in my* Peugeot partner occasionally when it have taken the key out. Thanks for the information, now I know why.

In the case of the Dyane (Acadiane) I suspect not, because this 1985 example I found was left hand drive despite being UK registered from new.
