Looking for someone to help

poptart56 · 03-02-2018, 12:05 PM

Like it says, I'm looking for someone to help me do some work on my car, I'm doing oil filter housing gasket and cooler gasket. I have the parts, I just don't have any tools right now. I was planning on slowly building up my tool collection but this thing sprung an oil leak on the ofhg that I need to replace ASAP.

Basically just hand tools, I have jacks and jack stands. I can supply much beer and food for anyone's help.

I live in Modesto but I can travel, I figure this isn't too bad of a job, heard only a few hours to complete.

Thanks in advance.

If I remember correctly, the only tools required would be a basic ratchet/socket set, and a t20 torx nut driver. Maybe $30 in tools at a local parts store. The job itself is pretty straightforward and there are plenty of threads/youtube videos to help, although I would plan on a little longer completion time if you aren't very familiar with working on the car. Just my 2 cents.

I know it's not much, but all the little things add up, I don't have anything right now. I was just throwing it out there, plus it'd be cool to meet a fellow owner around here who doesn't just own a bmw but really drives and works on it.

I came from the 4x4 Toyota world, we were a big bunch of gear heads.

Many members are willing to help if you are close by. But Modesto...
