I accidently jacked my car which is a bmw 323i year 2000 manual vehicle by the rear passenger wheel which just so happens to be right near the gas tank on that vehicle which just so happened to damage the gas tank on that vehicle. Now i want to replace the gas tank by a new one because once the gas tank is at quarter full the car can kill out at anytime because the suction unit cannot get to the quarter tank remainning due to the massive dent in the tank this has already happened at a major intersection where i had to run up a hill to get enough gas to bring her over a quarter then run back down the hill to this god for saken vehicle fill her up and she starts now we are off to the gas station obvioulsly so this does not happen again in tne near future

Sticks shifts, that I love. for 50 year driving.
and restoring cars.
22 years old and can be repaired
not sure me if gear shift is direct to box or crazy cable drive.?
sure cable snapped.
if it is really in gear,
the clutch blown up, disk now just rivets no friction face there.
or PP pressure plate collapse.

if the MC/slave fails the clutch locks up sold.
yours is opposite ,it slips or shifter is bad (actual)
seem this box has remove ( to rear far) shift linkage
one must be sure this link works and not pull the box only too find out the link is dead, for simple reasons. bad link.
it looks like and old vw bug shifter, (1968 mine) but in reverse.
and vastly shorted link

see this photo.

arrow left pin broke or all parts on the right. bad,
all these parts go to the internal shift rails and forks.

The following video will give you an idea on how to change the headlight in your BMW 323i:


Hope that helps!

What are you looking to know you said what happened

I rencently had the same problem. Lasted a week or two before it threw a code. Ended up just being a camshaft position sensor. Replaced sensor, now it runs like new. Just be careful with the crankcase breather hose, it's very brittle!

Try abebooks website. They are international and usually very good.

Ther are so many variations from year to year if I were you I would just call the service department of your local Toyota dealer they can tell you exactly where to look or purchase a Haynes repair manual this is a valuable book to have aif you plan to own the vehicle for more than 3 years.

1 - rotate tires 2- tire balance 3 - rear wheel bearing but not likly in your case ,,,good luck ,,,Joe

Please consult your owners manual. The manufacture is very specific about where to jack this car for safety reasons. If you do not have a manual, buy one and or talk to the dealer about this issue

There could be numerous problems going wrong. Your car is rear wheel drive so it could very well be a bad wheel bearing. If it is extremely loose it can cause a shake in your steering wheel. You may want to check on the condition of your tires and rims especially the left front. A bad tire can cause a shake and pull. If you know how to use your car jack you can try jacking the vehicle up, and put both hands on your front wheel and move it manually to see if there is looseness. Most shops only charge about 1/2 hour to shake down the front end. BMW parts are expensive so be prepared!
