The Cons:
1) When taking off from a dead stop the car will make a clunking sound if you stomp on the gas pedal and take off quickly. If you gently take off from a dead stop you won’t hear or feel the clunking sound. I’ve driven the car like this (knowing how to deal with it) for 3 plus years. The problem is either 3 (three) things- 1) Bad subframe brushing 2) Bad center support driveshaft bearing 3) Bad U Joint/Guido Flex Disc. I inspected the subframe brushings but they look ok but you really don’t know unless you use an acetylene torch to remove the old brushings and take a closer look. I also looked at the driveshaft and I didn’t feel a lot of excess play which would indicate a flex disc problem. Never got around to fixing the problem because it really didn’t bother me.
2) Current problem. Changed out alternator with a "brand new" OEM Bosch Alternator. However, now “all the dash on board idiot lights” light 💡 up on the dash like a Xmas tree. Needs to be reset. The biggest problem now is the battery won’t hold a charge. I get 12.6 Volts with Battery outside the car. As soon as I attach battery cables, voltage drops to 12.3 or 12.4 Volts. Once I start the car and drive around, the battery still doesn’t hold charge. As a result, once I stop the car, the car won’t start until I jump the car to get it started. I believe I have a parasitic electrical draw causing the battery to loose voltage or perhaps the new alternator is bad. Again, this is problem that the new owner must troubleshoot.
3) Air Conditioning used to blow cold but now it doesn’t. It probably needs a recharge with some R12.
4) Odometer stopped in January 2020 at 178,899. It probably has only 30 miles more than what the odometer currrently reads.
5) Bosch headlights have a crack on the lenses. Will include new replacement Bosch OEM lenses.
6) The dash has a stress crack but nothing horrible like most other E24 dashboards.
7) The Driver’s Seat- left hand “side” bolster is worn and torn. I cut a piece of leather and patched it over worn area.
Otherwise, the car drives great with great power. The transmission shifts as it should.
