Hi everyone Im new to my 318i e36, I have just purchased a 1993 e36
318i and It is in immaculate cond and came with all bmw service history
84,000klms on the dash and drives great. The guy I bought the car off
was a bit of a dummy and also was a bit suspect...
I noticed the car was not maintaining a constant idle which didnt bother
me to much but I took it to a bmw service garage and the owner was a
reel worry:devil: I told him it was the idle control and he said you dont
just guess with these cars who told you that waw awa waw told me that
the car probably needed a new cable and charged me $30 just to open the bonnet Bad mechanic:bloated: I took the car back home removed the idle control and cleaned it with throttle body cleaner an presto the
idle was normal Im very pleased as the mechanic said $ where to be spent for that specific idle problem, what Im wanting to do next is to clean the o2 sensor but I dont have a hoist will that be a problem?
if any one has any pics of the location that would be great Im pretty sure if i look near the exhaust manifold i should find it ..
Thanks for the read Pipes:smoka:

the sensor is located above your cat converter
