Hello! Are going to paint part of the car and the side skirts. Also going to rust-treat the corners under there. How do I remove the expanding rivets along the bottom of the the side skirt? Of course I have to order new ones but is it a effective way to remove them?? Just a pin in the middle and push the pin in OR?
Thank you!
OK...maybe it´s a good idea to change both pulleys then. Also going to change both belts and the remaining coolant hoses. The car is now 18 years old, is it recommended to change more...thinking about fan blade, waterpump itself, tensioners?
Thanks Reinhard!
Well, did stop the fan with a rolled up newspaper. The sound is still there. And my firm knocks was not very violent...next time I will buy the "special holding tool" (Ebay) 
The sound wasn't there before the job. So it looks like it is a connection here

Can someone point me in the right direction? This sound appeared after I changed the thermostat, flushed and changed the coolant from BMW blue to red longlife. Can't really see the connection here. I did give the 32 mm fan nut a couple of firm knocks to change the fan and get better acess to work and change the hoses. Did not come loose so I decided not to deal with this for now.
Thought it was worth a try to upload the video here, hoping someone recognizes this noise?
Have been searching the forum and have a feeling it could be the belt tensioners.Could it be soaking it all when flushing? Or waterpump-bearing? Don't really know, but as I said...it appeared after this job was done! The noise does increase with rpm. Temp is steady 12 o'clock. And warms up much faster with the new thermostat:)
Thank you for any advice!

Yes, 51711970246 http://www.bmwetk.com/parts-ca…31/51/51_2000/51711970246 is what I have today.
51712252004 directs me to the same picture but for 850 CSI M-technic supplement. I have a individual with factory equipped CSI bumpers/diffuser etc.For me to cover the front-opening and the horns I need this part.A longer/deeper edition than the lower one in the picture in the first post.I know CSI with AHK have an extra cooler and so on and are somewhat different. But I can´t see any reason that I can´t use this?
Anyone know what M-technic really means? Is it just because it´s an Individual with the CSI bumpers, M-tech steering wheel and so on?
Thanks!

" The bottom part in the picture fits between the upper surface of the csi spoiler lip and the lower edge of the radiator"
Yes, then I do not see the horns when I stand in front of the car. That is what I´m after. Didn´t mean cover them entirely...
Thank you MB
Og Terje, husker jeg kikka på bilen din når du hadde den på bukk i Sverige. Så du hadde den frontdingsen. Men kan ikke huske du hadde beskyttelsesplata under? Begynner nesten bli usikker sjøl jeg nå... får sjekke når jeg kommer hjem
Have the CSI styling. Looks really stupid with the horns hanging where they do. Looks like I miss the two pieces ( see picture attached).
#51712252004 M tech air duct (Which cover the horns) Have a short edition about half the dept of the one in the picture attached. And it does not cover the horns.
#51711970184 Engine compartment screening What about this? Do most of you have this?
Are they connected in any way? No matter, I need to have both. Easy install?
Thanks

What about these? Searched for Spiegler on Ebay but couldn´t find them. Always open for good advices Wokke
Very good work, thank you
So long they are good at stopping, and not squiking I can live with some dust 
Zitat von Jin;81203Alles anzeigenUpdate:
The new generation EBC Redstuff went in today - I'm not 100% sure what they replaced but they were very very dusty.
initial thoughts are that the stopping power is very good - again not sure what I had in there before but the pedal feel is much better and I can really modulate the brake force quite easily.
Will report on dust levels soon
Ordered EBC redstuff today. Are there slots for the wear-sensors on them? If not...no big deal really
Joda...stadig innpå

Zitat von IvanT;87488Bugger, I thought it was €151 'Buy Now'. It's auction though! I hate auctions. Also, as we all want one, we're going to be bidding against each other pushing the price up, that's commerce I guess! I think I'll send mine to M8-Enzo after all... If anybody wants M8-Enzo's details, give me an email address and I'll forward the email he sent me. As I said previously, looks to be very professional.
Regards,
Ivan
PS... I LOVE auctions
